摘要

未来医学教育与发展入门课程(Future MEDIC)是一个由医学生主导的学校项目,旨在通过分享对医学和医疗保健事业的热情来激励服务不足社区的小学生。通过亲身实践活动,包括身体检查工作坊、现场机场飞行医学介绍,以及与病人模拟器的互动演示,26名八年级学生被授权积极探索医疗保健世界。为了评估Future MEDIC对学生对医疗保健职业的知识和兴趣的影响,我们进行了前后调查、非正式的离职访谈和参与奖励。调查结果用Mann Whitney U检验进行显著性分析。与调查前相比,调查后“我喜欢学习身体是如何工作的”的比例显著增加(p = 0.01)。而在调查前和调查后,“我将来有兴趣从事医疗保健或医学工作”的比例也有显著下降(p = 0.03)。尽管学生们很喜欢Future MEDIC项目的活动和内容,但他们对进入医疗保健领域的兴趣并没有增加。虽然进入医疗保健领域的兴趣没有增加,但对学生来说,Future MEDIC是一个有益而有趣的经历,也是一个创造医疗保健领域多维视图的机会。

Future MEDIC: Medical Student–Led Healthcare Career Exploration Program for Underserved Middle School Students
Future Medical Education and Development Introductory Course (Future MEDIC) is a medical student–led school program designed to inspire primary school students in underserved communities by sharing a passion for medicine and healthcare careers. Through hands-on activities—including physical examination workshops, an on-site airport introduction to flight medicine, and interactive demonstrations with a patient simulator—26 eighth-grade students were empowered to actively explore the world of healthcare. To assess the impact of Future MEDIC on students’ knowledge and interest in healthcare careers, we administered pre- and post-surveys, informal exit interviews, and participation prizes. Survey responses were analyzed with a Mann Whitney U test for significance. There was a significant increase (p = 0.01) from pre- to post-survey about “I enjoy learning about how the body works.” Yet there was also a significant decrease (p = 0.03) from pre- to post-survey about “In the future, I am interested in working in healthcare or medicine.” Despite enjoying the activities and content of the Future MEDIC program, students did not have an increased interest in entering the healthcare field. Although interest in entering the healthcare field was not increased, Future MEDIC was a rewarding and fun experience for students to partake in, and an opportunity to create a multidimensional view of the healthcare field.
