Excellent instruction requires educators to motivate, support, and engage all learners in achieving mastery of rigorous academic content – even in medical education settings. Join the TLAC team and our medical educator co-facilitators, Dr. Rene Claxton, Director of Palliative Care Undergraduate and Graduate Medical Education at UPMC, and Dr. Bob Arnold, Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedmans Chair in Palliative Care and Vice Chair for Professional Development at Mount Sinai’s Brookdale Department of Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, as we study high-impact techniques that support engagement in various medical learning settings.
WE WILL:
- Study and discuss videos of medical educators using techniques like Everybody Writes and Cold Call, and other Mean of Participation to increase the amount and depth of thinking all learners are doing
- Discuss relevant cognitive science that supports engagement strategies
- Practice various techniques in the context of medical education

PREVIOUS ATTENDEES’ THOUGHTS:
“Yes, I would definitely recommend this series to a colleague. All my colleagues who teach at any level (med student to faculty) and in any forum (classroom and bedside) will learn new skills that will improve the learning of their students and increase their enjoyment of teaching.”
“[This workshop includes] wonderful teaching concepts that are chunked in a way that can be understood and applied almost immediately. Often there are components that we may already be doing, but understanding WHY to do those things or other strategies that could further deepen that experience is helpful.”
“Thank you for being our dream team of trainers for this workshop! So much charisma, energy and skillful connection.”
