Talk:Medical education

message: According to Walter Bradford Cannon in his biography The Way of the Investigator, p. 85, he initiated "Case study" methods in medical education. He says that he wrote an article "The Case System of Teaching Systemic Medicine" for the Boston Medical and Sugical Journal. (no date given) He says he was prompted by observing his roomate Harry A. Bigelow prepare for his law courses with the Casebook method. In WP Case study is devoted to sociology with no mention of medicine. Cannon's statement follows:
:The idea of using printed clinical records, that I suggested as basis for discussing diagonosis and proper treatment, was at once favorably received and put into use. Case books on disease of the nervous system, on general medicine, and on diseases of children soon appeared.... That reform started about 1900.
Can anyone confirm Cannon's story. What about today's educational paradigm ?

replies: text: He joined the English Medical Society and was for a time its president. The society held weekly meetings at which students read papers on medical subjects or communicated the history of cases, followed by general discussion.
So I will agree with Una Smith that Cannon did not initiate the use of case reports in med ed.Rgdboer (talk) 22:04, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

message: In Canada, medicine is not technically a graduate entry degree. I think "second entry degree" would be more accurate, as many medical schools (for example the University of British Columbia) allow admission after 3 years of undergraduate study. 96.48.145.148 (talk) 04:26, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Good article, but the "Online Learning" section shamelessly promotes Virtual Dental Patients and BioDigital Human. Such advertising doesn't belong in the article--nor would criticism, for that matter. Wikipedia should be "just the fact, ma'am" (and the uncontroversial facts at that) and avoid saying that X provides "valuable information," "represents a paradigm shift in clinical measurement for dentistry," "demystifyi[es] what goes on below the skin through friendly visuals," or "addresses this problem."

message: Hello, 
I am a medical student working on a project for a course. I will be editing the article entitled "Medical Education" because it is a topic that interests me. The outline for my plan can be found below:  
Introduction : This section is generally well organized. I will review the available references an add to them if needed. I may further summarize the subheadings in one or two sentences. 
Entry-Level Education/Postgraduate education: I will not add much to this section, but review it and edit according to the wikipedia manual of style (MoS). 
Continuing Medical Education: In this section I will include several examples of continuing medical education required to maintain medical licencing. I will include references and links to wikipedia articles on those specific subjects. 
Online medical education: The field of telemedicine is exploding right now and becoming an increasingly important topic in medical education. Teleconferences are utilized frequently in medical education and tele-clinical encounters are starting to be integrated into the medical curriculum. I will expand upon this section briefly and add references. 
Example of medical education systems: I will review this section using the manual of style guidelines, but I will not edit this section substantially. 
Integration with Health Policy: I will review this section using the manual of style guidelines, but I will not edit this section substantially. 
Medical education as a subject-didactic field: The majority of my edits will be in this area. I will delineate various styles of teaching used in medical schools, including Lecture based learning, Problem Based Learning (PBL), Team Based Learning (TBL), and simulation education etc. This may require me to make new pages for each type of learning or simply make new subheadings for each. 
In addition to the above edits, I would like to help translate this article into Spanish, as there is no Spanish version of this article. 
I look forward to working with you on this project! Please offer your comments and critique as necessary. 
Thank you --Hartmanethan (talk) 17:22, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
