Abstract:

Medical education plays the most significant role in shaping medical students lives and their behavior towards the society they come in contact to serve. Various teaching and learning methodologies have been utilized in medical education. The currently available research positively highlights the role and importance of Best Evidence Medical Education (BEME). The teachers implement their teaching methodology and teaching styles on the basis of best available evidence and teaching methods. Teachers adopt various types of evidence to aid decisions about the choice of teaching, learning, assessment, curriculum designing and additional issues in medical education. A move to evidence-based teaching will encourage more and better research into medical education. Faculty members have to upgrade their abilities to the par excellence so that the imparted teaching gets validated and improved.
