Validação de Instrumento de Avaliação de Disciplinas de Escola Médica no Brasil

“…No entanto, quando comparamos esses valores com os da literatura, o percentual de satisfação dos alunos nos diferentes cursos é semelhante ao encontrado no estudo.

Incorporating Sexual and Reproductive Health Care in the Medical Curriculum in Developing Countries

“…Available evidence shows that graduates educated through a problembased learning curriculum felt a high degree of satisfaction with their undergraduate training and the acquisition of clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic skills. 16 At the Commat workshop in Uganda, the Chair of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology from Makerere University described the skills that a doctor working in a remote area might need in order to be able to save a woman's life in an obstetric emergency. No trained obstetrician or gynaecologist would have been available for a considerable time, and the fate of both woman and child would be entirely dependent on the doctor at the nearest health centre, who would have had to be able to cope with a very wide range of emergencies.…”
