Description
This is a 0.5-2 credit course offered to medical students from Fall 2021 to Spring 2022. The elective is intended to provide medical students with experiential learning in medical education, curriculum development, and change management, as they actively participate in the MedEdMorphosis process (https://pulse.utah.edu/site/MedEdMorphosis. Students will learn about and apply medical education theories and principles as they partner with other students, staff, faculty, and community partners to identify issues, generate ideas, design programs, and manage implementation of change. The experiences gained through the elective will be particularly beneficial to students who have interest in academic medicine and medical education. Students will be able to tailor the participation in the elective to their needs and interests via a rolling credits system based on level of involvement in MedEdMorphosis activities.
