The Korean Association of Medical Colleges (KAMC) developed graduate outcomes based on “The role of Korean doctor, 2014” to serve as guidelines regarding outcome-based education in Korea. The working group in this study analyzed 65 competencies proposed in “The role of Korean doctor, 2014” according to the developmental principle that certain outcomes should be demonstrated at the point of entry into the graduate medical education. We established 34 competencies as “preliminary graduate outcomes”
(PGOs). The advisory committee consisted of 11 professors, who reviewed the validity of PGOs. Ultimately, a total of 19 “revised graduate outcomes” (RGOs) were selected. We modified the RGOs based on opinions from medical schools and a public hearing. In November 2017, the KAMC announced the “graduate outcomes for basic medical education,” which serves as a guide for basic medical education for the 40 medical schools throughout Korea. Medical schools can expand the graduate outcomes according to their educational goals and modify them according to their own context. We believe that graduate outcomes can be a starting point for connecting basic medical education to graduate medical education.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine students' perception of the educational environment of medical schools in Korea.
Methods A total of 9,096 of 12,035 students (75.6%) responded to our questionnaire. This study was conducted at the end of the 2013 academic year using the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) at 40 medical schools in Korea. DREEM comprises five domains: students' perceptions of learning (SPL); students' perceptions of teachers (SPT); students' academic self-perceptions; students' perceptions of atmosphere; and students’ social self-perception. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, and one-way analysis of variance.
Results The overall mean DREEM score was 113.97 (of 200), and the scores for the 40 medical schools ranged from 100.24 to 134.32. The overall mean and domains scores of the DREEM differed significantly between educational systems, grades, genders, and academic achievement levels. Graduate-level medical students had higher scores for the DREEM and its five domains than undergraduate medical students. The scores were lowest in second-year students (mean, 111.80). Male students' perceptions were significantly higher than those of female students except for SPL and SPT. High academic achievers' perceptions were also greater versus low academic achievers.
Conclusion Students' perceptions of their educational environment are positive in Korea. The learning environment should be evaluated by curriculum planners and administrators of medical schools to improve its quality.

PURPOSE This research investigated the psychometric properties of the patient-physician interaction (PPI) domain in the clinical performance examination (CPX). This research aimed to understand the PPI domain in the CPX through a psychometric and relationship analysis between the domains.
METHODS Data were drawn from 1,302 examinees on a set of 6 common CPX cases and 1,066 on a 'bad news delivery' case.
All cases included 7 PPI items, among which we calculated internal consistency reliability. Correlations were made between PPI and the other domains. Analyses using the structural equation model (SEM) were conducted to assess the relationships between latent factors and controlled measurement errors. To calculate the disparity between colleges, we performed a multi-level analysis. Also, we conducted t-tests to investigate the consistency of the PPI and information sharing (IS) scores in the 'bad news delivery' case.
RESULTS Correlation between the mean PPI score and the total CPX score was high (0.707). The correlations between PPI and other domains were; 0.904 for the patient's overall satisfaction, 0.41 for history taking, and 0.327 for patient education. In SEM, these correlations between latent variables increased. The proportion of level-2 (between-school component) variance in PPI was 4.1%. For 'bad news delivery', the group that checked 'yes' on the IS items had higher PPI scores (mostly p<0.01).
CONCLUSION PPI is an influential domain of the CPX and is highly related with the patient's overall satisfaction, clinical courtesy, and history taking. Disparities between schools in PPI are relatively small, such that the PPI could be due to individual factors rather than the school.

PURPOSE This study aims at to make intermediate-term evaluations of a curriculum by investigating its development, operation and outcomes 2 years after its revision.
METHODS A survey using 5-point-Lickert scale questionnaires was given to the group of directors who developed the curriculum, instructors who only used it in their classes, and a student group from the first and second grades. Focus group interviews were performed in the professor groups.
RESULTS Curricular reform was evaluated as being systematic, democratic, and positive in general. Both groups answered questions positively about the relevance of the integrated curriculum and introduction of clinical medicine (ICM), graded as 3.4 (professor) and 3.5 (student). As for problem-based learning (PBL) and the patient-doctor-society (PDS), the professor group responded more positively than students. The 'web-based learning center' was recognized positively by many more students (4.01) than professors (2.75). With regard to the education outcome, professors gave 3.3 points and students 3.5 to an item that asked 'whether students attained the learning goal or not?' Professors, through interviews, showed their satisfaction with the attempt to reform the curriculum, but they pointed out that long-term evaluations should be performed.
CONCLUSION The interim evaluation of the revised curriculum, from its planning to its effects, affirmed by several suggestions to be successful in the long run through 1) enhancement of systematic participation and communication, 2) further integration, 3) steady evaluation, 4) greater effort on professional development, and 5) active interaction between professors and students.

PURPOSE We did this study to find out the current teaching status of the medical humanities and social sciences curriculum in Korean medical schools. Further, we discuss the tasks at hand to improve the curriculum in medical education. METHODS: The curricula of 41 medical schools and the syllabi of 10 schools were examined. We analyzed the tables of course organization and contents of integrated medical humanities. After analysis of the contents, they were grouped into 6 categories of medical humanities and social sciences domain. RESULTS: Our results are as follow: 1) there are 3 types of medical humanities and social sciences subject forms: inter-disciplinary (integrated, for example, PDS), multi-disciplinary (separated subject form), and mixed (integrated+separated); 2) most schools offer medical humanities and social sciences in a required class; 3) medical humanities and social sciences are taught through all school years and all 8 graduate medical schools offer a medical humanities and social sciences course from year 1; and 4) the average academic credits for medical humanities are 10 or 11. With respect to the curriculum content, there is some commonality in 10 schools: disease prevention, health improvement, medical ethics, medical regulation, professionalism, and community medicine. Differences were seen in content selection and organization. CONCLUSION: After brief reviews of the medical humanities and social science curriculums, we discovered that all Korean medical schools meet the need of medical humanities and social sciences education. However, curriculum implementation differed in various ways. We suggest the following tasks: 1) clarification of educational goals in order to develop a core curriculum of medical humanities and social sciences in Korea; 2) sharing experiences of developing a well-designed curriculum with other medical schools for effective teaching of this subject area.

PURPOSE With the changes to the medical environment and to the educational system, we aim to evaluate the current mission statement of the College of Medicine, Ewha Womans University, and revise it.
METHODS To establish the new mission statement, a special committee, the School Mission Revision Committee(SMRC) and an advisory group were organized in 2003. The SMRC functioned through 4 stages of action composed of: investigation, draft development, surveillance of various opinions, and announcement.
RESULTS The revised, final mission statement was: "To contribute to Korea and to the international society by producing excellent woman-leaders in healthcare, who have professional medical knowledge and are humanitarians based on Christian principles." Three key words helped in the realization of this mission: compassion, professionalism, and service. Compassion: a noble physician who practices compassion toward mankind, caring for patients with compassion and the right attitude, and contributing to health promotion. Professionalism: a responsible physician who embodies professionalism, learning the necessary knowledge and skills, having the ability for self-development, and leading in various fields of medicine.
Service: a respected physician who serves society, devoting to the community with excellent woman leadership skills and an open mind, and serving Korea and the international society.
CONCLUSION We expect that this new school mission will be helpful in clarifying the whole educational process and will resolve conflicts resulting from the change to the school system within a rapidly changing educational environment.
PURPOSE To compare the evaluation results of faculties to those of Standardized Patients (SP) participating in a Clinical Performance Examination (CPX) administered at Ewha Womans University College of Medicine. METHODS: The CPX was taken by 77 fourth year medical students. Cases and checklist were developed by the medical school consortium in capital area. Six cases were used and 24 SPs participated and evaluated the students' performances. The whole session was recorded on videotapes so that 6 medical school faculties could analyze and evaluate the students' performances as well. The results were compared and analyzed by SPSS package. RESULTS: The agreement between the faculties and the SPs was relatively good (r=0.79), but not good enough. In every case, SPs gave higher marks than did the faculties. Clear disease entity cases like "hepatitis" and "anemia" showed better agreement than obscure clinical contexts such as "bad news delivery". Better agreement was seen in the items of physical exam category (r=0.91), but the agreement was very poor in the items of doctor-patient (Dr-Pt) relationship category (r=0.54). The construction of checklist and the character of each evaluation item should influence the differences. CONCLUSION: More detailed guidelines and clear/specific evaluating items are necessary to improve the agreement rate. In certain categories like physical exam and brief history taking, the SP' s evaluation can replace the faculties', but for complex contexts like Dr-Pt relationship.

PURPOSE To report the experience of OSCE performed as a summative assessment of the medical students in year 4 at Ewha Womans University. METHODS: Ninety-eight students took the twenty stations including 3 pairs of linked stations. We conducted duplicated OSCEs and each station runs 4 minutes 30 seconds. We analyzed the validity of stations, the reliability of duplicated OSCEs and the difference of scores according to the OSCE tools and categories. RESULTS: Mean OSCE score was 64.45+/-5.49 and Cronbach-alpha of total stations was 0.74. The scores between duplicated examinee groups and between duplicated evaluator groups were not different: the score of preceding examinee group was 63.3 and the later 65.7 (p=0.13), and the score of the first evaluator group was 64.6 and the second was 63.6 (p=0.16).
However according to the individual analysis, 9 stations showed statistically discrepancies (p< 0.05) between duplicated evaluator groups. Regarding OSCE tools and categories, physical examination and skill categories did not show statistically significant differences between duplicated evaluator groups. OSCE scores showed moderate correlation with the cummulative performance grade in general (r=0.53, p< 0.01). CONCLUSIONs: OSCE could be regarded as a reasonable evaluating tool for the summative assessment after two years of clinical clerkship of the fourth year medical students. Analysis of the OSCE stations which was done individually and according to OSCE tools/categories helps to improve the OSCE more complete and the duplicated stations more coincident.
