Trial of Student Evaluations of the Didactic Lectures of One Instructor (1992-1994) / 医学教育

ABSTRACT

As the second phase of a trial of student evaluations of didactic lectures, a modified questionnaire (B5 type, consisting of seven items, each having five multiple-choice responses and more space for written responses) was filled out anonymously by all students receiving didactic lectures of one instructor in a preventive medicine and community health course from 1992 through 1994. The frequency of written responses was 51.8% higher than in our previous trial (1990-91). Multivariate analysis was also applied to investigate the items most related to the summative assessment. The minimal essential questionnaire items and the necessity of space for written responses in frequent trials is discussed.
