Teaching Opportunities for Postgraduate Trainees in Primary Care.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT The purpose of this AM Last Page is to help faculty and postgraduate medical trainees (residents) identify resident teaching opportunities and foster teaching skill development. The Fundamental Teaching Activities (FTA) framework includes three domains in which physicians teach Clinical Preceptor; Teacher Outside the Clinical Setting; and Educational Leader. Based on interviews with faculty and residents as well as our collective and diverse teaching experience, we adapted the FTA framework to be more applicable to resident teaching. The resultant domains are Clinical Teacher; Teacher in Nonclinical Settings; and Educational Collaborator.
