To compile a database recording components of undergraduate education in ophthalmology in Canada.
Mailed questionnaire survey.
The 16 Canadian medical schools.
All ophthalmology undergraduate program directors.
Teaching hours, subjects and clinical skills taught, examination methods.
Almost all schools covered a similar curriculum and used multiple-choice examinations. The number of hours devoted to preclerkship teaching was similar, but only seven schools had a mandatory clerkship rotation. Overall, 69% of the annual graduating medical school class receive clinical exposure to ophthalmology during their clerkship. Almost all schools provided electives that were similar in structure.
There was great similarity in the curricula for medical student teaching in Canada. Efforts should be undertaken to increase the proportion of medical students receiving clinical teaching in ophthalmology. Increased coordination and collaboration in undergraduate teaching can be achieved in specific areas with future data sharing.
编制一个记录加拿大眼科本科教育组成部分的数据库。
邮寄问卷调查。
加拿大16所医学院校。
所有眼科本科项目主任。
教学时长、所教授的科目和临床技能、考试方法。
几乎所有学校的课程设置相似，且都采用选择题考试。预科教学的时长相近，但只有7所学校有强制性的临床实习轮转。总体而言，医学院校每年69%的毕业班学生在临床实习期间有眼科临床接触经历。几乎所有学校都提供结构相似的选修课。
加拿大医学生教学课程有很大的相似性。应努力提高接受眼科临床教学的医学生比例。通过未来的数据共享，在本科教学的特定领域可以实现更高程度的协调与合作。
