Students will be asked to complete an evaluation form to provide us with their assessment of the effectiveness of this program in stimulating their learning in the area of arthritis and musculoskeletal diseases. The student will be evaluated by the community preceptor using the Internal Medicine Department Standard Student Elective Evaluation Form. This form will be submitted to the Internal Medicine Education Office. The final grade will be issued by the Internal Medicine Department M-4 Curriculum Director based on the preceptor's evaluation. Absences beyond this must be made up in a manner arranged with the attending, i.e., taking extra call, working weekends, writing a paper, or making an extra oral presentation, etc.
All absences are to be approved by the attending in advance except for illness.
The student is to call the attending if ill, car troubles, etc. The department used the excused absence form supplied by the Dean's office. The Department of Internal Medicine incorporates official School of Medicine holidays into the schedule. Your comments .
