Description
There is a growing body of research that suggests that exposing medical trainees to the humanities (including literature, film, poetry, and visual arts) fosters enhanced critical reflection and empathy in physician-patient encounters. Furthermore, such exposure celebrates the subjective and emotional facets of learning alongside more conventional scientific/evidence-based approaches.
This workshop will cover the different approaches to teaching critical reflection and close reading of texts and images. It will explore the future directions for the integration of humanities competency into medical education, allowing participants to gain the experience and the ability to teach these skills.
