Balancing on the Tightrope: A Faculty Development Workshop on Balancing Service and Education in the Clinical Environment

Course Overview

This 60-minute faculty development workshop is geared toward clinician educators and faculty developers involved in teaching health professions' students. Using a principled approach based on workplace learning theory, we will provide participants with tools to redesign their teaching practices in clinical environments in a way that will help to balance their service and teaching roles. We will brainstorm best practices for engaging interprofessional partners on the teaching team, integrating practice-based and external skills training and assessment into clinical learning. The overall format of the workshop will use the experiential learning format. It will be interactive using small and large group activities followed by short didactic sessions focusing on core educational concepts.
