Larry Greenblatt, MD, and Nilesh Patel, MD, travelled to Singapore in November to continue their project to improve clinical training for 2nd and 4th year students at Duke-NUS.
"We work closely with GIM (DIM there) faculty and have provided faculty development in efficient, interactive teaching in busy clinical settings and also in teaching in groups composed of multi-level learners," says Greenblatt.
While in Singapore, they were able to:
- make rounds with the DIM faculty and provide feedback
- lead interactive workshops in dealing with difficult learners and in using evidence-based information resources in the clinical environment
- provide mentorship in improving morning report
- provide consultation to a group of resident leaders planning a longitudinal leadership course
Greenblatt adds, "we will soon begin working in other clinical areas and will soon begin collaboration with the Department of Surgery."
