Midclerkship feedback in the surgical clerkship: the 'Professionalism, Reporting, Interpreting, Managing, Educating, and Procedural Skills' application utilizing learner self-assessment

摘要

BACKGROUND: The Liaison Committee on Medical Education requires midclerkship formative (low stakes) feedback to students regarding their clinical skills. Student self-assessment is not commonly incorporated into this evaluation. We sought to determine the feasibility of collecting and comparing student self-assessment with that of their preceptors using an iPad application. These student self-ratings and preceptor ratings are jointly created and reviewed as part of a face-to-face midclerkship feedback session.
