  • Participatory Action Research

Background:

  • Medical schools need guidance on meaningfully involving students in curriculum changes.
  • Existing literature on curriculum co-design often lacks student-faculty partnership models.
  • Participatory action research (PAR) offers a framework for collaborative curriculum design.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore and determine the best methods for involving medical students in curriculum design.
  • To identify student perspectives on partnership working in curriculum development.
  • To generate guidelines for future student involvement in medical school curriculum co-design.

Main Methods:

  • Recruited Year 4 medical students for focus groups.
  • Utilized a participatory action research (PAR) approach for collaborative analysis.
  • Employed reflexive thematic analysis on focus group transcripts.

Main Results:

  • Six students participated, offering diverse perspectives on curriculum co-design.
  • Student perspectives were analyzed through the lens of student-faculty, student-curriculum, and peer-to-peer relationships.
  • Findings were discussed using pedagogic theories and Arnstein's ladder of citizen participation.

Conclusions:

  • Student involvement in curriculum design benefits both students and institutions.
  • The PAR project facilitated curriculum review and generated practical guidelines.
  • This study provides a model for future medical student engagement in curriculum co-design.
