Abstracts from the Proceedings of the 2004 Annual Meeting of the Association of Directors of Medical Student Education in Psychiatry (ADMSEP).

摘要

The Association of Directors of Medical Student Education in Psychiatry (ADMSEP) had its 30th Annual Meeting in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, June 24 to June 26, 2004. Abstracts were selected by a subcommittee of the ADMSEP Executive Council based on the quality and originality of the work and its presentation, its suitability to abstract form, and its general interest to readers of Teaching and Learning in Medicine. As these abstracts reflect, the 2004 Annual Meeting focused on new directions in education, especially on curricular innovation, interdisciplinary teaching in psychiatry, and integration of neuroscience into psychiatry curricula. Consistent with the national trend, a plenary session was devoted to objectives and competencies as they relate to medical student education. Several workshops were devoted to practical issues in teaching medical students, such as how to make these interactions engaging and motivating, and how to use electronic resources. The impact of today's capitalist society on health and psychiatric education was addressed in a special presentation by Dr. Frederick Sierles.
