A Survey on the Present Status of the Workshop for Faculty Development at Medical Schools in Japan / 医学教育

ABSTRACT

We used questionnnaires to study the present status of the workshop for faculty development at medical schools in Japan in February 2001. All the questionnaires were filled and returned by 100%(80) of 80 medical schools. Although only 50%(40) of schools had the workshop in 1996, the workshop of teaching staff for faculty development was carried out at 92.5%(74) of schools in 2001. But, the rate of teaching staff worked the curriculum planning as the principle of medical education, was only about 10 to 20%.
