The practice of cultivating gastroenterological postgraduates based on the innovation of "dual synergy ability" / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Under the background of "Medical Education Synergy", the clinical practice ability of postgraduates has been significantly improved, and the post competency has been enhanced. However, the "cultivation goal orientation" focuses on clinical practice, the education management department has weakened the cultivation of scientific research literacy, and the postgraduate tutors have not paid enough attention. As a result, the cultivation of scientific research literacy of professional degree postgraduates is seriously affected, and their scientific research ability is obviously weak. Taking gastroenterology as an example, by optimizing the course setting and rotation plan arrangement, attaching importance to the management of the graduate management department and the tutor responsibility system, and strengthening the application of interdisciplinary in the innovation and development of disciplines, we have explored an educational plan for cultivating professional degree postgraduates. The clinical practice and clinical research capabilities of postgraduates majoring in gastroenterology have been synergistically developed with remarkable results.

Alumni Experience on Postgraduate Medical Training in Transfusion Medicine in Malaysia

@#Introduction: Transfusion Medicine is an evolving filed which integrates multidisciplinary science in providing safe blood and blood products for patients. With an increasing demand for Transfusion Medicine training in Malaysia, a formal survey is needed to evaluate the postgraduate Transfusion Medicine programme offered by Advanced Medical and Dental Institute, Universiti Sains Malaysia to identify areas of deficiency based on the alumni experiences. Methods: An English language survey form was developed specifically to assess the programme contents (overall contents, learning experience in each year, and support in research), the alumni perception on soft-skills gained during the study, and the outcome of the programme. The survey forms were distributed to all alumni between March 2018 and October 2018 via e-mail or hand-delivered. Results: The survey response rate was 79% (37 of 47). A majority (97%) of the transfusion medicine specialists (TMS) in this study reported that the course offered in the program was relevant to their current job. The learning experience which includes course content, student’s placement, facilities, and support in research) were rated between satisfactory and good. Communicating effectively through speaking was the highest reported soft-skill gained during the programme, whereas communicating effectively in writing was the lowest soft-skill gained. On the programme outcome, all TMS agreed that this programme will produce qualified and well trained specialists for current working market. Conclusion: Some improvement in the programme contents and teaching activities are needed to equip the future TMS for the nation.

Construction of dynamic assessment system for clinical medicine master degree tutors of local medi-cal colleges / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Based on the idea of science, feasibility, development and characteristics; and the poli-cies or regulations of our country, we try to discourse the dynamic assessment system of clinical medicine master degree tutors from the assessment aim, assessment objects, annual evaluation, assessment content, assessment indicators and scoring criteria, and the results of the assessment and treatment. We hope our works can provide some constructive insights for the construction and development of dynamic assessment system on tutors.
