• Formulate a provisional diagnosis problems, Order appropriate investigations for common
surgical problems
• Formulate management plans in partnership with Using cost-effective best evidence
• Competent graduates require professional values, attitudes and behaviors that embody good
medical practice, that is, life-long learning, altruism, empathy, cultural and religious sensitivi-
ty, honesty, accountability, probity, ethics, communication skills, and working in teams
• Can demonstrate knowledge of basic medical and clinical sciences required for the practice
of surgery.
• Can display the ability to critically evaluate existing knowledge, technology and information,
and to be able to reflect on it, is necessary for solving problems.

media.
LEARNING OUTCOMES

5CURRICULUM IMC
EDUCATION STRATEGIES
The educational strategies in this curriculum are multiple and aligned with domain of learning and according to the desired outcome
Interactive lecturesOne-third of the curriculum will be delivered in a traditional didactic format including PowerPoint presentations and case discussions. Didactic education is considered to be a one-way transmis-sion of material from teacher to learner, we cannot overlook the possibility of meaningful interac-tion between experts and learners during live lectures. This type of interaction, which allows for immediate clarification of concepts and extension of knowledge, may be particularly important for novice learners who have relatively little exposure to the subject matter, such as our study population(4).
Case based DiscussionA lot of emphasis is on case based discussion during ward placement. Problem-based learning (PBL) is complex and heterogeneous. A wide variety of educational methods are referred as PBL. These include Lecture-based case, Case based lecture, Case based discussions, Problem or inquiry based and Closed loop or reiterative. Incorporation of case based discussion in teaching enhances the critical thinking and problem-solving skills. It also helps in developing a broader prospective of clinical case scenarios (5).
Small Group DiscussionSmall group discussion provides a unique environment to achieve high standards in medical edu-cation. Activation of prior knowledge, exchange of ideas, and engagement at a higher cognitive level are assumed to result in deeper learning and better academic achievements by students (6).
Clinical Skills SessionsClinical skills session are important part of curriculum to achieve psychomotor and affective outcomes. Learning manual skills is a fundamental part of health care education, and motor, sensory and cognitive learning processes are essential aspects of professional development. Simulator training has been shown to enhance factors that facilitate motor and cognitive learning. Students learned manual skills, how to perform the procedure, and professional behaviour. They learned by preparing, watching, practising and reflecting. The simulator contributed by providing opportunities for students to prepare for the skills training, to see anatomical structures, to feel resistance, and to become aware of their own performance ability (7).

6CURRICULUM IMC
ASSESSMENT MCQ’s and SEQ’s Multiple choice question and short essay question test will be used at the end of part of curric-ulum to assess the learning of knowledge. These all assessment exercises will be formative. The written tests like Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQs) and Short-Essay Questions (SEQs) test formats are used for the assessment of cognitive domain. The MCQs are more objective and essentially select type of item response format. MCQs have a cueing effect, which promotes guessing and leads to higher scores. In addition, writing MCQs of higher cognitive level of prob-lem solving is challenging. On the contrary, the SEQs are more subjective and have a supply or construct type item response format, which does not have any cueing effect and can effectively assess problem solving skills(8).
OSCE AND SHORT CASEShort case and OSCE will be used to evaluate clinical skills and procedural skills at the ward end of placement. The OSCE is a method of clinical skill assessment, and it has been reported to be appropriate for assessing learning achievement levels in the psychomotor and emotional domains, which are difficult to evaluate with written examinations(9).
CLINICAL LOG BOOKClinical log book is meant for self directed learning (SDL) and assessment of students. The clini-cal logbook includes reflection which helps the students to set educational goals.
MINI-CEXMini-CEX is used to assess the clinical skills and problem solving skills of medical students. This is the tool used by clinical teachers. This can assess all three domains, Pyschomotor, cognitive and affective. This also used as formative assessment.
INTERNAL ASSESSMENT i. The weightage of internal assessment shall be 10% of totals marks. ii. Continuous internal assessment shall consist of evaluation at the end of each assignments,
e.g. stages/sub-stage, class tests etc., attitudinal assessment from educational supervisors. iii. Assessment of knowledge, Skills and Attitude shall contribute toward internal assessment.
Methods used to assess these domains shall include Multiple Choice Questions of one-best type, Short essay questions, Oral/Viva, and Practical/Clinical axaminations.
iv. The score of internal assessment shall contribute to the score in the final examination, Final university examination of each subject shall contribute 90 to total score, and the candidate shall pass in aggregate.
v. Proper record of continuous internal assessment shall be maintained.

PROGRAMME EVALUATIONPurpose of Evaluation The major goals of the evaluation are to provide information that the students can use to achieve curricular objectives and that the faculty can use to monitor quality of and improve curriculum.
Design of Evaluation The evaluation design as only posttest.
Users of evaluation: students, curriculum faculty, Principal OfficeResources: Curriculum faculty and departmental secretaries. No additional funding
Evaluation question: • What percentage of students achieved 75% mandatory attendance?• What percentage of students achieved pass marks in university exam?• What are the strengths of the curriculum? What are the weaknesses? How can the curriculum
can be improved?
Because of limited resources, the evaluation was kept simple. Data Collection was integrated into the curriculum schedule. The major goals of the evaluation are to provide information that the students can use to achieve curricular objectives and that the faculty can use to monitor quality of and improve curriculum. The evaluation design as only posttest.
End of curriculum evaluation form:This will be filled by students and faculty members for evaluation of adequacy with each content was covered, whether they would recommend the curriculum to others and written comments on curriculum strengths, weaknesses and suggestions for improvements.
Annual Report:Based on evaluation of the educational programe report will be generated annually and submitted to Medical Educational Department.
