Essentials of instruction methods for board certified physicians

Many physicians and other healthcare professionals have jobs at medical colleges and universities, and their job description include instruction and lecturing. In addition, many board certified physicians are working in university and teaching hospitals, and have the responsibility of teaching physicians in their residency training. Therefore, not only medical instructors working at medical schools and colleges need to learn about and practice instruction methods. Developing a doctor to be instructor in a university demands enrollment in a development course called instruction methods. Enabling board certified physicians to satisfactorily perform their role in teaching and training postgraduate physicians in their residency programs also require providing them with the general principles of instruction. The aim of this book is to describe a two-week advanced course which provides the participants the principles of instruction methods. This book is expected to be of interest to medical instructors, professors and physicians working in university and teaching hospitals.
