Publisher's Synopsis
Evidence-Based Education in the Classroom: Examples From Clinical Disciplines shows educators how to use evidence to inform teaching practices and improve educational outcomes for students in clinically based fields of study.
Editors and speech-language pathologists Drs. Jennifer C. Friberg, Colleen F. Visconti, and Sarah M. Ginsberg collaborated with a team of more than 65 expert contributors to share examples of how they have used evidence to inform their course design and delivery. Each chapter is set up as a case study that includes:
- A description of the teaching/learning context focused on in the chapter
- A brief review of original data or extant literature being applied
- A description of how evidence was applied in the teaching/learning context
- Additional ideas for how evidence could be applied in other teaching/learning contexts across clinical disciplines
- Additional resources related to the pedagogy described in the case study (e.g., journal articles, books, blogs, websites)
While the content in clinical programs is quite different, there are many similarities in how to teach students across such programs. Evidence-Based Education in the Classroom: Examples From Clinical Disciplines highlights these similarities and represents a masterclass in how to practice evidence-based education.
