1 EDITORIAL: HIGH RESULTS: UP GRADATION OR DEGRADATION OF MEDICAL EDUCATION.

Journal Title: Indian journal of applied basic medical sciences - Year 2019, Vol 21, Issue 31

Abstract

AS quoted by APJ Abdul Kalam, “Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber and future of an individual.” It is high time that medical teachers to reflect upon this issue. Assessment is a big challenge but we can overcome this by achieving uniformity. Other than present methods this is possible by incorporating blue printing & model answers along with marks distribution. Presently, university teachers are selected only with the teaching experience. We do need to assess the examiner’s competency by evaluating his knowledge, skills and attitude. We are going to implement competency based curriculum from next academic year which has fantastic vision & planning. But, the competency of the medical teachers, who are the core executers, needs to be evaluated for their preparedness for implementation. Otherwise, failure of such curriculum should not be shocking to us. Inefficiency of our teachers due to any reason will leave our students incompetent. We, medical teachers need to be more faithful to the community and shape our students in such a way that we are able to bring out competent medical graduates.
