Self-Evaluation through reflective writing
The University of Health Sciences (UHS) has initiated a step towards module-based
Medical learning with the vision of making the future doctors well-oriented and multi-talented in
all aspects having professionalism, ethics and all other qualities that are the need of the hour. I am
the Pioneer of this modular system and I am presenting a little self-evaluation regarding this
system:
To be honest, initially I found this system very burdensome and challenging to adjust in. I
had no know-how that how to study or how to cover all the vast topics that were included in the
curriculum. The seniors shared some of their experiences of medical study but they couldn’t guide
me effectively regarding this system as they were a part of conventional system. I consulted many
professors, they did their best to make me understand what the modular system really is. But still,
I used to cram each and every word written in the books that was really un-effective and
time-consuming but still unknown about the main points that those long paragraphs actually aimed
to provide. I was still in the dilemma of how to begin studying effectively that the college
scheduled the module exam. I got myself in a fix and I became very depressed that how I would
cover and memorize all the topics, I began to change my strategy and started gripping the main
When I appeared in the exam and had a look on the questions, it began to flash in my mind
the actual steps that I should follow while studying. I realized that I should also do MCQs practice.
I realized that my way of studying was extremely wrong and unfruitful. I focused too much on
cramming the words instead of co-relating the things which was the real purpose of modular
system. Then somehow I performed the module exam, but afterwards I initiated clinical based
learning and co-relating and integrating the topics that were same in different subjects that
benefited me a lot.
Onwards, instead of limiting myself to a single book, I made a step to study multiple books
on a topic and before giving a read, I took lecture on that particular topic and then studying from
The book left me with a comprehensive understanding of that topic. I also started making my own
notes, at-first it was very time consuming but later I figured out that these notes help me to have a
quick go through of all the topics in relatively a limited timeline. And afterwards my performance
in block 1 and block 2 was very amazing and I was very confident and eventually secured rank
In short, it was really a very tough time to sort out how to study but I learnt the technique
that is needed and day-by-day my performance, my knowledge and my methodology is getting far
Some teams have a limited life: for example, a design team developing a new
product, or a continuous process improvement team organized to solve a
particular problem. Others are ongoing, such as a department team that meets
regularly to review goals, activities, and performance.
3) Self-Managed Teams
Self-managed teams directly manage the day-to-day operation of their
particular process or department. They are authorized to make decisions on a
wide range of issues, such as safety, quality, maintenance, scheduling, and
personnel. Their responsibilities also include processes traditionally held by
managers, such as goal-setting, allocation of assignments, and conflict
resolution.
