Student Performance Evaluation
Working with Clerkship Directors and Administrators, Student Services and others in Academic Affairs, the Medical Education Office has updated and improved the clinical student evaluation for the 2008-09 academic year.
With UWSMPH’s move toward building a competency-based curriculum with performance-based assessment of competencies, the ACGME competency structure was adopted when developing the new evaluation tool. The goals are to support the continuum of medical education, linking undergraduate and graduate education, and to address the national calls for medical education reform using the ACGME competency framework.
Now, faculty can assess students on areas like professionalism and interpersonal communication early in their medical training, with the intention and understanding that they will be assessed similarly as residents.
