Course content
Across the three face-to-face teaching days, delegates will participate in discussions and activities surrounding educational theory on collaborative learning, reflection and evaluation. Some of the topics you will explore include:
- characteristics of adult learners
- roles of a teacher in the clinical setting
- how to enhance your own practice as a medical educator
- peer observations and the 'critical friend' model
- obtaining effective feedback from colleagues
- approaches for assessing learners' progress
- strategies for reflection.
Course assessment
Delegates will undertake two small-scale educational projects in their own workplace. They will use the face-to-face workshops, as well as their cohort's online forum, to discuss these projects, refine ideas and provide support to their peers. A brief report of these projects is submitted and assessed by the RCP tutors.
