Abstract
Introduction: One of the main aspects of medical students is clinical education. The cognitive apprenticeship model is one of the principles of clinical education and contains six dimensions, including modeling, coaching, scaffolding, articulation, reflection, and exploration. This research aimed to evaluate the clinical education at Kerman University of Medical Sciences based on the cognitive apprenticeship model in 2021. Method: In this descriptive-analytical cross-sectional research, the Maastricht Clinical Education Questionnaire was separated among 150 students, and with a response rate of 74%, 112 of them completed this. Results: In the evaluation of the clinical education at Kerman University of Medical Sciences, the score of the articulation domain was higher than others, and the lowest score was given to the reflection domain. Clinical education in the internal medicine department was the most consistent with the cognitive apprenticeship model. Conclusion: Identifying the strengths and weaknesses of clinical education is the first step toward improving the quality of medical education. In the subsequent steps, the practitioners and planners of the faculty member empowerment programs should design, implement, and evaluate educational empowerment programs for clinical faculty members to improve their academic skills in the clinical education environment.
