Teaching MethodsFlipped Classroom model will be used while teaching this course. Students will gain first exposure to new course material outside of class, usually via reading or watching lecture videos/audios, and then class time will be used to assimilate that knowledge through classroom discussion. Students will access key course content individually prior to class time, generate their questions, underline the points that they find most difficult or hardly understand, and then meet face-to-face in the larger group with similar misunderstandings to explore content through active learning and engagement strategies. Students will assume responsibility of their own learning, and study core content before class. Students will be required to view different types of video materials related to teaching and learning and asked to provide reflections based on their own knowledge as learners and referencing the readings. Students will be asked to post their comments on the online discussion forums via blackboard ad provide feedback to their peers as well as react to readings or video materials. It is important that feedback is given in a constructive, thoughtful and professional manner. Students are expected to watch the relevant week’s video/audio before attending the class, and track their progress toward fulfilling the requirements of the course. Students will be asked to actively participate in their own learning by videotaping their clinical interviews and assessing their own progress. It is important that clinical interviews are conducted in a professional manner.
