■受賞対象となった研究の内容
This study explored how a stepwise,
ethnography-informed observational learning framework, drawing on
cultural anthropology, supports learning and meaning-making in the
early phase of undergraduate medical education. The program combined
preparatory lectures, field observation, a staged writing process, in
which rapid notes served as scaffolding for learning through polished
field notes, and reflection through sharing and comparison.
Qualitative analysis focused on students’ polished field notes and
reflective writings, revealing a clear shift from fragmented,
immediate observational records to structured, contextualized
descriptions of clinical settings. Students attended to multiple
layers of practice, including interpersonal interactions, actions,
spatial organization, and medical tools. Through comparison with
peers’ observations, learners recognized the multiplicity of
perspectives and reflected on the quality and communicability of their
own descriptions. Questionnaire data further indicated increased
interest in cultural anthropology and enhanced patient-centered
perspectives following the program. These findings demonstrate the
utility of this design model for supporting novices’ contextual
understanding and professional perspective formation in early clinical
exposure. The study offers a transferable model for fostering insight
into the human side of practice in other person-centered work
environments.
