Download or read book Teaching Professional Attitudes and Basic Clinical Skills to Medical Students written by Jochanan Benbassat and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-04 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concise, easy to read title is designed for clinical teachers looking to refine their approach to teaching professional attitudes and basic skills to medical students. Doctors differ in values, training and practice setting, and eventually they adopt diverse approaches to patient interviewing, data collection and problem-solving. As a result, medical students may encounter significant differences in the clinical methods of their tutors. For example, some doctors encourage patients’ narratives by using open-ended questions while others favor closed-questions; and hospital- and community-based doctors may disagree on the value of the physical examination. Medical students may be puzzled by these differences and by controversies about issues, such as doctor-patient relations and the approaches to clinical reasoning. This handy title is intended to help tutors address many of these issues, and to provide an approach not only to teaching patient interviewing and the physical examination but to teaching some clinically relevant topics of the behavioral and social sciences that are so vital to developing an effective, well-rounded physician.

Download or read book Basics in Medical Education written by Zubair Amin and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2009-02-11 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical education — the art and science behind medical teaching and learning — has progressed remarkably. Teaching and learning have become more scientific and rigorous, curricula are based on sound pedagogical principles, and problem-based and other forms of active and self-directed learning have become the mainstream. We have progressed from the role of problem-identifier to that of solution-provider. This book provides a balanced overview of the “why” of medical education, emphasizing the need for change and adaptation, and the “how”, by demonstrating the way concepts and theories of medical education can be of immediate benefit to the medical teacher. In this improved second edition, student assessment, curriculum, outcome-based education, clinical teaching, and problem-based learning receive more emphasis with the addition of new chapters, essential updates, and consolidation. The tone is more pragmatic, with implementable examples and incorporation of newer evidence and better practices. However, one thing has not changed: the book still targets medical teachers without a formal background in education.

Download or read book Clinical Training in Undergraduate Medical Education written by Sabri Kemahli and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2020 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is intended to serve the needs of clinical educators in medical schools, especially in clinical clerkships. The bulk of the literature written about undergraduate medical education is on the pre-clerkship phase. Clinical clerkship phase is as important as the previous phase and it is intended to be mostly a hands-on experience and training for the students. Most of this training is by exposure to the clinical activities where the students are required to take part in, contribute to and learn during the continuing clinical activities. It is an exciting but a difficult time for the students. They have to learn the basics and sometimes the details of clinical skills, procedures and in many cases they are expected to perform as a young doctor. They are expected to make good differential diagnosis in the busy clinical environment. Considering all these, clinical education should be organized in a systematic way to allow the students grasp the necessary clinical knowledge, skills and attitudes as they experience the complexities and uncertainties of clinical environment. The book provides information about basic concepts of clerkship organization and assessment with various models. Equally important is the clinical skills training which starts in the early phases of medical schools. Three chapters have been devoted to this topic. The organization of clerkships employing various approaches and methods are discussed extensively. Community-based education, use of university and affiliated hospitals, learner-centred clinical education, use of flipped classrooms and integrating basic sciences in clinical clerkships are discussed in separate chapters. As assessment drives learning, the basic principles and the organization of assessment and evaluation including continuous assessment have been covered in three chapters. Believing that more emphasis should be given to interprofessional education, evidence-based medicine, mentoring and providing feedback in the context of organizing clerkships they have been discussed extensively in separate chapters. We hope it will be of help to clinician teachers as well as medical educators involved in clinical training"--
