The focus of the workshop is on the content and delivery of a biomedical research presentation.Participants learn how to plan, organize and deliver a scientific research talk that is both accurate and captures the interest of the audience. Participants learn how to use audiovisual aids to enhance their message. Finally, participants learn how to conduct an effective question and answer session.While the workshop focuses on research presentations, it also covers teaching skills, including how to engage listeners.Participants learn strategies for connecting to large audiences as well as for conducting small discussion groups.
Practice sessions:
Following the workshop, participants are encouraged to attend a skills practice session.The purpose of the session is to provide each participant with the chance to give a talk and receive feedback.The sessions are videotaped, and participants receive the video of their talk so that they can review their own speaking style. If a participant is not comfortable giving a talk to the group, he/she is welcome to schedule an individual session with the course director.
Longitudinal Teaching Skills Program
Faculty Development Program in Teaching Skills, Randy Barker, M.D., Sc.M., Karan Cole, Sc. D., Joe Carrese, M.D.,Instructors
Individuals work in small interdisciplinary groups with facilitators in a supportive, stimulating, and collegial environment. Participants play a vital and active role in their own learning using real-time dilemmas to explore with others in small working groups through reflection, practice, and problem-solving. Program faculty are also available to consult and develop special programs to meet the needs of individual departments.
Part 1: Essential Concepts
There are 16 consecutive sessions on Thursdays, 8:30 - 11:30, September 4 - December 18, 2008, Bayview Medical Center, Mason F. Lord Building Center
Content areas include facilitation strategies, providing effective feedback, small group meeting facilitation, one-on-one teaching and supervision, and building a successful career as a scholarly educator.

The Longitudinal Curriculum Development Program is held weekly, September-June. Participants work on a curricular project that is both important and possible to implement in their clinical or academic settings. Participants work in groups of 2-5to develop curricula according to a six-step process of curriculum development:problem identification and general needs assessment, needs assessment of targeted learners, goals and objectives, educational strategies, curriculum implementation, and evaluation and feedback. Large-group didactic and experiential learning is complemented by work in progress sessions wherein each group presents their work and receives feedback from other groups, and by regular small group meetings with a highly-trained faculty facilitator who offers guidance, support, and written feedback at each step of the process.The program culminates in a final paper and a presentation before an invited audience. Curricula are usually piloted during the program and fully implemented in the following year.

Without effective feedback, mistakes go uncorrected and good performance is not reinforced. In this workshop, you will observe and identify both poor feedback performance and effective feedback skills in lively demonstrations. You will learn about common barriers to providing feedback and how to surmount them, and can download additional background material, references, and tips for giving feedback to your students, residents, postdoctoral fellows and other trainees.
