Using Gagne's "Instructional Design" to teach clinically applicable knowledge in small groups.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Anesthesia trainees are expected to perform tasks under non-direct supervision as soon as possible in their clinical training. Often they rely on only superficial rote learning, which might lead to medical errors. We have developed a lesson plan that is based on this educational need using Gagné's Instructional Design for the example of teaching the complex preoperative management of diabetic patients. Our aim was to use Gagne's approach successfully for the teaching of non-procedural skills.

Methods

We implemented a comprehensive lesson plan that was developed on the example of a clinical pattern - the preoperative assessment of diabetic patients - using Gagné's systematic nine-step model of instruction design. After the lesson, we analysed the trainees' opinions
