Training Novices to Develop Projects: A Case Study in Academic Medicine |
| |
| Abstract: | The Michigan State University Primary Care Faculty Development Fellowship Program was one of several national programs to prepare primary care physicians for full‐time academic medicine careers. In their new positions as medical faculty, the physician educators would be responsible for developing projects such as curricula, research studies, or new administrative policies. This article explains how we trained novice medical educators to successfully develop curriculum projects. We noticed three vital, generalizable methods that led to success in training novices to develop projects: a clear project assignment, performance‐centered instruction, and personal mentorship. |
