Is it Hot in Here? Learning Climate in Medical Education

Led by:

Brad Sharpe, MD

Associate Professor of Clinical Medicine

Department of Medicine
UCSF School of Medicine

Teaching in the clinical setting is challenging.  Creating a positive and effective learning climate can be essential to maximizing the experience and education for learners (and the enjoyment for the teacher!).  This workshop will give teachers the skills to create a positive learning climate – to make the clinical teaching setting a place where learners want to be.

During this workshop, participants will:

  • Engage in a discussion of the key behaviors which can enhance the learning climate
  • Review videos of clinical teaching and discuss the application of the key behaviors pertinent to the learning climate
  • Participate in a small group discussion of how to apply the learning climate behaviors to their individual clinical teaching

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

  • Appreciate the importance of establishing a positive learning climate
  • List key behaviors to create a positive learning climate
