George E. Miller (1919 – November 7, 1988) was an American physician and a key figure in the development of the field of medical education.
From 1955 to 1959, Dr. Miller served as Coordinator of the Project in Medical Education at the University of Buffalo (CITE McGuire). (Write more about this group's members and influence?)
Miller was instrumental in promoting faculty training and degree programs in the area of medical education in the United States and worldwide, through his consulting relationship with the World Health Organization.
Under George Miller's direction, CED established new standards for the medical school, including a comprehensive assessment system in place of individual departmental judgment, that became an influential model in the field of medical education, including restructuring of the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) licensing examinations.
Dr. Miller's research led to the development of the AAMC Research in Medical Education Conference in 1962, the formation of the Society for Directors of Research in Medical Education (SDRME) in 1964, and the AAMC Group on Educational Affairs in 1971.
He chaired the Clinical Skills Steering Committee until 1996. He was the second recipient of NBME's Hubbard Award for excellence in assessment in medical education in 1985.
One of Miller's seminal papers, The Assessment of Skills/Competence/Performance introduced a framework now referred to as "Miller's Pyramid", that described four levels of clinical assessment, comprising "knows" (assessment of knowledge), "knows how" (assessment of competence), "shows how", (assessment of performance) and "does" (assessment of action). The paper has received over 5300 citations (per Google Scholar on 9/30/2021).
