ABSTRACT

This chapter builds on earlier generic chapters, including those on student learning, assessment, lecturing and small group teaching. Chapters 3, 4, 11, 12, 18 and 21 also contain much of relevance. Here, the distinctive aspects of teaching and learning in medicine and dentistry are reviewed with the intention of elucidating them for the relatively inexperienced teacher, in the context of undergraduate education in UK-style universities.
