Education and clinical evaluation in the field of clinical competency in the internal and surgical departments were conducted in the intervention group of students with portfolio method and in the control group of students with conventional method from the viewpoint of professors and students.
Statistical Analysis Used: The data were analyzed by SPSS 24 and paired and independent t‑test.
