Harvard Principles of Medical Education: Maximizing Your Teaching Skills 2024 — become a better clinical teacher
Harvard Principles of Medical Education: Maximizing Your Teaching Skills 2024 (October edition) is about how you teach, not what you treat: there is no clinical content here. Recorded over 23–25 October 2024, its 17 sessions cover adult learning science, bedside and small-group teaching, lectures that hold attention, feedback, assessment, curriculum design and mentoring. Two talks look squarely at artificial intelligence and what it means for the way trainees learn.
