Development and evaluation of teaching course in general practice
2009
: The further development of a teaching course in general practice medicine for fifth year students at Glasgow University is described. Lessons learnt from a previous experimental course have been applied: eight afternoon sessions of a structured nature and related to prescribed objectives and a syllabus were given to small groups of students. Questionnaires showed that the in-depth study of selected patients in their own homes, with student involvement in the preparation of problem lists for group discussion were thought by the students to be valuable. An objective assessment of the course using the modified essay question technique showed an improvement in factual clinical knowledge (P less than 0.05) and more importantly in areas relating to the general practice content of the teaching (P less than 0.001).
