SURG 7810 - The Healer's Art
Description
The Healer's Art brings together medical students and experienced physicians in a discovery model of learning. This Discovery Model relies upon open and honest sharing of insight and life experience which allows students and faculty to explore what is important to them in small groups. The course combines didactic and experiential components. 10% of course time is didactic with faculty lecturers sharing their experience in life and medicine; 90% is devoted to small group experiential learning including reflection on life experience and journal keeping. There is a set curriculum created and provided by the Remen Institute for the Study of Health & Illness (RISHI) at Wright State University, Boonshoft School of Medicine. The Healer's Art is now offered in more than 90 medical schools in the US and around the world. The evaluations are almost uniformly outstanding.
