Abstract

This paper reviews the application of the Kirkpatrick hierarchical model in evaluating medical education curricula, emphasizing its role in enhancing curriculum quality through stakeholder feedback. It outlines the four levels of evaluation defined by the Kirkpatrick model: Reaction, Learning, Behaviour, and Results, each involving diverse stakeholders in assessing educational outcomes. The paper highlights the importance of multi-source feedback (MSF) methodologies, which provide holistic insights into medical students' competencies, facilitating targeted improvements. Despite the challenges associated with implementing comprehensive evaluations, such as stakeholder resistance and varying interests, the framework promotes ongoing quality enhancement in medical education, ensuring alignment between educational strategies and workforce needs. The study reinforces that effective evaluation systems are crucial for cultivating skilled, competent healthcare professionals and suggests further integration of various theoretical models to bolster educational practices and policy decisions.
