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.
