Description for 2024/25

The Learning and Teaching in Healthcare module builds on content introduced in Year 1 & 2 of the MSci Physiotherapy programme and enables the student to recognise and implement best practice in teaching to education in clinical practice.
Students will have the opportunity to develop and evaluate a learning resource inspired from specific aspects of practice experience.
The module aims to prepare the student to work in diverse settings whilst also developing transferable skills (such as giving and receiving effective feedback, recognising best practice in education, evaluating practice) that can be applied in a variety of healthcare settings and specialities.

Aims
This module aims to enable the students to evaluate approaches to Learning and Teaching and their application in their own development, the supporting of peers and the management of physiotherapy patients and to develop the skills to effectively and efficiently plan, deliver and evaluate education in a healthcare setting.
