The Changing Role of Medical Students takes a comprehensive look at what this means for educators, researchers, administrators, and all stakeholders across health care education. Written by Ronald M. Harden, author of Essential Skills of the Medical Teacher and Eight Roles of the Medical Teacher, and his daughter Jeni Harden, a social scientist with extensive experience teaching both medical and social science students – this book aims to inform and inspire. From the philosophical to the pragmatic, students will better understand the multifaceted roles they can and should embrace in their own education, teachers and trainers will learn how to actively engage students in this process, and administrators will gain insights for how to review and evolve the role of students in their organisations for maximum effectiveness.
