Handbook of Psychiatric Education, Second Edition

"Psychiatric education has increased in complexity and content since the previous edition of this book. Educators contend with a staggering amount of educational content, new teaching methodologies, and regulatory requirements. The excitement of engaging new learners is often offset by an overwhelming sense of information overload. This book is divided into three parts: Part I reviews general scholarship about adult learning principles; mentorship, boundaries, and supervision; and models for a principle-driven approach to educational scholarship, and professionalism and well-being. Part II covers issues germane to medical student education, including curricular and clerkship management, special considerations in contemporary undergraduate medical education, evaluation strategies, and the crossover topic of recruiting and advising medical students into psychiatry graduate medical education. Part III relates to graduate training in psychiatry. Administration, financing and regulatory requirements, curriculum development, specific strategies for managing the problem trainee, and fellowship training are the major topic areas covered. The book concludes with a chapter on career development in psychiatric education. Each author has made a considerable effort to provide references to Web-based content so that readers may obtain the most current information about training and use the principles in each chapter with the most current regulations and guidelines"--
