SHO Teaching Formal Clinical Teaching We run a five week intensive programme of bedside tutorials three times per year, January/February, May/June, October/November. These courses are aimed primarily, but not exclusively at the MRCPI examination. These tutorials are all consultant provided and take place at 5.00pm to maximise attendance and to allow SHOs in peripheral jobs to attend. Consultants are asked to focus on a short case format (see page 8 of the Postgraduate Medical Training Booklet). At the end of the course feedback from SHOs as to how the course could be improved is analysed. We use the Pyramid discussion method which has recently been successfully implemented for our undergraduate students. Return to Contents 54
