background: clinical attachments form a vital part of the learning experience for medical student but may vary in educational value. This paper describes a project intended to improve the quality of attachments at a District General Hospital in Devon, UK after negative feedback was received from students. Aims: To improve educational quality by providing information and choice for students. Method: The intervention was to set up a web-based system that allowed student to view before arrival all educational opportunities available, not only in the hospital but in the surrounding district. Student were contacted by email 2 weeks before their attachment and were then able to construct their own timetable from the menu of opportunities available. Results: The system was popular with students, recruited new providers of learning opportunities and also integrated learning across primary and secondary care. Conclusions: The intervention encouraged a sense of ownership of the learning experience as well as maximising the use of available learning resources.
