Teaching Clinical Reasoning: Making It Visible, Making it Happen
Explore how clinicians engage in the clinical reasoning process, and also learn strategies that boost your skills in teaching and assessing clinical reasoning.
In this section
This module is engaging and includes multiple brief video vignettes followed by pulse-check questions. Foundational principles of clinical reasoning are covered and application to teaching strategies is emphasized.
Learner Outcomes
- Describe theories, concepts, and models that are prominent in the literature related to clinical reasoning
- Identify and evaluate the ways in which novice learners perform the steps in the clinical reasoning process
- Utilize new teaching strategies to promote the learner's development of clinical reasoning skills
