  • Title: Identification and validation of factors used to evaluate science course delivery systems.
    Author: Heath Z.
    Journal: J Allied Health; 1989; 18(2):199-206. PubMed ID: 2745229.
    Abstract:
    Deans and faculty from seven academic-health-center-based colleges of allied health participated in a three-round modified Delphi study to identify and validate factors that can be used to evaluate administrative aspects of science course delivery for baccalaureate allied health students in these settings. Factors identified accommodate different organizational structures and apply across programs and science disciplines. Participants identified several science faculty qualifications and roles expected of science faculty, allied health faculty who do not teach sciences, and deans. There was less consensus and fewer expectations on the role of the science faculty when appointment and course sponsorship were external to the college. The findings from this study, which was structured around an interdisciplinary professional education framework, have practical and research relevance for allied health.
