Multi-Institutional Survey of Fourth Year Students' Self Assessed Milestone Based Skill Proficiency and Faculty Expectation During an Emergency Medicine Clerk-ship: Implications For Curriculum Development.

The objective of this study is to examine differences between student’s perceived proficiency and faculty expectations relative to Level 1 EM milestones, identifying opportunities for curriculum development. Methods: Using ACGME milestone language, the authors developed a survey that measures student perceived skill proficiency with 22 skills, which was administered to fourth year medical students at 6 institutions. Similar surveys were sent to faculty to determine their expectations of students’ skill proficiency. Differences between student and faculty responses were calculated. Results: There were 608 student and 114 faculty responses. There was a statistically significant difference between mean student and faculty responses for 13 of the 22 skills. For 10 of these skills, students rated their own skill proficiency higher than faculty expectations. For 3 of the skills, faculty rated their expectations higher than students’ perceived proficiency. Conclusions: For pharmacology skills, student ratings were low, indicating an area to focus curriculum development. Items where student ratings are higher than faculty may be a result of overconfidence or a lack of understanding by faculty of students’ abilities. Formal assessment of skills in these areas would help clarify the reason and direct faculty and curriculum development.en-USAttribution 4.0 InternationalMedical studentsFaculty expectationsMilestonesProficiencyMulti-Institutional Survey of Fourth Year Students’ Self Assessed Milestone Based Skill Proficiency and Faculty Expectation During an Emergency Medicine Clerk-ship: Implications For Curriculum DevelopmentArticle
