Dartmouth - Tufts: Radiology Educator’s Course

This two day course is designed for academic radiologists who want to maximizing their teaching skills. We will teach fundamentals in learning theory, teaching session development and delivery,

and learner assessment. Course faculty will discuss and demonstrate active learning techniques, presentation skills and multiple choice question writing using a variety of formats including lectures and breakout sessions. The course will also highlight the latest technology tools, including the use of mobile device audience-response and collaborative annotation to promote engaging and interactive teaching sessions. The unique strength of the course lies in the attendees’ participation in numerous “hands on” breakout sessions following each short didactic lecture. These will enable attendees to immediately practice the tools and techniques described by incorporating them into a specific teaching session they are designing, thus reinforcing their learning. This reinforcement will maximize their ability to implement the knowledge gained in the course to their home institution.
