Location of The University of Edinburgh

It is normal for a clinician at some stage in their career to have responsibility for the teaching of either undergraduate or postgraduate students. The aim of the programme is to promote high quality clinical education by developing an understanding of the best practice in clinical education. The programme will provide participants with sufficient knowledge, skills and competencies to develop clinical education.

Learning Outcomes

After completing the online MSc in Clinical Education, an individual will be able to:

* plan, deliver and evaluate his or her teaching for undergraduate and postgraduate students;
* teach individuals, small groups and large groups, using a range of didactic and facilitative approaches, including electronic learning environments and blended learning;
* assess students - using formative and summative modes (including written, practical and oral and electronic formats);
* plan, deliver and evaluate a curriculum or programme within the context of his/her teaching;
* understand research methodology and conduct a research project.


Contents

An online environment has been chosen for the delivery of the MSc programme. Teaching, learning and assessment takes place in an electronic environment known as the Forth Suite. This has been developed by the College specifically for online postgraduate courses and allows interactive visual, audio, textural and graphical modes of communication, in the same synchronous or asynchronous events. Styles of teaching include:

* interactive, synchronous presentations to all students, using video, audio and text-based materials;
* synchronous audio- and text-based learning resources prepared by tutors; a repository of online text-based materials; discussion boards for shared learning; one-to-one real-time tutorials; small group, student-led, problem-based learning; an online student "drop-in" facility.
