This cross-sectional study explored the current teaching effectiveness of clinical teachers in a medical center and the differences in teaching effectiveness between those of different backgrounds. A questionnaire was developed on the basis of a literature review, and it was distributed through convenience sampling. The survey respondents were clinical teachers in the medical center of a teaching hospital in Taiwan. A total of 818 questionnaires were distributed, and the valid retrieval rate was 97%. The survey data were analyzed using statistical methods such as descriptive statistics, the independent-samples t test, analysis of variance, and Scheffé’s method. The findings of the data analyses are summarized as follows: 1. The surveyed clinical teachers had medium to high teaching effectiveness. Harmonic interpersonal relationships had the highest score. 2. The teaching effectiveness scores of senior clinical teachers (i.e., those aged 46 and older) were higher than those of other participants in all aspects. 3. Clinical teachers with higher seniority had higher teaching effectiveness. The teaching effectiveness of those with 11 to 15 years of experience was lower than that of clinical teachers of other seniorities. 4. Clinical teachers with higher ranks had higher teaching effectiveness. 5. Teaching effectiveness was higher among clinical teachers who had received workshop training than among those who had not. On the basis of these results, this study provides some suggestions to the education units of teaching hospitals, clinical teachers, and future researchers. |
