A Study on Self Directed Learning Readiness Among Undergraduate Medical Students Focused on the Case of A University College of Medicine

A self directed learning(SDL) has been identified as an important ability for medical graduates. The purpose of this study was 1) to measure the SDLR of medical students, 2) to compare the relationship among the student perceptions of assessment, preference of instructional methods with SDLR. This study was conducted in 2006 at A University College of Medicine. The instrument applied to this study was SDLR. Korean version of Guglielmino's SDLR for Adults. The $SPSSwin^{(R)}$ program was used to analyze the data and statistics such as correlation. F-test, and Chi square test. Firstly. the mean scores of the SDLR of first, second. fourth year were 114.8, 107.9 and 106.2. This results showed a significant relationship among years (p<.001). Secondly the relationship between the student perceptions of assessment and SDLR was insignificant. The SDLR high scores students had a tendency to favorite "Discussion" and "Bedside teaching". This study found out the problems of medical education to enhance self directed learning ability for medical students. Further study is needed so that suitable instructional methods for medical students can be conducted in curriculum.
