There will be four E/H/HL sessions during
the ISD I course. Tentatively, the
topics for the sessions are:
April 14 (
May 7 (
May 21 (
June 2 (
Evaluation: The basic
evaluation scheme has two components.
Both will be graded on a pass/fail basis. You must pass both components in order to
have completed the E/H/HL requirements for ISD I.
1. Journal Assignment: Keep a journal in which you reflect on your
experiences as a medical student. You
should make an entry in your journal at least once per week (on average) over
the ISD I course. In late May/early
June, you will be required to meet with your journal supervisor to discuss your
progress. You need not present your
supervisor with your journal but should come prepared to provide a summary of
the topics you have dealt with in your journal.
Those of you who already have a journal supervisor from the BSM course
will continue with the same supervisor.
If you did not do the journal assignment previously, see Andrew Latus
and you will be assigned a supervisor.
Please note that if you fail to keep up with the Journal Assignment,
you will be required to follow the Optional Evaluation Scheme instead (see
below).
2. Short Paper: Write a short essay (approx. 4-5 pages, typed
double-spaced). Topics will be provided during each E/H/HL session, but you are
also encouraged to write on a topic of your own choosing. See either John Crellin
or Andrew Latus if you would like to discuss a topic. The essay should be submitted to Andrew Latus by Monday, June 9th.
Optional
Evaluation Scheme: If you would prefer not to do the journal
assignment, you may instead do only item #2 above, but in this case must write
an expanded paper (approx. 8-10 pages).
See Andrew Latus ASAP if you want to take advantage of this option.
