|
This preliminary study aims to determine how medical students perceive character education in Korea. A structured survey questionnaire to 10 medical students was conducted between September and December 2018. Out of them, 6 students replied. Students’ responses were classified into elements which were also categorized. Twenty-nine core elements of characters in 8 categories were verified that are essential for doctors and the need for character education. The most frequently suggested categories were “care and respect”, “empathy and communication”, and “responsibility and calling”. Participants also said that various forms of character education are necessary and that they were not satisfied with the character education regarding teaching methods. The results verified the character traits that are most essential for doctors and problems related to current character education. The above results will be helpful to prepare the character education curriculum in medical schools.
