Resumen:
Introduction The role of the teacher has changed to being a guide that facilitates learning. Using the opinions of medical residents an attempt was made to determine the teacher performance and the educational process in clinical settings. Objective The objective was to assign a grade to the teachers in three areas: interaction in academic and welfare activities, supervision of medical practice and professionalism. Material and method A 29 items questionnaire with Likert response options was developed, validated and applied online to 8,742 registered residents of 78 specialties in the 2014-2015 courses. A response was received from a total of 2,604 residents from 101 medical units (clinics and hospitals), who evaluated 1,173 teachers. The number of registered assessments was 9,591. Descriptive statistics was used to analyse the data and assign grades. Results About 85% of residents were grouped in surgical and clinical areas, with 78% reporting being satisfied or very satisfied with their education. The surgical area was the best evaluated, followed by clinical specialties. Residents of more advanced levels gave high scores. Discussion There was agreement with studies conducted in other hospitals on the high score of the surgical area. Conclusions This multicentre study provided useful data, such as the mean score by areas and specialties. The opinion of students is only one aspect among several to consider when evaluating teacher performance, but contributes to accountability and raising the quality of vocational training. © 2016 Elsevier España, S.L.U.
