Abstract:
Working Group on Teaching Educators and Clinicians How (WGTEACH) has been charged with writing a report to review best, evidence-based practices in various aspects of the teaching of medical physics. These aspects include not only didactic teaching and mentoring in the classroom and clinic, but also teaching K-12 and undergraduate students and interacting with the public, including patients. This report also touches on virtual and remote learning, adult learning theory, implications for teaching from neuroscience research on learning, and the role of accrediting and governing agencies in education.
