Applications in Teaching and Learning

Catalog description

This is course is intended to give Scholars experience acting as instructors and group discussion facilitators outside of the traditional laboratory setting. The CO M's two main avenues for such activities are lectures and Cased Based Leaming (CBL) group facilitation. Students are required to select, prepare, and deliver a single one-hour academic lecture/classroom session before 1st and/or 2nd year medical students. Scholars select the topics they would like to present and the faculty member who will mentor them on the lecture. Additionally, each Scholar is required to attend at least 2 CBL sessions (1st and/or 2nd year students) selected by the course director in association with the Associate Dean of Academic Affairs and the faculty facilitators of the selected CBL groups.
