The
Mid-Clerkship Review: Techniques
for Community Based Preceptors
The
Mid-Clerkship Review provides faculty development in delivering
feedback and evaluation to medical clerks in a family medicine
clerkship. The techniques taught are also appropriate for preclerkship
mentoring or electives. The course is aimed at community-based
family physicians who have, or will have, clerks in their practices.
It is focused on the mid-clerkship evaluation session, which is
the most critical interview a preceptor has with a clerk.
The course provides a series of video vignettes and readings.
Participants review these materials at a web site of the Boston
University Department of Family Medicine. They engage in a series
of discussions of the material guided by faculty of the department.
Participants learn skills in gathering data on student learners,
on reviewing progress with them, and on setting appropriate educational
goals for the clerks, and in handling problems. Specific topics
for each of the six weeks in this course are:
- Week
1: Welcoming the clerk, setting learning goals
