Teaching method

In this CU teaching and clinical activities take place simultaneously and the ratio tutor: student is 1:1).

Tutored teaching with a teacher/student ratio of 1:1, where students follow tutors/supervisors in assistance and scientific activities in a hospital environment (appointments, infirmary, ambulatory, operating unit, diagnosis techniques). Students attend the emergency unit of gynecology-obstetrics 12h/week, with the tutor, and participate in one workshop per period of training (4 weeks), giving a 10min talk on their work. Exact workshop dates should be defined at the beginning of training. Students must also write a final activity report, to be discussed with the tutor. Training activities should mingle with the assistance and research activities taking place at the hospital, including weekly meetings. The student should be integrated according to dominant guidelines in the department and should become aware of the administrative procedures common in clinical practice. Because of the professionalizing side of this curricular unit, the student should also discuss clinical histories, practice techniques and procedures, have contact with patient relatives and with other professionals, insofar as multidisciplinary approaches are advised, always keeping a record of such skills and acquisitions in the logbook.
