MEDSC-M 914

Advanced learning for those interested in teaching, pursuing careers in academic medicine and/or preparation for teaching in residency. Develop knowledge and skills in the theory and practice of teaching and learning specific to design, implementation and facilitation of case-based learning. Enhance and apply your skills with hands-on experiences observing and teaching in classroom-based sessions. Teaching opportunities include facilitating Patient Centered Education (PaCE), Integrated Radiology, Anatomy, and Histology (iRAH), simulation, medium/small group case-based learning and large group team-based learning.

EMERMED 970

Develop clinical education skills and knowledge by teaching junior (Phase 2) medical students in a clinical setting. Learn effective teaching techniques. Become familiar with using and adept at researching the primary literature in health professions education. Understand effective approaches to providing feedback while spending clinical time advising and mentoring junior (Phase 2) students who are on their Acute Care Block (ACB) rotations in the Emergency Department (ED). Develop novel instructional, curricular, and interpersonal skills as an educator and use this knowledge to improve the clinical learning environment for future junior (Phase 2) students. Effectively assist junior (Phase 2) students with their approaches to undifferentiated patients in the ED, including developing an initial diagnostic and treatment plan, navigating a complex healthcare system, and setting personal learning goals in a clinical environment.

MEDICINE 924

Resident-level experience in clinical teaching. Teach, coach, and provide feedback to Phase 2 medical students in the clinical setting of Acute Care. Assist in case-based learning and present your own didactics. Develop as a future educator and contribute to quality improvement of the Acute Care curriculum.

SURGERY 982

Learn effective methods of teaching procedural skills and of small group case-based learning (CBL) facilitation. Demonstrate effective teaching strategies when instructing more junior medical students in in-person procedural skills (e.g., suturing, knot-tying, ultrasound/doppler, intubation) and facilitating virtual CBL learning. Bolster mastery in surgical and procedural education.

OBS&GYN 935

As Phase 3 students, apply teaching theories to the pursuit of improving the clinical learning environment for Phase 2 students. Unique opportunity for Phase 3 medical students to gain experience with clinical teaching in a capacity similar to how they will function as an intern without the demands and responsibilities of residency, with a focus on establishing good teaching practices. Spend time in the clinical setting advising and mentoring Phase 2 students. No direct participation in patient care. Prepare and deliver short teaching sessions for Phase 2 students from a standard curriculum of learning topics to help Phase 2 students achieve success on Labor Delivery. Develop innovative ways to guide Phase 2 students to effectively utilize clinical resources, navigate the basics of patient assessment, and engage with the patient care team.
