Abstract:
The curriculum evaluation by students was introduced into the two-weeks clinical curriculum of fifth years students at Saga Medical School, Department of Anesthesiology. The evaluation form is consisted of forty questions with the eleven figures from -5 to +5. These questionaries were divided into seven parts and covered instructors' evaluation and the minute course evaluation. This evaluation was done anonymously at the end of the two-weeks clinical course in Anesthesiology.
The analysis was done as follows: 1) divided up into the positive group, the neutral group and the negative group; 2) difined the positive rate, the negative rate and the effective rate; 3) presented these rates visually.
The result runs as follows: 1) the effective rate is proportional to the interaction between instructors and students; 2) a quick feedback can be done on instructors.
Finally, the important thing for medical education is not only curriculum but the interaction between instructors and students. In this sense, this trial in Saga Medical School is significant for medical education.
