Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 7
Abstract
INTRODUCTION : The impact of hidden curriculum on the medical students is huge. As the students tend to internalize and perpetuate the patterns of behavior and values that surround them,it becomes particularly relevant for medical teachers to study the hidden curriculum in their respective institutions. METHODS: A Cross sectional study was conducted in AIMSR for a period of 6 months involving final MBBS students . A well structured questionnaire was used as a tool for data collection from students . Mean scores of opinion of the students regarding the statements in the questionnaire were tabulated and data analysed using SPSS software using Descriptive statistics analysis method. RESULTS : Out of the 44 items in the questionnaire , student's perception was positive for about 36 items suggesting that these item areas are satisfactory in our institute. Perception of students was not satisfactory for 8 items. CONCLUSION :. Students' reflections on the hidden curriculum are a rich resource for gaining a deeper understanding of the hidden curriculum of an institution. Medical teachers can use these results to reform, revise, and humanize clinical medical education . Review is a promising approach for addressing the hidden curriculum .
