Each student self-evaluates his/her presentation and receives evaluations from his/her peers. We expect peer and self-evaluation to be meaningful tools for developing skills in oral presentation.Conclusion: We hope to not only improve the quality of oral case presentations by students but also to reduce the time burden on faculty.
