Teaching Practice-based Clinical Reasoning and Teamwork to 3rd year Medical Students – What Works?”
The research aims to identify how third year medical students at SOMs learn two essential skills which are important  to be developed in medical graduates: clinical reasoning and teamwork. Clinical Reasoning is the ability to apply reasoning skills to clinical situations and teamwork is the ability to work in a team environment. This research intends to assist the School to develop best practice guidelines to teach practice-based clinical reasoning and teamwork from a student perspective in GP Clinical Rotations.
