Session 1-A PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF INTERACTIVE TEACHING
Moderator: Jason Rosenstock, MD
Session Presenters/Discussants: Jason Rosenstock, MD, Sansea Jacobson, MD, Jody Glance, MD and Priya Gopalan, MD
Brief Description: Are you preparing to teach a class about eating disorders to residents? Did you get invited to do a presentation by the Department of Family Medicine about decision-making capacity? Are you planning to do a session for the unit staff on how dialectical behavioral therapy works? These teaching activities require thoughtful presentations aimed at different learner groups, and the preparation of this material is a common task for clinician-educators. In this breakout session, we will discuss best practices for giving interactive and high-quality presentations with a clinical focus. After reviewing key general strategies around audience engagement, we will assist participants in developing an individualized teaching plan for a specific upcoming presentation, with peer review and discussion of incorporating evidence-based teaching methods. This session is designed to help participants develop or enhance interactive teaching skills that can be utilized to create effective presentations and refresh and improve presentations that they give on a regular basis.
Learning Objectives: At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
  1. Describe general principles of giving an interactive presentation to an audience of learners.
  2. Compare and contrast specific approaches and formats, and when/why you might use one or the other for specific audiences/topics.
  3. Apply the knowledge of principles/approaches to design a teaching plan for a specific upcoming presentation.

This session will open with an overview of WPIC’s telepsychiatry program and describe the regulatory, fiscal, and practical obstacles impeding broader application of this technology. Next the use of telepsychiatry in a nursing home and a rural community outpatient treatment setting will be described, and preliminary data regarding the feasibility and acceptability of telepsychiatry to patients and providers in those settings will be discussed. Finally, the use of an internet chat room to deliver cognitive behavioral treatment to individuals diagnosed with bulimia nervosa will be described followed by a discussion of the lessons learned by supervisors and clinicians relative to the use of this technology for delivering psychological treatment. .
Learning Objectives: Following this session, participants will be able to:
  1. Discuss the role of telepsychiatry in a wide variety of settings, including rural or otherwise underserved areas, and provide an overview of WPIC’s Telepsychiatry Program.
