Learning and teaching strategies

The learning and teaching methods include master lectures followed by small group seminars and other activities such as, tutorials, examination of case-studies and discussion. Master lectures are used to introduce new theory topics and the small group seminars that follow enable further exploration of key areas. Discussion is an important learning and teaching strategy as it provides students with an opportunity to express themselves in terms of the concepts under study. Further, it allows for closer contact between teacher and student and can enable development of a variety of communication skills (Jacques, 2003). Students are encouraged to actively engage with the subject matter of the module and are required to review, reflect upon and ultimately refine future practice accordingly.

Groupwork is a key element of EIHC, and as such, a central feature of the module is ensuring that the groupwork experience is a positive one for students. Groupwork activities are closely monitored and facilitated by the lecturer who is responsible for the seminar group.

The nature of the group will have an effect on the learning that takes place and is significant for student engagement. The student group size varies but a cohort is approximately 200 students and there are two cohorts a year. Students undertaking the module are already in established reflective groups which consist of students who share their experiences of clinical practice on a regular basis within the university environment. In EIHC two reflective groups are combined to form a seminar group (approximately 25-30 students). Groupwork can facilitate knowledge acquisition and the development of teamwork skills, which are both essential attributes of the professional practitioner. It provides the opportunity for students to express themselves and can promote the development of communication skills (Jacques, 2003). Further, groupwork has the potential to enhance the educational experience as students learn from and with each other.
