Essential Skills for a Medical Teacher is a perfect introduction
for new teachers to the exciting opportunities facing them, whether
they are working in undergraduate, postgraduate or continuing
education. It will also be of considerable use to more experienced
teachers to review and assess their own practice and gain a new
perspective on how best to facilitate their students' or trainees'
learning. The contents are based on the authors' extensive
experience of what works in medical education, whether in teaching
and curriculum planning or in the organisation of faculty
development courses in medical education at basic and advanced
levels. Provides hints drawn from practical experience that help
you create powerful learning opportunities for your students, with
readable guidelines and new techniques that can be adopted for use
in any teaching program. Includes new coverage of "just-in-time"
learning, entrustable professional activities, steps on introducing
outcome/competency-based education, selecting a teaching method,
programmatic assessment, self-assessment, the student and patient
as partners in the education process, the changing role of the
teacher, bringing about change, and the future of medical
education. Covers recent developments in our understanding of the
relationship between learning and technology, as well as curriculum
planning and curriculum mapping. Offers practical advice from
leading international expert Professor Ronald Harden and co-author
Jennifer Laidlaw, who has designed and taught many courses for
medical teachers. Prompts you to reflect on your own performance as
an educator, as well as analyze with colleagues the different ways
that your work can be approached and how your students' or
trainees' learning can be made more effective. Expert ConsultT
eBook version included with purchase. This enhanced eBook
experience allows you to search all of the text, figures, and
references from the book on a variety of devices. Significant
developments will be highlighted throughout this revised edition
including the case for 'just-in-time' learning, the concept of
learning and technology not learning technology, the implementation
in practice of competency based education, a fundamental rethink of
assessment with programmatic assessment and the development of the
role of the student and the patient as partners in the education
process. The text will be updated with recent references with
regard to the importance of the teacher and educational concepts
such as feedback and individualisation. Reference will be made to
the role of the teacher as a scholar and professional as noted in
the new book 'The eight roles of the Medical Teacher' where the
themes are described in more detail. Outcome/competency based
education has been an important development in medical education
and this will be reflected in the new edition. The section on
addressing teaching and learning methods will be revised
recognising developments in our understanding of the relation
between learning and technology, the importance of the teacher's
tool kit and the increasing options within it. The difference
between individualised learning, personalised learning, personal
learning and differentiated learning will be clarified. The section
on the curriculum will be maintained and will reflect developments
in curriculum planning including curriculum mapping. The final
section on assessment will present the developments in the area
including the closer integration of assessment into the education
programme and the challenges of relating assessment to the
competencies and outcomes as described in Section 2. The role of
self-assessment will be emphasised.
