Abstract:
Adapting teaching to the clinical setting is most successful when the teacher and trainee are able to work alongside of each other allowing the cognitive apprenticeship model to be embraced. Six tools of experiential learning as components of this framework are described including scaffolding, modeling, coaching/supervision, articulation, reflection, and exploration. These tools provide useful guidance for supervisors to teach in clinical settings. Inherent in this process is the concept of validation of the trainees and includes the importance of supervisors cultivating nonjudgmental acceptance of themselves. Optimal teaching and learning in the clinical environment requires investment of time and resources.
