Attitudes toward Learner-Centered Learning at a Faculty Development Course.

Gordon, Geoffrey H.; Levinson, Wendy

Teaching and Learning in Medicine, v2 n2 p106-09 1990

A study measured the effects of a medical college faculty development course in medical interviewing on attitudes toward learner-centered learning. Even though the learner-centered approach was not explicitly taught, participants (n=29) developed favorable attitudes approaching those of the facilitators, and the attitudes were sustained six months.
