Developing the teaching instinct, 1: feedback.

Abstract

The first in a new series of short educational programmes covering a range of important topics in medical education. Each programme defines the topic, provides some background information, presents some practical tips, gives some theoretical underpinning where relevant, provides some further reading and suggests an activity which can be carried out independently or with colleagues. The series has been designed in collaboration with NHS Education for Scotland as an aid to all engaged as trainers or teachers in the healthcare professions.
