Summary: | To test the effectiveness of clinical supervision as an assessment method in the practices of
faculty members attending PBL courses, to determine the effectiveness of the courses and to
discuss its conformity for faculties of medicine.Clinical supervision and peer consultation
methods were used to evaluate the performance of the 34 faculty members who took charge
in Problem Based Learning modules. The students, the faculty members themselves, the
clinical supervisor and the peer consultants participated in the evaluation.The satisfactory and
underdeveloped skills of the faculty members, which they need throughout the
implementation steps of PBL, were determined. Overall, the faculty members included in the
study were found to be successful. As for the quantitative results, they indicate the faculty
members’ opinion that the method may ensure standardization and improve the quality of the
education. However, there are also some faculty members who are dissatisfied with the
method and think that it is time-consuming.The obtained data suggest that peer consultation
and clinical supervision can be applied in medical schools and may help faculty members
develop their professional skills. |
