Abstract:
In a workshop for health care education teachers, participants are expected to understand new teaching approaches, acquire them, and prepare themselves for tomorrow’s education. While role play is a well-known method for learning in the clinical classroom, this paper reported on an innovative learning strategy that utilizes skits. Firstly, participants generated ideas and set goals to demonstrate how they would change their teaching from tomorrow. Secondly, they arranged the setting for skits, made scenarios based on their own goals, decided the cast from among the group members, and performed the skits in front of the other participants. Thirdly, they did a peer review and debriefing of their skits. This innovative approach may accelerate participants’ ability to set practical goals that should change their future teaching behaviors.
