How It Works C ollecting survey data from all four Medical School classes is no small task. A significant amount of student, faculty and staff time is devoted to this effort, and a lot of useful data have been obtained. Here's how the evaluation system works. Near the end of the academic year, each student in the class is asked to complete a more comprehensive survey about the component just completed.
All students also complete an evaluation of their primary care experience.
A cohort of students is asked to complete evaluations of the weekly seminar series, and near the end of the academic year, each student in the class is asked to complete a more comprehensive survey about the entire Component III experience. Near the end of the academic year, all M4 students are also asked to complete a survey about their impressions of the four-year educational program. Every individual who teaches in a Component I or Component II course is evaluated by at least two faculty peers. Peer evaluation focuses more on content, and student evaluation of faculty focuses more on presentation style.
