Really Good Stuff: new ideas in medical education
Medical Education receives a great many more papers than it can publish. Many of these aredescriptions of new ideas in curriculum design, teaching practice, assessment or evaluation,and some describe attempts at curriculum or programme change. We want to publish morepapers in these categories. In view of this, we plan to devote a section of each Novemberissue to structured short reports describing new ideas.
This section has been created to complement the `In Progress' section of the NorthAmerican publication Academic Medicine. An international panel of reviewers, under theeditorial direction of M Brownell Anderson from Association of American Medical CollegesWashington DC, will review all the submissions and select those to be published.
Each structured report should be no longer than 500 words and must be organized intofour sections: the context and setting; why the idea or change was necessary; what was done andevaluation of the results or impact. No tables, ®gures or references are allowed.
Along with originality and importance of the ideas described, we will be looking forevidence of, or plans for, evaluation of the effects of the introduction of the innovation.
The closing date for receipt of manuscripts is 1 May 2002 with publication planned forNovember 2002.
Guidelines for authors are available by fax or email only from the Medical Educationjournal of®ce (+ 44 1752 764 413/[email protected]) and can be viewed at the journalwebsite (www.mededuc.com).
