Description:
In psychiatry, as in all of medicine, clinicians are frequently
involved in training students and residents yet few have themselves
been trained in pedagogy. Improving the quality of psychiatric
education should both improve the quality of psychiatric care and
make the profession more attractive to medical students. Written by
a team of international experts with many years of experience, this
comprehensive text takes a globally relevant perspective on
providing practical instruction and advice on all aspects of
teaching psychiatry. It covers learning from undergraduate and
postgraduate level to primary medical and community settings,
enabling readers to find solutions to the problems they are facing
and become aware of potential issues which they can anticipate and
be prepared to address. The book discusses curriculum development
using examples from around the world, in order to provide trainees
with the basic attitudes, knowledge and skills they require to
practise psychiatry.
Features:
Instruction on developing a curriculum for Residency training,
teaching interviewing skills, teaching psychotherapy and using new
technology
Innovative ways of engaging medical students in psychiatry and
developing their interest in the specialty, including experience
with new types of elective and research options and development of
roles for students in patient care
Focuses throughout on how to teach rather than what to
teach
Includes descriptions of workplace-based assessments
Discussions of both theoretical and practical perspectives and
examples of particular innovations in the field using case
