Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: The experiences of medical students and professors regarding the medical education process were examined from various angles and compared with each other to obtain implications for the reorganization of medical education, such as the method of education and evaluation.
Methods: A qualitative study was conducted using online non-face-to-face focus group discussions (FGDs) to evaluate the experiences and perceptions of medical students and medical school professors regarding the medical education process. The results of five FGDs with 24 medical students and three FGDs with 14 medical professors were analyzed using the conventional content analysis method.
Results: Medical students sympathize with the need for various educational contents, but strongly complained about the enormous amount of study. In addition, the medical students emphasized the need for basic medical education courses, including humanities and social studies classes. Professors also recognized the absence of a student-centered curriculum as a problem. In addition, it was emphasized that professors are in an environment where it is difficult for them to work hard in class. Professors agreed on the need for improvement in the medical school curriculum, but had varying levels of expectations. Both students and professors needed an evaluation standard suitable for the educational method, and the students insisted that the standard and method should be unified.
Conclusion: It is expected that this study will contribute as evidence for the change and development of medical education necessary for the present era.
