Abstract:
To realize the goals of an experiential curriculum, medical educators need support to enact a different kind of teaching: ambitious teaching. Ambitious teaching promotes curricular aims and fosters responsive, interactive environments to elicit student thinking and facilitate student-to-student discussion of clinical concepts and reasoning. The purpose of this article is to provide a framework for ambitious teaching that can be used to meet the complex challenges of experiential learning. Specifically, we describe the ways in which medical education curriculum and faculty developers can support ambitious teaching and, ultimately, enhance curricular outcomes.
