Learning model part 6: Term-specific teaching<br />

Key elements<br />

The content and method of term-specific teaching varies from term to term, but can include<br />

lectures, journal club, morbidity and mortality meetings, procedural skills <strong>training</strong> sessions, trainee<br />

presentations and other educational methods appropriate to the clinical specialty of the term.<br />

Not every site in a network needs to be able to provide the full network lecture series. Often the<br />

term-specific teaching of a <strong>training</strong> site is its special strength (eg, the paediatrics lectures and<br />

workshops provided at Children’s Hospital Westmead). While trainees are on rotation at some<br />

sites, it may be appropriate <strong>for</strong> them to attend network lectures at another site, or attend by<br />

videoconference or internet link.<br />

Curriculum<br />

• z Framework: ACF<br />

• z Term objectives described in the term description. These should themselves reflect the learning<br />

outcomes of the ACF, but may be phrased in terms of specific activities of the clinical unit that<br />

the trainee is working in during the term.<br />

Trainee assessment<br />

• z Participation records<br />

• z Assessment of trainee presentations by supervisors and peers<br />

• z Workplace-based assessments and the mid-term and end-term assessment <strong>for</strong>ms<br />

(see page 8).<br />

Program evaluation<br />

• z Participation records<br />

• z Trainee education evaluation <strong>for</strong>ms<br />
