How to find a web interface for successful education (WISEbyte).
'Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime…'. Although the exact origin of this proverb is unknown, its meaning is clear and wisdom self-evident. In the field of health professions education, there are many websites that can be used as teaching aids, some of which have undergone peer review. Some organizations have created repositories of online teaching materials hosted by various organizations. You can certainly find a lot of 'fish' there to feed your appetite for high-quality teaching materials. For examples of repositories that contain online teaching materials, see Table 1. However, these repositories and other lists of websites cannot be comprehensive, so it is important to know the basic review skills to evaluate websites that may be useful for your teaching that you come across in your journeys around the web. This article intends to teach you 'how to fish' for useful web-based teaching resources to help you succeed as a clinical teacher.
