A Study on the Tutorial System in Gifu University School of Medicine / 医学教育

ABSTRACT

Gifu University School of Medicine has introduced a new learning method for medical science, named tutorial system. To assess the efficacy of the method, we conducted a questionnaire survey of students' medical knowledge, attitudes to learning, communication ability, and social behavior. The questionnaire was given to instructors/attending physicians involved in clinical education. Results of the evaluation were compared to those of previous medical students. Our results suggest that the tutorial system in our medical school result in an improvement over the previous curricula.
