摘要:

SummarySome problems common to many disciplines are briefly examined. One of the problems, that of an information overload, was recognized in medical education already twenty years ago; since then the situation has become much more acute. We have attempted to give a numerical value to the information content of a number of courses and these highlight the overload in the medical course.

摘要:

SummaryA postal questionnaire was distributed to all students who had discontinued, for any reason, their studies at Aberdeen Medical School. Opinions were sought about their experiences while there, as well as their reactions to the discontinuation therefrom. Claiming that learning to cope with stress was an essential aspect of their professional development, these students were dissatisfied with the extent to which the staff responded to students in need and took their problems not to professional welfare agencies but mainly to family and friends. Almost unanimously they supported the notion of a Student Counselling Service. Problems of adaptation and content of studies were the two items regarded as having made the greatest contribution to their discontinuation. For some of these students and their families, discontinuation had been a distressing experience, but all but one student agreed that they had gained something from their period at medical school, however brief. The medical school can learn much from those who pass out prematurely and not only from those successful on the final day.

摘要:

SummaryThe purpose of this study was to find out whether taxonomic classification of MCQ items reflected differences in student behaviour. The data from one of this University's official open‐book exams, in which students answer sixty MCQ items distributed over twelve content‐areas of physiology were examined. The responses from all 153 candidates were then subjected to factor analysis. Analysis of individual item scores was unrewarding. Analysis of scores for item‐groups based on taxonomy and content resulted in the identification of three factors, which carried predominant loadings from recall or look‐up items, interpretation items, and problem‐solving items, res
