BACKGROUND: The importance of publication ethics has recently been emphasized.Therefore, inquiries regarding dual publications were analyzed to obtain basic data on whether domestic anesthetists recognized its importance and understood its practicalities. METHODS: The data for the questionnaire was collected from doctors who participated in a review workshop with full consent. A total of 15 questions were classified into 3 categories:a general interest regarding the ethics of publication, personal objective opinions and reactivity toward an illegal act in this regard. RESULTS: Thirty-eight participants responded spontaneously to the questionnaire.Thirty-six participants were aware of the principle of dual publications and 35 participants were aware of the contents in the home page.Twenty participants had contact with lectures or other media related to redundant publishing.Fourteen participants answered 'yes' regarding their colleague in an illegal action.However, 25 participants said that they were prepared to report an illegal act to the department or society.Only 5 participants tried to take into consideration ethical issues of dual publication while 15 participants were tempted regarding dual publication while writing a paper.Twenty-seven participants agreed with the principle of duplicate or illegal publication.Thirty participants were prepared to have a consistent attitude toward any individual that committed a violation against publication ethics.Nineteen participants worried about the possibility of exposure of an illegal publication. CONCLUSIONS: According to the development of a watch system, dual publication can easily be detected. Regular education regarding publication ethics and notification to members to prevent an illegal act is necessary.

This special May issue of Clinical Endoscopy discusses the tutorial contents dealing with either the diagnostic or therapeutic gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy that contain very fundamental and essential points in this filed. The seminar of Korean Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (KSGE) had positioned as one of prime educational seminars covering the very beginner to advanced experts of GI endoscopy. Besides of four rooms allocated for each lecture, two additional rooms were open for either live demonstration or hands-on course, covering totally 20 sessions including one special lecture. Among these prestigious lectures, 12 lectures were selected for the current review articles in this special issue of Clinical Endoscopy journal. Basic course for beginner to advanced tips to expert were all covered in this seminar. This introductory review prepared by four associated editors of Clinical Endoscopy contained core contents divided into four sessions-upper gut, lower gut, pancreaticobiliary, and specialized topic session part-to enhance understandings not covered by enlisted review articles in this issue.

PURPOSE: The evaluation of a lecture by students is one of the good way to improve a lecture. In one medical school, we started one-year-integrated-lecture curriculum for sophomore. And we evaluated lectures using formal lecture evaluation sheet after completion of each integrated lectures. The results were fed back to lecturers. But lecturers were indifferent to the results. So we performed this study to evaluate the current lecture evaluation method. METHODS: Answering patterns of evaluation sheets were reviewed. 50 students entitled to integrated lectures were given structured questions. 44 of them recovered. And randomly selected 10 students were interviewed. RESULTS: Analysis of evaluation sheets showed that some students checked the items just for fun. More than half of the students answered that they did not check the questions seriously. Reasons why the evaluation of lectures were not going well were; students were not trained to evaluate something; evaluation sheet was not designed to evaluate individual lecturer; listed items were too many in number and inappropriate; some students were suspicious about the impact of evaluation of lectures. In addition to this, it was revealed that students thought the timing of evaluation of lecture was important, too. CONCLUSION: Indifference of lecturers to the results is one form of resistance to the evaluation of lectures by students. To make evaluation of lectures effective, numbers and contents of evaluation items must be selected carefully, students need to be trained, and adequate evaluation timing should be determined with frequent feed backs.

A flipped classroom is a learner centered approach in which the learner is responsible to attend the class with basic understanding of the subject to fully participate and engage in discussions. The aim of this study was to evaluate students' perception of flipped classroom approach for neuroanatomy module and assess the impact on their performance and attitudes. The subject chosen to evaluate the flipped classroom model for first year medical students was clinical neuroanatomy. One hundred and thirty first year medical students participated in the study module. Students were divided into five groups and five case scenarios pertaining to various clinically relevant regions of the neuraxis, with varying anatomical complexity were generated. The pre- and post-tests were designed to specifically test the declared learning objectives of the session. The perception of the students regarding this model of teaching and learning was also evaluated. Eighty-six percent of students felt that the flipped classroom approach was better at fulfilling the stated learning objectives than the conventional didactic teaching, 92% felt that the work-sheet with questions provided prior to the class enabled a better understanding of the subject and 87% were of the opinion that the web sources with references kindled a greater interest to read as compared with didactic lectures. The paired t test showed highly significant differences between the pre and post-test scores. Student response to the flipped classroom structure was largely positive, indicating it to be an approach worth pursuing in future years.

The purposes of this study are to describe some of the basic and practical services available on the internet, and to evaluate the efficacy of a lecture using the internet together with a traditional classroom lecture. Growing demands for better education and increasing amount of knowledge have brought up the need to use new methods in learning. Information and communication technology has given new opportunities and challenges in the field of education. Especially, the internet is creating information and communication spaces that are removing the traditional boundaries of time and location. It offers new ways to learn and communicate in the field of medical education. Medicine is a very suitable area to use WWW-based teaching, because a great part of it is based on visually learned topics. The internet carries vast quantities of information in all different formats and modalities such as text, figures, video and audio. Teaching and learning are complex processes, and a wide variety of techniques and facilities are needed for each student and subject, which may vary at different times. The internet will not, and should not, replace traditional classroom lectures or tutorials, but it dose have the ability to add value to these traditional teaching techniques and to make the life of the student and teacher a little easier, more varied and possibly more interesting. Preliminary results show that this kind of lecture is useful in teaching medicine, especially in self-oriented learning, but cannot replace totally a clinical teacher's share in the learning process. Feedback from the users shows that this education is widely used and needed. The internet is likely to play more important roles in many aspects of medicine in the future.

For the education, sharing the information and research for medical mycology, the Korean Society for Medical Mycology (KSMM) was established in March 9, 1994. Since 1994, meetings of the KSMM have been held annually in June, workshop in August, and symposium in November. The First Symposium Workshop of the KSMM was held on July 12, 1997. Main topics for lectures and practices included identification and microscopic findings of dermatophytes. Also identification of unidentified pathogenic organisms, Malassezia, and Candida were done. The First Mycology Workshop of the KSMM was held on 14 November 1998. Main topics for lectures and practices included identification and microscopic findings of dermatophytes. Also identification of unidentified pathogenic organisms, Malassezia, and Candida were done. Since December 1996, Korean Journal of Medical Mycology, official journal of the KSMM, had been published biannually. Since volume 5 in 2000, it has been published quarterly and one hundred forty copies have been distributed in worldwide.
