Abstract
Objective
To develop educational resources that will lessen the burden of teaching on residents and improve medical student experiences on surgical clerkships.
Design
This is a descriptive study of a resource developed at our institution to improve resident to medical student teaching.
Setting
This was conducted at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, an academic teaching hospital in Boston, MA.
Participants
General surgery residents and second- and third-year medical students rotating on general surgery during their clerkship experience.
Results
A repository of premade chalk talks decreases the burden on residents of teaching medical students, increases the quality of their teaching, and improves medical student experiences rotating on surgery during clerkships.
Conclusions
Premade chalk talks offer a valuable and novel resource to residents, enabling them to provide higher quality teaching with less preparation.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Surgical Education (JSE) is dedicated to advancing the field of surgical education through original research. The journal publishes research articles in all surgical disciplines on topics relative to the education of surgical students, residents, and fellows, as well as practicing surgeons. Our readers look to JSE for timely, innovative research findings from the international surgical education community. As the official journal of the Association of Program Directors in Surgery (APDS), JSE publishes the proceedings of the annual APDS meeting held during Surgery Education Week.
