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 />
