Enacting a 5 minute teaching scenario |
Teaching is one of the pillars of academic
medicine, yet clinicians rarely receive any training in pedagogy or teaching
techniques. The faculty of the Clinical Teaching Skills Course,
Drs. Baker, Milligan and Shields put together an incredible one-day workshop for
residents and fellows to hone our teaching skills.
Though the COE course, I learned that there is vast
amount of literature on cognitive science and learning that has been studied
empirically but is underutilized in medical education. GME curriculums
typically focus on “what” to teach rather than “how” to teach. This course
challenged me to think about my own teaching style, and the feedback culture
that I want to create as a clinician educator.
