  10. Faculty Role Changes: From Lecturer to Facilitator • teachers' and students' learning--no longer disseminators, trusting students, guiding through questioning, and feedback; • teachers and content--cover everything verses let them choose what they need, realize a rich network of connections among ideas facilitates understanding and remembering; • teacher and student--partner with students in learning, loosen control of content and process of learning, students learn to ask questions and provide extended explanations; • student to student--students actively engaged with one another, characterized by cooperation rather than competition; • teacher to group--attentive to the needs and health of the group...fostering a cooperative spirit; • teacher and self--self-awareness through thought-provoking questions and managing participation, reflective; and • teacher and other teachers--collaboration, vulnerability, modelling of the process of self-directed learning.

  19. “From the violent nature of the multiple stab wounds, I’d say the victim was probably a small group facilitator.” ``

  20. Goals/Purposes of CBL Groups: Overall: The primary purposes of the small group-learning format are for students to: • Develop life-long learning skills and enhance medical knowledge by assessing, explaining, discussing, systematic reasoning and applying medical knowledge in the context of clinical case presentations for integrated learning and better long-term recall. • Develop and demonstrate social, interpersonal, communication and collaboration skills that prepare our students to establish and maintain professional relationships with patients, families, health care team members and a diverse patient population. • Develop the skills of critical thinking, research, evaluation (self & others), teaching, giving and receiving feedback, exploration, and cooperation (team work). Note: The AOA Core Competencies served as a resource for the wording for these purpose statements. Specifics: To… • learn the “language of medicine” (http://www.dmu.edu/medterms/welcome/) • explore the process of medical reasoning • begin to develop skill in problem solving • learn to integrate concepts/principles in basic science, clinical information, ethics, psychosocial, epidemiology, etc • provide a memorable clinical context for acquiring, retaining and recalling knowledge • provide a “safe learning environment” • practice independent learning, self-direction • experience and acquire collaborative learning skills (sharing info, assessing and utilizing strengths of group) • learn the skill of teaching others • understand and value differences • develop as a professional • learn and foster learning team / group interaction skills • learn to help make a group a “learning team”dedicated to maximizing the learning of each individual & group
