Tonight we had an EMQ and 5 essay plans.
Essay 71 is an example of a topic that you probably don't know much about.
Try to produce and answer without looking up references.
You may get a topic like this is the exam and it is good to have practised how to scratch around for enough marks to pass - you will surprise yourself by how much you manage to come up with.

Education.
I am not an expert in this topic and offer this as some
help to working out answers if you get a question on teaching methods, which
apparently has happened. If you are an expert and can help to improve what
follows, that will be much appreciated.
If you get a question in the exam, please try to remember
as much as possible, particularly the option list and send it to me.
There are often a variety of different techniques that
could be used. I would guess that the exam committee will take care to restrict
the option list so that it is clear which is the best option.
Lead-in.
The following scenarios relate to medical education
Pick one option from the option list.
Each option can be used once, more than once or not at
all.
Abbreviations.
EMQ: extended,
matching question.
PBL: problem-based
learning.
Scenario 1.
A woman is admitted with an eclamptic seizure. The acute
episode is dealt with and she is put on an appropriate protocol. You wish to
use the case to outline key aspects of PET and eclampsia to the two medical
students who are on the labour ward with you. Which would be the most
appropriate approach?
Scenario 2.
You have been asked to provide a summary of the key
aspects of the recent Maternal Mortality Meeting to the annual GP refresher
course. There are likely to be 100 attendees. Which would be the most
appropriate approach?
Scenario 3.
You have been asked to teach a new trainee the use of the
ventouse. Which would be the most appropriate approach?

students to prepare some questions about breech delivery which they can ask of
their peers when they next meet. Which technique will you use?

unit’s medical students. You are uncertain about the amount of basic physiology
and endocrinology they remember from basic science teaching. Which technique
