ABSTRACT
Monitoring the quality of well-established multisite clerkships can be aided by the use of trend analysis and graphic-oriented presentations. Five years of data on student performance, experience, and perceptions are reported for an obstetrics and gynecology clerkship offered at eight geographically dispersed sites. Of the five measures of student performance, two (final written and oral examinations) showed major changes. Trends also appeared in student participation in deliveries and student ratings of teaching over time. The results of these analyses were communicated to faculty at each site and used to make improvements in the clerkship. The implications and use of these longitudinal evaluation procedures are discussed.
