Monitoring Learning Progress:
It is essential to monitor the learning progress of each candidate through continuous appraisal and regular assessment. It not only also helps teachers to evaluate students, but also students to evaluate themselves. The monitoring be done by the staff of the department based on participation of students in various teaching/learning activities. It may be structured and assessment be done using checklists that assess various aspects. Checklist is given in chapter IV.

The learning out comes; to be assessed should included (i) Personal attitude (ii) Acquisition of knowledge (iii) Clinical and operative skills (iv) Teaching skills and (v) Dissertations

The methods used mainly consisted of observation. It is appreciated that these terms requires a degree of subjective assessment by the guide, supervisors and peers.

II ) Acquisition of knowledge : The methods used comprise of ‘Log book’ which records participation in various teaching / learning activities by the students. The number of activities attended and the number in which presentation are made to be recorded. The log book should periodically be validated by supervisors. Some of the activities are listed. The list is not complete Institution may include additional activities , if so, desired.

Journal Review Meeting ( Journal Club) : The ability to do literature search, in depth study, presentation skills, and use audio-visual aids are to be assessed. The assessed is made by faculty members and peers attending the meeting using a checklist ( see Model Checklist-I Chapter-IV)

Seminars / Symposia: The topics should be assigned to the students well in advance to facilitate in depth study. The ability to do literature search, in depth study, presentation skills and use of audio-visual aids are to be assessed using a checklist ( see Model Checklist-II, Chapter IV)

Clinico-Pathological Conferences: This should be a multidisciplinary case study of an interesting case to train the candidate to solve diagnostic and therapeutic problems by using an analytical approach. The presenter(s) are to be assessed using a check list similar to that used for seminar.

Medical Audit: Periodic morbidity and mortality meeting be held. Attendance and participation in these must be insisted upon. This may not be included in assessment.

IV) Teaching skills : Candidate should be encouraged to teach undergraduate medical students and paramedical students, if any. This performance should be based on assessment by the faculty members of the department and from feedback from the undergraduate students ( See Model Checklist V, Chapter IV)

V) Dissertation in the Department: Periodic presentation are to be made in the department. Initially the topic selected is to be presented before submission to the University for registration, again before finalization for critical evaluation and another before final submission of the complete works ( see Model Checklist VI & VII Chapter IV)

VIII) Records; Records logbooks and marks obtained in tests will be maintained by the head of the departments and will be made available to the University or MCI

Log book

The logbook is a record of the important activities of the candidates during his training, Internal assessment should be based on the evaluation of the log book. Collectively, log books are a tool for the evaluation off the training Programmes of the institute by external agencies. The record includes academic activities as well as the presentation and procedures carried out by the candidate.

Format for the Log book for the different activities is given in table 1,2 and 3 of chapter IV. Copies may be made and used by the institutions.

Postgraduate student’s diary should include following activities:

Format for PG Diary ( Log book )

1. Cases seen on rounds – description of interesting cases and other miscellaneous topics discussed.

2. Outpatient cases seen and details of interesting cases will follow up.
3. Procedures done on inpatients and outpatients and consultation done.

4. Undergraduate teaching done during the day details.

5. PG training programmes attended – details of bedside clinic, basic sciences, subject and clinical seminars , journal clubs, mortality meet and hospital conference.

6. Night duties – details of patients managed and emergencies , consultation. Ward calls attended.

7. Details of study with topics covered during off hours in library / home. Periodicals and Journals reviewed with notes on interesting articles.

8. Medical meeting Seminars . Local API / CSI meeting or other interesting CME seminars attended.

9. Diary should be reviewed on weekly basis by unit faculty and certified on monthly basis for PG ‘s benefit at the end of each medical/speciallity rotation. Faculty should comment regarding absences and irregularities (Late arrivals and early departure ) and make appropriate comment and suggest remedial measure for problematic prodigies.
10. Size of note books: 15 cm with 200 pages. All note books should have seal of college and H.O.D’s approval: Extra note books may be utilized as and when necessary. Dairy should be presented at the time of University clinical exam for review by examiners as per University regulation.

Procedure for defaulters: Every department should have a committee to review such situations. The defaulting candidate is counseled by the guide and head of the department. In extreme cases of default the department committee may recommend that defaulting candidate be withheld from appearing examination. If she/he fails to fulfill the requirements in spite of being adequate chances to set himself or herself right.

Internal evaluation of P.G. students performance during three years.

1 year of M.D. Students:

Assessment of student with multiple choice questions multiple short notes covering wide range of topics and practical examination with attention to history taking. Clinical skills, relevant diagnostics and therapeutic plan ascertained. Suggested time of evaluation after first six months and at the end of the first year rotation.

II year of M.D. Students;
Students should be evaluated at the end of the II year on the theory and practical examination along with one faculty from General Medicine. For other specialties with short rotation of one month may evaluate the candidate for comprehension of the subject and clinical skills.

III year of M.D. Students:

P.G.’s should be evaluated at the beginning of his 3rd year training by panel of senior postgraduate teachers. Suggested pattern of assessment with two type theory papers and multiple choice questions (200)- clinical skills, diagnostic and therapeutics skills evaluated intermittently by unit faculties.

Mock examination suggested – 3 to 4 months prior to final University exam should consist of two question papers each 3 hours duration, and clinical and viva voce similar to university examination under the supervision of seminar faculty.

Results of evaluation should be entered into P.G.’s diary and department file documentation purposes. Main Purpose of periodic examination and accountability is to ensure clinical expertise of students with practical and communication skills and balance broader concept of diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
