This paper evaluates students' perception of team based learning when compared to traditional lectures. This article is a great resource as far as considering limitations and how to overcome them in team based learning settings such as making sure to diversify team selection by including students with different views, strengths, and outlooks.

This paper has a number of potentially "difficult" scenarios residents might encounter when precepting students and ways to overcome them. Definitely a great source for the resident preceptor.

This website, from the University of Arizona, is a great resource for preceptors. It has everything from a sample syllabus and rotation calendar to helpful hints for preceptors. Also contains links to workshops about precepting.

This PDF excerpt provides a general overview of the various models of the experiential learning process that Kolb used to create his modern-day model. It also describes the characteristics of experiential learning derived from these models.

This was a very helpful article for ideas on incorporating experiential learning into classroom activities. It outlines each step of Kolb's Experiential Learning Model, and ways to include these ideas into an instructional design

This article provides a great overview of Kolb's Experiential Learning Model and Learning Styles. It also provides additional articles to read if you are interested in learning more about experiential learning.

I had to request the item from the library, but they were able to provide me a PDF (that I can't include here). This article describes the use of stories and their benefits in teaching nursing students. I felt that it was applicable as well to other medical professions. The author even provides examples of her stories that she commonly uses and the effects they have had on her students.

This book seems very good in describing the use of narratives in teaching. Unfortunately I didn't purchase the entire book, but I did find various excerpts and quotes from it on the internet that were very helpful in my presentation. I would consider purchasing the text if you are more interested in the theory and foundation of teaching with stories.

I thought this was a very helpful article that describes the use of narratives (stories) in teaching. The article breaks down the basics as well as explains some of the science behind the use of stories in teaching.

This was a very helpful sight that talked about the individual components of the syllabus, things to consider and include, how to break it down when developing your own syllabus. I found it very insightful, yet easy to read and follow

This is also a great article that goes into depth about a "Learner-Centered Syllabus," a term that I had never heard before prior to this. It was very educational reading more into the contents and the ways this can help our learners.

This is a great article that gave me a lot of insight into the syllabus. Prior to reading this article, I thought a syllabus was merely an outline of the course policies. However, after reading this article, I feel like I better understand how beneficial a well thought out and clearly written syllabus can add to the educational experience. I highly recommend checking it out!
