Workshop Description
While a curriculum may be set out, this becomes shaped by teachers into something personal that reflects their own belief systems, their thoughts and feelings about both the content of their instruction and their learners.
The aim of the workshop is to enable medical educators to shift focus from learner characteristics to develop a deeper understanding of one of the key elements in effective teaching: teachers' roles and beliefs. In this way, participants will be better able to understand and plan effective remediation in their own medical schools.
Educational Methods
Based on a Gagne framework the content will be a blended style using information provision combined with practical exercises and opportunities for reflection.
