Learning needs assessment should not be restrictive
Learning needs assessment is a crucial stage in the educational process
but could turn education into an instrumental and narrow process
rather than a creative and professional one. Grant (p 156) emphasises
that different learning methods suit different doctors and that doctors
already use a wide range of formal and informal ways of identifying
their own learning needs as part of ordinary practice. These should be
the starting point in designing formalised educational systems for
professional improvement.
