Teaching in Medical Education Faculty Fellows Program
Group and Team Facilitation for Medical Educators
Class begins February 5 and runs through April 30, 2015; 5:15 – 7:45 pm; Thursday evenings, McGlothlin Medical Education Center
This course is designed to help faculty hone their facilitation skills for working with small groups in an interactive learning setting. The focus of this course will be on gaining knowledge and skills about group dynamics, the stages of group development, and the many “hidden” processes that make group life so complex to understand. Our focus will include development of facilitation skills to know when and how to intervene in the interest of learning, how to deal with conflict among team members, and how to help team members learn collaboratively. Faculty fellows will examine group and team leadership, group member roles, team performance, issues of power and conflict, and strategies for high-performing teams. This course is designed to be highly interactive and experiential with practice in developing group facilitation skills.
