Sažetak
Background: The SITE method developed at the Zagreb Medical School relies on consensual agreement between students and teachers in the teaching process. Work done: The SITE has been followed-up for five years. Its major advantages are: a) direct interaction and increased mutal understanding of partners involved, b) increased motivation for a structured dialogue based on partnership, c) identification of objective problems and finding joint solutions, d) direct impact of the consensual directives on the prospective teaching process. Its weaknesses are: a) difficulties in accepting direct communication, b) problem of randomly chosen students related to their opinion which is often personalized, c) negative influence of the size of the faculty, d) lack of motive in the faculty for changes, e) lack of students motivation upon completing the course. This method is also characterized by relatively small financial support and is not time consuming in relation to the tasks chosen. Conclusion/Take-home message: The specific feature of the SITE method is the validation of the teaching process and the recognition of the problem. For the teachers it has an emotionally positive impact (giving support to good practice) and the awareness of the need to change. The greatest value is the joint recognition and solution of common problems in this educational partnership.
