CAMPUS INNENSTADT MECUM MODUL 23 STUDIENDEKAN PROF. DR. M. REINCKE Module 23 – How to use curriculum development to build a team of didactical professionals Sophie Niedermaier 1 , Stephanie Keil 1 , Christian Lottspeich 1 , Ralf Schmidmaier 1 , Matthias Siebeck 1 and Martin Reincke 1 1 Deanship of Medicine, Ludwig-Maximilians-University (LMU) Munich Implementation Giving responsibility for the development, organization and implementation of Module 23 to numerous faculty members who were not didactical experts we created a need for knowledge about medical education. It was satisfied during regular team meetings, workshops as well as individual counseling (Fig. 1) and lead to a new awareness for current topics in medical education. By offering a platform to exchange point of views to teachers of all different departments we did not only succeed in implementing an interdisciplinary curri- culum but also a network of didactical experts (Fig. 2). Background In order to reproduce the interdisciplinary approach in patient care in our medical curriculum we implemented an interdisciplinary clinical year (Module 23). Eight interdisciplinary organ-oriented blocks were set, each of them supervised by an elected representative and responsible for the organization of their own teaching and assessing. In order to maintain and improve the current high teaching and organizational standards we needed to develop a system to train the newly involved faculty members in didactical and organizational skills. We also wanted to ensure the communication among the new team members to facilitate a process of didactical professionalism on a broad basis. Contact: Modul 23-Organisationsteam S. Keil, C.
