Advancing Our Medical Education Environments
Can we deliver a world-class education where learners face disrespect, mistreatment and feel unsupported? Can we prepare tomorrow’s health care professionals in environments where concepts like anti-oppression, social justice and advocacy are not integrated into our curriculum as well as our operational policies and practices? Can we improve the quality of our teaching and teachers without effective teaching evaluation tools?
In short, the answer is no.
Since I undertook my role as Vice Dean of Medical Education last July, I’ve been seeking ways to improve our learning environment across the continuum of medical training in the Temerty Faculty of Medicine.
