Educational environment and its application in Medical Colleges

Educational environment is a learning environment, in which learner's performance is optimum. Since medical studies are stressful, educational environment needs to be positive and conductive for learning. Factors like role of teacher, academic content, assessment, learner's characteristics, administrative issues and so on affect the educational environment. Various tools are available, for example, Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure questionnaire to measure the educational environment in health institutes. A conductive learning environment in the form of comfortable learning rooms, effective clinical environment and competent and motivated teachers, has potential to improve performance of learners.
