  15. Results

  16. Qualitative Data: Themes • Revealing • Theory and philosophy • Future professional responsibilities • Craft of teaching • Vicarious, collaborative, learning • Feedback • Safe environment

  17. Revealing theory and philosophy Future professional responsibilities “…enlightened about teaching, I did not realise there was theory, papers etc.” (May 07) “Makes you think of your role as a teacher at FY1, which I had not appreciated so much. Now I feel I would look forward to (at least attempting) to teach students rather than being petrified, or neglecting it as a duty/responsibility” (May 07)

  18. Craft of teaching “Planning our lesson plan, it was the first time I had done this, even though my whole family are teachers” (May 07) “dialogue better than monologue” (Sept 07) “Engage your audience. Use props, visual aids. ” (May 07)

  19. Vicarious, collaborative, learning “Seeing different delivery styles of sessions and picking out the good bits.” (Sept 07) “Small groups for microteaching sessions helped us learn from one another.” (May 07) “Presentation - really fun to do and to listen to others presentations.” (May 07)

  20. Feedback “proper deconstructed feedback” (May 07) “it gives a very precise evaluation of how you are as a teacher” (May 07) “having an educational supervisor in the microteach to highlight theoretical aspects of teaching & question ways of teaching material.” (May 07)

  21. Safe Environment “practical experience in a safe environment” (May 07) “Microteaching - excellent opportunity to try out our skills with a 'safe' and very supportive audience. ” (May 07)

  22. Improvements • Balance of theory and practice • Timing in year • Length of sessions (more time to practice microteaching) shorter sessions, longer sessions • Content, more clinical stuff

  23. Changes • Condensed and streamlined theory teaching • Redesigned plenary 2 to be more active • Included ‘teaching on the run’ • Performing medicine given more emphasis (and compulsory)

  24. The DATE programme • Response to intellectual, GMC and Foundation year needs • All students • 2 days, theory and practice • Improves confidence in students • Further research next year
