About this book
Reviews
“This is an introduction and guide to a spectrum of teaching approaches for medical education that go beyond the traditional lecture format. … The intended audience is anyone involved in medical education. … The authors have done an excellent job of introducing newer teaching techniques and approaches as well as providing a guide on how to develop and implement a variety of teaching techniques.” (Howard D. Weinberger, Doody’s Book Reviews, March, 2015)
“An introduction to Medical Teaching … is the best DIY manual I know for the medical teacher. … I recommend that anyone looking for a solid grounding in medical education methodology should read this book, and anyone intending to become a better medical teacher should assimilate its precepts. And, as this accessible and instructive book could well become a career-long guide, I suggest that medical teachers (my colleagues included) get one of their own.” (Sushil Dawka, Internet Journal of Medical Update, Vol. 10 (2), 2015)
