Teaching and Assessing Clinical Reasoning (webinar) – February 16, 2021

Description:

Clinical reasoning represents the processes health professionals use to integrate and apply different types of knowledge, weigh evidence, critically think about information, and to reflect upon processes used to arrive at a diagnosis or decision about patient care (Anderson, 2006).  Learners in the health professions need to master these reasoning processes to become safe and competent care providers.  In this workshop we will explore strategies to teach and assess clinical reasoning, with a focus on 5 domains which frequently challenge learners.

By the end of the workshop, participants should be able to

• apply clinical reasoning frameworks to their teaching environment,
• assess learners’ development of clinical reasoning skills, and
• develop educational strategies for individual learners.

Log in information will be sent to webinar registrants prior to the event.

Facilitators:  Teresa Cavett & Joanne Hamilton
