Here’s what the first three classes
of Fellows have observed:
The MTFP enhances Fellow’s
knowledge of
current theories, and techniques.
| "The MTFP reinforced my belief that
education is an academic discipline which can (and should) be approached with the same
degree of rigor as our clinical work and our research endeavors." |
- - Pediatrics |
| | |
| "One of the most important benefits of
the MTFP for me was to learn the science and the psychology involved in teaching." |
- - Surgery |
| | |
| "The fellowship has introduced me to
many different concepts and theories of teaching. It made me realize that teaching can be
approached as a science, with deliberate planning of instructional methods depending on
the goals to be achieved." |
- - Medicine |
| | |
| "Even though prior to the course I
considered myself a good teacher, my previous knowledge was both reinforced and greatly
enhanced." |
- - Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
|
|
The MTFP increases
Fellow’s skills and
confidence as educators.
| "The MTFP helped me save time by helping
me become more efficient in completing educational tasks such as preparing exams. " |
- - Pharmacology |
| | |
| "I now eagerly seize the opportunity to
teach either my residents, medical students or other professionals….If one approach
will not work, I now can try other methods with which I was previously unacquainted." |
- - Anesthesiology |
| | |
| "My own teaching effectiveness has been
enhanced…I recently received an award for the quality of my presentations at a major
national meeting, I think largely as a result of the sophistication gained during the
MTFP." |
- - Urology |
| | |
| "My evaluations in the classroom have
improved tremendously. I now also give better feedback and write better exam questions. I
definitely owe it to the MTFP." |
- - Surgery |
| | |
| "MTFP increased my confidence and
enjoyment in teaching - I do a lot more teaching as a result, not just lectures, but
seminars, groups and more. I am earning more recognition in my department as well." |
- - Psychiatry |
|
The MTFP fosters collaborative
involvement
in educational initiatives.
| "I appreciated the exchange with
clinical faculty; it helped me see the end from the beginning." |
- - Biochemistry |
| | |
| "Other colleagues are beginning to seek
me out with teaching problems of their own." |
- - Anesthesiology
|
| | | |
| "…the fellowship is increasing the
visibility of people at BCM who care about teaching and who have experience in educational
programs." |
- - Medicine |
| | |
| "I believe that all course coordinators
should consider enrolling in the MTFP. In addition to helping you fine tune your personal
teaching skills, it gives you the broad perspective to know how to incorporate others into
the operation of your course." |
- - Molecular Physiology and Biophysics
