Session: Teaching Professionalism

Facilitated by TLC staff: Pamela Barnett, Associate Vice Provost and Director; Stephanie Fiore, Associate Director; Baris Gunersel, Assistant Director

Health professionals continually strive to meet their responsibilities to patients and society. In these times of discussion about the direction of our healthcare system, health science faculty are challenged to inculcate the values and practices of professionalism in the next generation: responsibility for patient welfare and safeguarding of patient autonomy, commitment to professional competence, appropriate relations and quality of care. Using a case studies approach, faculty from across the HSC will consider how to best teach professionalism in both the explicit curriculum and the "hidden" curriculum that emerges in the clinical setting.

Session: Evaluation & Feedback in Clinical Setting

Facilitated by TLC staff: Pamela Barnett, Associate Vice Provost and Director; Stephanie Fiore, Associate Director; Baris Gunersel, Assistant Director

Research shows that learners who receive effective feedback learn faster, perform significantly better than their peers and show more advanced professional judgment. Since health science professionals begin their "apprenticeship" as students in the clinic, it is essential that they receive feedback that will stimulate their learning in this setting. In this session, participants will draw on their own experiences both as students and as clinical instructors to address best practices in providing feedback.
