The content of medical education knowledge transfer is compounded
as medical breakthroughs constantly impact treatment, and new
diseases are discovered at an increasingly rapid pace. While much
of the knowledge transfer remains unchanged throughout the
generations, there are unique hallmarks to this generation's
education, ranging from the impact of technology on learning
formats to the use of standardized patients and virtual reality in
the classroom. The Handbook of Research on the Efficacy of Training
Programs and Systems in Medical Education is an essential reference
source that focuses on key considerations in medical curriculum and
content delivery and features new methods of knowledge and skill
transfer. Featuring research on topics such as the generational
workforce, medical accreditation, and professional development,
this book is ideally designed for teachers, physicians, learning
practitioners, IT consultants, higher education faculty,
instructional designers, school administrators, researchers,
academicians, and medical students seeking coverage on major and
high-profile issues in medical education.
Clinical leadership and teamwork improve the quality, safety, and
cost-effectiveness of healthcare delivery. Due to this, a growing
number of healthcare systems are requiring their clinicians to
participate in formal leadership training programs, but instructors
face the challenge of how to successfully develop and measure these
programs. Preparing Physicians to Lead in the 21st Century provides
innovative insights into improving healthcare delivery and the
impact of formal leadership training on the personal and
professional life of medical professionals. It examines the form,
function, and design of clinical leadership programs and their
relationships to value-based decision making and creating a
successful organized learning climate. Highlighting topics such as
program assessment, cohort relationships, and clinical leadership
standards, this book is designed for educators, instructional
designers, medical professionals, researchers, and academicians.
