The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Center for Research in Medical Education Program (CRMEP) was established in 1995 to define, coordinate and address a research agenda reflecting the urgency and complexity of current issues in medical education.
Structured to support administrative research at UNC School of Medicine, this virtual database has many benefits for the school.
In-service training at OED provides staff with up-to-date information about conducting research. Output from the sessions is useful for others looking for research resources.
Presented to OED by Dr. Robert Lowman, this presentation focuses on the role of students as research "subjects" and how they must be protected.
These pearls start with overall project and file management and go through data acquisition and preparation for analysis.
OED provides course and curriculum evaluation for the Schools of Medicine and Pharmacy, and conducts program evaluation and educational research projects for grant funded initiatives in the School of Medicine, and on a consultation basis with the Schools of Pharmacy, Nursing, and others .
Some resources are offered to those looking to learn about or conduct educational research.
Many of OED's educational research
efforts grow out of our on-going work in curriculum development and evaluation,
student assessment, faculty development, and development and administration
of programs to support diversity in the health professions.
