C8 - Tools for Teaching Improvement 

Drs. Kelley Skeff and Georgette Stratos, Stanford Faculty Development Center, Stanford University School of Medicine 
Dr. Mary Lee, Tufts University

This day-long course, developed by the Stanford Faculty Development Center, is designed to: (1) enhance participants' versatility as teachers; (2) enable them to use a 7-component educational framework to analyze teaching; and (3) provide a forum for collegial exchange among teachers, regarding teaching improvement.

In a series of workshops, we will focus on three selected topics from the following list: 

o Learning Climate 
o Control of Session 
o Communication of Goals 
o Promotion of Understanding & Retention 
o Evaluation 
o Feedback 
o Promotion of Self-Directed Learning

The workshops alternate between general and small group sessions, and use a variety of instructional methods including didactic presentations, group discussions, role play exercises, videotape review, and personal goal setting.
