    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Clinical Teaching
    • Physician Training

    Background:

    • Effective clinical teaching by ward attending physicians is crucial for medical education.
    • Existing methods for improving teaching performance among physicians may be limited.
    • Attending physicians play a key role in shaping the learning experiences of trainees.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the effectiveness of a novel seminar method designed to enhance the teaching abilities of ward attending physicians.
    • To assess the impact of this seminar method on physicians' teaching performance and attitudes.
    • To determine the influence of the improved teaching on medical trainees' learning outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Forty-six attending physicians from four institutions were randomly assigned to an experimental group (receiving the seminar method) and a control group.

  • Teaching performance was evaluated using videotape ratings of ward rounds.
  • Physicians' self-assessments and trainee ratings were also collected to evaluate teaching impact.
  • Main Results:

    • The seminar method led to significant improvements in attending physicians' teaching performance, as evidenced by videotape ratings (p < 0.05).
    • Both physicians' self-assessments and trainees' evaluations showed significant positive differences favoring the experimental group.
    • The study demonstrated a measurable positive impact on learners' experiences and outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • The seminar method is an effective and feasible approach for improving the clinical teaching skills of attending physicians.
    • This educational intervention can enhance the quality of medical training and positively influence trainee learning.
    • Implementing such seminar-based training offers a practical strategy for advancing medical education standards.
