의과대학 이러닝 교수·학습 환경의 필요성 분석

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore a framework of e-learning implementation and possibility of e-learning in medical school in order to improve effectiveness and efficiency of medical curriculum. We, first, reviewed the recent literature on e-learning styles and achievement in medical education. Second, we conducted a survey on the clinical practice and web information management system of medical school. The subjects in this survey were 30 faculties and 11 residents in an academic hospital, and 71 senior students in medical school. Then we conducted in-depth interviews with 9 faculties. The result suggests that there were few time and rewards to teach and manage the clinical practices and there were significant differences between groups in the evaluation of the management of clinical practice. All three groups recognized a need of a web information management system, and 75% of the faculties agreed to use a web-based clinical practice assistance system. Also all the 11 faculties with in-depth interviews agreed on a need of the system and using it. Based on the results from the survey and interviews, a framework of e-learning implementation for medical school was suggested and the implications of the e-learning on the medical education were discussed.
