1. NEW Methods of Teaching
Luton VTS 2015
Dr R Khanchandani
Dr A Sulakshana

2. Structure
Autumn, Winter, Spring Term ST3s will have topic led CSA teaching in HDR and Block from Sept 2015 till April 2016
ST1 and ST2s will be taught separately in HDR and Blocks until April term
Summer Term all GPSTs will be taught together until the following September

3. WHY? Trainee feedback in GMC survey
CSA results have been good despite old model
Development in local expertise allowing for more Trainers to teach at VTS which will also help CSA Training at practices locally
Increasing number of Trainees causing large teaching groups with different training needs

4. How? Break ST3 into small groups of 3-4 Trainees (4 groups in total)
Name the Groups
Topics from curriculum to be distributed amongst groups for case writing for the term
Use the handout to start writing cases on topics
In each HDR or block session 1 group will be the patient group. This group will lead the session. They will provide a mini presentation of guidelines on the topic. They will then break up and act as the patient for remaining groups.
Feedback will be provided by members from the active group (doctor groups)
Each feedback must contain at least 2 action points for the role player to consider at their next consultation in one of the three areas (data gathering, clinical management, interpersonal skills)

5. Session Design 9:30 am: Presentation 9:45 am: Role play 1
10:30 am: Coffee
11:00 am: Presentation
11:15: Role play 2
12:00: Plenary/ Setting tasks for next HDR
12:30: Close

6. Rules…. Start at 9:30 (not 10 or 9:45…)
Each Group must prepare for each session or the session is wasted for other Trainees
Feedback must be specific and constructive but honest to enhance learning
Trainees not attending any session will need to inform their group and handover ensure the work is equally distributed amongst the group
They must also do the same for colleagues when they are off
Absence for leave must be communicated to Lesley by (If no apologies are sent the Trainer will be contacted for that Trainee)
