摘要:

There is tremendous scope for greater use of games in medical education. In this introductory article, the authors explain what sets games apart from other learning activities, discuss the place of games in the curriculum, and list sources of information for interested teachers. This paper will be followed, in the next issue, by a detailed description of three examples of learning through games in biochemistry, physiology and pharmacology.

摘要:

The author describes two educational strategies for helping students to understand the complex three-dimensional structure of the peritoneal cavity and the developmental changes by which that structure arises. The first strategy consists of a series of conducted circular tours round the peritoneal lining of the postnatal abdomen. The second is a demonstration of the developmental history of the placing of the gut and its peritoneum using a model.

摘要:

Increasing awareness that the technical competence of health professionals must be complemented by a well developed set of interpersonal skills (IPS) has resulted in the rapid growth of the formal teaching of IPS in training programmes for an important group of new health professionals in the United States—physician assistants (PAs). This is a report of a national survey which was part of a study designed to determine the extent and characteristics of IPS teaching. Most PA programmes have a specific course or a section of a large course for the teaching of IPS. Psychologists, physician assistants, and psychiatrists serve as teachers for most of these programmes. The majority of programmes teach process skills (for example, listening, responding), information-gathering skills, and psychological intervention skills (for example, demonstrating empathy). Less than half the programmes report the provision of instruction in one-to-one patient education, team membership skills, sexual and family counselling and self-care for health professionals. Most of the programmes which responded to the survey use videotechnology in teaching or assessing IPS.

摘要:

As acronyms go, BLAT has little to commend it. It has been likened to the sort of expletive beloved by children's comics and can be roughly translated into Polish. The latter, with its allusion to a lady of the streets, is not totally inaccurate, as BLAT is at the service of the medical and health professions. BLAT actually stands for The British Life Assurance Trust, and it represents the coming together in 1966 of the British Medical Association and the British Life Offices, for the purpose of establishing a charitable trust to promote innovation in health and medical education. BMA requires no explanation; BLO is the professional organization of the companies who make up the life assurance industry in the UK. Health is the obvious common ground between the two parent bodies, with the facetious claiming that both have a common financial interest in keeping people alive: the one to maintain the patient list, the other to maintain the premium paying list.1
