Changing concepts of education have led many medical schools to adopt student-centred approaches to teaching, requiring different teaching competencies than more traditional approaches.
The aim of this study was to investigate whether participation in a faculty development (FD) programme had a positive effect on veterinary medical teachers' perceptions of their competence in seven different teaching roles.
All teaching staff of a veterinary medical school (251) were invited to complete a questionnaire asking about their perceived competence in seven teaching roles. A stepwise multiple linear regression analysis examined the effect of the completion of a FD programme on perceived teaching competence.
There was a significant positive effect of the FD programme on teachers' perceived competence in majority of the teaching roles at issue.
FD appeared to have a positive effect on the perceived competence of veterinary medical teachers. Further research should investigate whether FD actually results in improved teaching performance.
教育观念的转变促使许多医学院采用以学生为中心的教学方法，这就需要教师具备与传统教学方法不同的教学能力。
本研究旨在探讨参加教师发展（FD）项目是否对兽医教师在七个不同教学角色中的能力感知产生积极影响。
邀请兽医学院的所有教学人员（251 人）填写一份问卷，询问他们对七个教学角色的能力感知。逐步多元线性回归分析考察了完成 FD 项目对感知教学能力的影响。
FD 项目对大多数所涉及的教学角色的教师感知能力有显著的积极影响。
FD 似乎对兽医教师的感知能力产生了积极影响。进一步的研究应该调查 FD 是否实际上导致教学表现的提高。
