Didactic lectures The problems with

traditional didactic lectures is that they often present information that targets one of the many learning style of the students involved.

In addition, the time & resources required to deliver the material is high and often does not completely meet the needs of those who are participating

http://www.axuedu.com/

Pros and Cons of Didactic Lectures

Traditional didactic lectures address the delivery of factual knowledge; however one can question both the effectiveness as well as efficiency of this mode of education

The traditional didactic lecture is more passive in nature & less effective as a teaching tool compared with active learning methods

Knowledge Transfer a Growing Challenge

Effective knowledge transfer is of paramount importance for the maintenance & advancement of our health care system

Traditional Education Methods Need Change

Traditionally, medical education had as its foundation

a combination of didactic instruction in the classroom

& integrated, hands-on "Socratic Method" learning

in the clinical setting

Of late an increase in the use of problem-based learning

discussions (PBLD's)

In an effort to integrate basic science knowledge & clinical

decision making with a goal of teaching critical decision making

skills to upcoming physicians & other health care providers
