Abstract
INTRODUCTION: For this MPhil research assignment, I have chosen to write an article based on a
small scale research project conducted in the Clinical Skills Centre (CSC) at
Stellenbosch University. Medical students’ perceptions were gathered in order to
evaluate the usefulness and relevance of the Clinical Skills module and the different
components thereof as experienced by the students themselves. This in the end led
to valuable feedback that were given to the course coordinators which in turn may
lead to curricula changes being made to improve the overall teaching and learning
experience for future medical students rotating through the CSC.
