GUIMARAES, Angélica Cordeiro; FALBO, Gilliatt Hanois; MENEZES, Thálita and FALBO, Ana. Medical Students’ Views on the Learning Environment Using Dreem. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2015, vol.39, n.4, pp.517-526. ISSN 1981-5271. https://doi.org/10.1590/1981-52712015v39n4e01062014.
Introduction
How quality of life and the educational environment are perceived can influence academic performance and its analysis can provide important insights.
Objective
To evaluate student’s perceptions about the learning environment of the Hospital Dom Malan/Imip during medical internship.
Method
Survey study involving 105 students between April and September 2013, based on the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (Dreem) questionnaire.
Results
The following results were considered: individual issues, the five dimensions and overall Dreem. The general perception was considered “more positive than negative” (score 144.4) and analysis of the dimensions revealed the following: perceptions of learning: “a more positive perception”; perception of preceptors: “model course organizers” (49.5%); perception of academic outcomes, “feeling more on the positive side” (70.5%); general perception of the environment: “a more positive attitude” (55.2%); perception of social relations: “not a nice place” (90.5%) and overall perception of the educational environment: “more positive than negative” (69.5%). There was no statistically significant difference when comparing the two groups (P >0.05).
Conclusions
The general perception was positive, and the dimension of social relations highlighted as problematic.
