LME evening 10th December: Learning to Teach!
London School of Paediatrics regional training.
What makes a great doctor stand out? The consultant who demystifies a seemingly impossible subject? The registrar who challenges you to observe your patients & reason in a different way?
The ability to educate others effectively is a crucial skill, beyond knowledge acquisition and good clinical practice. It defines a well-rounded clinician, able to lead by inspiring, motivating and shaping the development of peers and junior colleagues.
Join us to learn the basics of educational theory, techniques for active learning and effective presentation. This exciting and interactive seminar will provide you with the confidence and adaptable skills to deliver teaching in a range of settings, from bitesize topics on the ward round, to student lectures to patient education in clinics.
