Clinical Teaching Mini Modules
In the clinical years learners acquire knowledge and skill through direct experience under your supervision. The following mini-modules illustrate integration of our core values with best teaching practices. They also offer valuable insights and practical tips for teaching.
The four modules cover the interrelated concepts of co-creating goals, doing direct observation and giving feedback, engaging in collaborative questioning to probe clinical reasoning, and reflecting on the experience to offer guidance for self-directed learning. Each module contains scenarios that address teaching both medical students and residents.
