Abstract: | A new approach to teaching Normal Growth and Development to preclinical medical students is described. By using specially constructed multidisciplinary clinical simulations as training and evaluation devices, students were gradually and simultaneously exposed to: (1) subject matter; (2) the concept of multidisciplinary health care delivery; and (3) the objectives, strategies, and techniques of problem solving and diagnostic reasoning that characterize experienced physicians. The course, designed by a child psychiatrist and medical educators, was taught by a multidisciplinary teaching team drawn from faculty and health care representatives. Student evaluations of the course were favorable. |
