The knowledge base for medicine and medical education is continuously evolving, prominently medical oncology. These quick advances expose the oncologists to the pressing need to be up-to-date in their fields and complicate the oncology education of medical students and oncology fellows. As the international societies have developed new tools to help both practitioners and trainees stay abreast of the new advances, we have incorporated the debate teaching tool in our oncology fellowship program. A survey of the participants in the debate sessions over the last three years shows that fellows considered this teaching tool effective in consolidating and enriching their medical knowledge, enhancing their research and presentation skills, improving cognitive and communication skills as well as encouraging evidence-based learning.
医学和医学教育知识库不断发展,尤其是医学肿瘤学。这些快速进展使肿瘤学家迫切需要了解他们领域的最新动态,并使医学生和肿瘤学研究员的肿瘤学教育变得复杂。随着国际社会开发了新工具来帮助从业者和受训者了解新进展,我们已经将辩论教学工具纳入了我们的肿瘤学研究员计划。对过去三年辩论课程参与者的调查显示,研究员认为这种教学工具在巩固和丰富他们的医学知识、提高他们的研究和演讲技能、提高认知和沟通技能以及鼓励循证学习方面非常有效。
