Abstract:
Medical students who are given opportunities to teach and communicate complex information in an understandable manner will be more effective in educating patients in the future. We provided faculty and near-peer training to medical student facilitators of a community outreach program for middle school students to assess which type of training resulted in better teaching preparedness and confidence. Near-peer-trained students were more confident in their teaching compared to faculty trained counterparts; therefore, there may be some added benefit to peer-delivered/faculty-supervised training for community outreach programs.
