Abstract:
The learning of problem-solving skills at the bedside in our department was investigated by comparing the results of student self-evaluations with teacher evaluations before and after the bedside learning (BSL) course. Students evaluated their behavior highly in terms of 1) positiveness, 2) motivation, and 3) bedside manner. However, they evaluated their medical competence poorly in terms of the ability to 4) perform physical examinations, 5) analyze medical histories and clinical findings, 6) interpret ECG and X-ray films, and 7) gather data, and 8) recall medical knowledge.
The results of the student self-evaluations on items 5) to 8) were compared to those of the teacher evaluations before the BSL course (term examination in the fourth year) and after the BSL course. The student self-evaluations were not correlated with the two teacher evaluations, but there was a very close correlation between the two teacher evaluations.
