In medical education, Teaching is a "formal and organized process of transmitting knowledge to a person or group"[1]

Methods of faculty physicians

Methods of teaching faculty include role modeling and teaching tactics.

Some aspects overlap as well as some aspects may conflict.

  • Knowledgeable as an attribute for role modeling is also an important tactic for teaching.
  • Most attributes for role modeling may require time to occur which may conflict with efficiency of teaching as a tactic.

Teaching tactics

Teaching tactics used by individual faculty during clinical care have been validated:[2]

  • Learning climate
  • Control of session. Efficiency, attention to time, complete, agenda setting, avoided digressions
  • Communication of goals
  • Promoting and understanding retention
  • Evaluation
  • Feedback
  • Promoting self-directed learning
  • Teacher's knowledge. Includes directing learners to use literature; discussed viewpoints other than is/her own.

Role modeling

Role-modeling behavior of quality physicians includes several attributes that have been recommended or studied[3][4][5]:

  • Curiosity[5][6]:
  • Caring, humanism[3], and kindness[5]
  • Competence in clinical skills[3], including knowledgeable[5]
  • Critical thinking[5]
  • Promotes self-directed learning[5]

Learners' perspectives on important attributes may differ from attributes that faculty value[7].
