to teach students how to access their hospital
computer system for patient information. Students
should be provided mid-rotation feedback for
mid-course correction potential in addition to end of
rotations feedback.
Students who are not performing at an acceptable
level in any area should be informed and offered
advice immediately.

practice clinical reasoning skills. Each week
(except one week�see attached schedule) you will
choose one case you encountered in your Family
Medicine clinical experience.

pediatrics as you can during your five weeks. Take
charge of that concept. Ask residents to �teach on
the fly.� Teach each other. Keep lists of learning
issues. Create differentials at morning report and for
each pt you admit.

o Ob-Gyn : You can decide to emphasize different
aspects of the course, i.e. if you're going into
radiology you may want to concentrate on
ultrasounds, or if you're interested in cardiology you
may want to concentrate more on the way
pregnancy affects the heart or on diagnosis of
congenital heart defects. You will have opportunities
to pursue special interests in presentations among
the students and for your teams.

o Surgery I : This is a five week course in clinical
surgery. The teaching sessions are designed to
ensure completeness of coverage. Since none of
these subjects will be entirely new to you, the
instructors will provide opportunities to answer
questions that may have arisen in earlier courses or
in your reading.
