Summary:

This Fourth Edition of the highly praised Practical Guide for Medical Teachers provides a bridge between the theoretical aspects of medical education and the delivery of enthusiastic and effective teaching in basic science and clinical medicine. Healthcare professionals are committed teachers and this book is a practical guide to help them maximize their performance. There has been a steady rise of global interest in medical education since Practical Guide for Medical Teachers was first published in 2001, with increasing awareness of the importance of educational skills as well as the need for formal recognition of scholarship. Changes in medical practice and the increasing pressures on doctors make its difficult to keep up-to-date with current approaches to curriculum planning, teaching and-learning, assessment and educational management. The significant revisions and major changes introduced for this new edition offer insights into these important aspects of medical education. A distinctive feature of medical education is the continual emergence of new topics and their interest to teachers in all healthcare disciplines. This is recognized in this new edition in seven new chapters: The hidden curriculum, Team-based learning, Patient safety, Assessment of attitudes and professionalism, Medical education leadership, Medical education research, How to manage a medical college, The book has developed a wide readership and aims to support all concerned with medical education in the places where they practise. A total of 73 authors from 14 countries provide both an international perspective and multiprofessional approach to topics of interest to all health care teachers. Book jacket.
