Abstract
Educational evaluation is the process of characterizing and appraising certain aspects of the educational process. Educational research attempts to solve a problem, gathers new data and requires careful observation, rigorous analysis and expertise. Xavier University School of Medicine follows an integrated, organ system-based curriculum during the basic science years of the undergraduate medical (MD) course. Educational evaluations are routinely conducted in the institution and the results are used to further improve teaching-learning. A number of educational research projects have been conducted at the institution over the last two years and the results have been published. The results from these studies are shared with faculty members and the curriculum committee and utilized to further improve teaching-learning. In this article the author mentions some of these research studies and also addresses facilitating and hindering factors for educational research in the institution.
