PURPOSE Teaching evaluation tools can be used to provide feedback to medical educators and help them improve their teaching skills. The purpose of this study was to develop a clinical teaching evaluation tool and test its efficacy.
METHODS The draft tool was developed based on clinical education literature and was modified by the stakeholder groups. To examine the quality of the instrument, content and construct validity, as well as reliability and fitness were analyzed. Content validity was tested by the stakeholder groups using a survey, and construct validity was verified by confirmatory factor analysis using LISREL 8.8. Internal consistency of items was assessed thorough Cronbach alpha estimation. Rasch analysis using Winstep 3.65 was performed to estimate the fitness of the tool.
RESULTS The resulting tool consisted of 4 large categories, 25 small categories, and 43 items. According to the test results, the average importance of all 43 items was 4.03 (3.63 to 4.29). Cronbach alpha was 0.9689, and the correlation coefficients between the items were high. With regard to construct validity, 10 items needed minor modifications in the category setting. As the infit (0.76 to 1.23) and outfit (0.75 to 1.40) indices show, 42 items were fit to the item response theory.
CONCLUSION The clinical teaching evaluation tool that has been developed in this study is valid and reliable and fits the item response theory. It can be used as an evaluation method in a variety of clinical teaching settings.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to survey the awareness of faculty (F) and students (S) on 'good teaching' and to analyze an example of good lesson, finally to identify the requirements of 'good teaching' in medical education.
METHODS Quantitative and qualitative methods were applied simultaneously. First, survey using a questionnaire was analyzed by frequency analysis and verified using chi-square-test, Mann-Whitney test. Second, the case of good teaching and qualitative data were analyzed by 'priori codes coding' and 'open coding'.
RESULTS The results of survey are as follows: Both faculty and students regarded lessons that taught important content easy to understand (F: 50%; S: 69.1%); Lessons that allow students make sure important information (F: 48.6%; S: 51.4%); Lessons that prepare and plan considering the student's level and interest (F: m=3.78; S: m=3.76) were good lessons. Faculty wanted lessons that improve student's academic achievement (35.7%), while students choose lessons that deliver curriculum effectively using appropriate teaching method (47.1%). According to the results of case analysis, it turned out that characteristics of good teaching were as follows: Thorough plan and preparation of content, various teaching methods and materials, encouragement of intellectual inquiry and curiosity, active interaction between faculty and students, clear feedback and reasonable evaluation.
CONCLUSION Requirements of good teaching are open to faculty at school of medicine and are to be utilized as guidelines to monitor and improve their instruction.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to understand student recognition of CBT as well as its strengths and weaknesses, and to explore the improvement methodologies for the effective development and implementation of CBT. METHODS: A questionnaire survey was conducted twice (before and after implementation of CBT) with a total of 17 multiple-choice and 2 essay-type questions. The multiple-choice questions were analyzed by frequency analysis and the essay-type questions were coded by content analysis. RESULTS: The results are as follows. First, the overall satisfaction with CBT was shown to be high. Second, students listed the merits of CBT as follows: simple correction of answers (before: 89.4%; after: 80.8%), presentation of realistic materials (before: 72.9%; after: 84.7%), prompt feedback on grades (before: 60.3%; after: 71.1%), shortened exam time and effective time scheduling (before: 86.5%; after: 66.4%), accurate estimation of abilities (before: 70.2%; after: 36.6%), and assistance in academic improvement (before: 70.9%; after: 22.1%). Drawbacks of CBT were: inconvenience of review (before: 70.9%; after: 22.1%), inconvenient screen organizations (before: 0%; after: 48.1%), possibility of cheating (before: 73.9%; after: 31.8%), and equality issue of test (before: 47.3%; after: 17.3%). CONCLUSION: Assessment paradigms are currently shifting from summative evaluation to formative evaluation, from one-off assessment to continuous assessment, and from output assessment to process assessment. Therefore, CBT must be expanded to move from result-oriented summative evaluation to formative evaluation continuously monitoring the student learning process.
