title: Giving effective feedback to medical students: a workshop for faculty and house staff.
abstract: Medical school faculty members and house officers often feel uncomfortable giving direct, behaviorally based feedback on performance to medical students. This paper describes a structured approach to teaching faculty members to give effective feedback to medical students, using an interactive workshop format. Starting with six key principles for effective feedback, participants practise giving feedback to 'standardized students' and develop strategies for framing the feedback in terms which are useful for students.This paper also describes the development of the workshop scenarios and provides the authors'specific strategies for giving effective feedback in various situations.
