Fundamentals of Learning and Teaching Modalities in Health Professions
Introduction to a range of teaching modalities, including large group lectures, small group teaching, case-based, problem-based, and team-based learning, flipped classrooms, standardized patients, simulation, e-learning, procedural, chalk talks, and clinical and bedside teaching. Ignatian Pedagogy will be threaded throughout the course. Rooted in adult learning theories and human cognition, students will review these fundamental concepts and seamlessly apply them throughout the course. There is a strong focus on practical application, enabling participants to create innovative and engaging learner-centered experiences, establish supportive learning environments, and adeptly integrate feedback. As a culmination of their learning, students will craft a final project, utilizing one of these teaching modalities to instruct peers on a relevant topic, applying the skills in a real-world educational context.
Outcomes: Categorize different teaching modalities (e.g., large group lecture, small group teaching, cased-based, problem based and team-based learning, flipped classroom, standardized patients, simulation, e-learning and clinical and bedside teaching); Define the concepts of adult learning theories (e.g., learning theory, human cognition); Apply knowledge and understanding of androgyny to class work during this course; Demonstrate course skills, including the creation of innovative and engaging learner-centered experiences which will be showcased in the teaching portfolio project; Appraise experience with teaching modalities in education through reflective writing.
