Numerically coded learning objectives: a simple solution to follow-up problem of outcomes-based curriculain medical education
Özet
Demonstrating specific competencies in order to graduate from medical schools is essential for students and identifying ways to demonstrate students have had these competencies for medical schools. Medical education is making a fundamental transition from a focus on teaching to a focus on learning. Therefore, students and schools can be held increasing accountable for their learning outcomes and objectives. Establishing learning objectives to guide the design and content of an educational program is a very important principle which supported by educational theory and practice. The degree of applicability of numerical coding system needs to be described on block/system based integrated entire curriculum of faculty. Learning Objectives play roles as a guide and framework for medical students in their efforts on graduation from medical schools. These will assist students with understanding the scope of knowledge, skills, values and attitudes expected of them by the end of undergraduate medical education. Well-defined learning objectives will lead the faculty to development of appropriate systems of student evaluation.
