MOD 8 Flashcards
A program that provides professionals-in-training with practical skills instruction under the supervision of a skilled practitioner
Clinical education
aim of clinical education:
to enable the learners to begin to develop their understanding of education in the field of clinical practice
process whereby the teacher andd sstudent screate an establish partnership within a shared environment in such a way that the teacher’s primary, operational frame of reference is maintained
clinical learning
purpose of clinical teaching:
- theories and practice are applied
- opportunity for observation
- apply theoretical concepts
- complex psychomotor skills may be practiced
- problemsolving
- gain organizational and time management sskills
- cultural competence
- learners can become socialized
- most common and oldest model of clinical teaching
- CI provides direct supervision and teaching groups of learners (8-10)
Traditional model
-model of clinical teaching where CIs works with other MT staff with predetermined number of interns
Clinical Teaching associates
model of clinical teaching where it is a partnership plan, collaboration between health training agencies (HTA) and academic institutions (HEI)
Clinical Teaching Partner
model of clinical teaching, community based settings
Faculty-directed independent experiences model
model of clinical teaching where the faculty responsibility is to integrate theory and clinical practices, cultivate, deliberate reflection on practice patterns and evaluate the studentss’ performance
Clinical educator/ paired model
model of clinical teaching used toward the end of the program, often as a clinical capstone experience; learners are exposed to the clinical setting and allow them to observe and put it all together
Preceptorship model
preparing for clinical instruction
- HTA sites must be chosen by HEI
- sections must be identified
- evaluation and Memorandum of agreement - there should be enough role models
- educators meeting with agency staff
- making arrangement for learners on a weekly or daily basis
a multi dimensional entity with a complex social context
clinical learning environment (CLE)
One key principle of effective teaching in clinical setting:
Independence, control, and active engagement of the learner
Misuse of clinical laboratory:
- at some instance, students are sent to clinical setting to gain work experience rather than to achieve educational objectives
- Objectives should be clear and specific and should focus on the application of knowledge and skills rather than on learning
- novices are given too much responsibility for patient care
- expecting too much from fledging learners causes anxiety
when learners are supervised and evaluated more than they are taught
process of involving students in activities that encourage them to develop a deeper understanding of content by working with and reflecting the material being presented
Active learning
