Residents-as-teachers campaign started abroad during the last decade of the twentieth century. In India, though used informally for teaching of undergraduate students, residents have mostly been used for patientcare and their formal induction as teacher in Indian scenario is rare. Accordingly, not much effort has been made to train them formally in educational technologies. Teaching job requirements of residents are not the same as that of medical college faculty; as such, a program designed for medical college faculty will not prove equally effective for the residents. There is urgent need to train the residents in educational technologies for tapping their full potential as teachers and for this to happen, there must be a training module, tailor-made for the teaching-job requirements of the residents. This paper proposes such a program, after emphasizing the need of inducting residents in departmental formal teaching activities.
住院医师带教活动始于 20 世纪最后十年的国外。在印度，住院医师虽然在本科生教学中非正式地使用，但主要用于患者护理，在印度的情况下，他们作为教师的正式入职很少见。因此，在教育技术方面对他们进行正式培训的工作做得很少。住院医师的教学工作要求与医学院教师不同；因此，为医学院教师设计的项目对于住院医师来说不会同样有效。迫切需要培训住院医师使用教育技术，以充分发挥他们作为教师的潜力，要做到这一点，就必须有一个培训模块，专门针对住院医师的教学工作要求来定制。本文在强调让住院医师参与部门正式教学活动的必要性后，提出了这样一个方案。
