A Faculty Development Workshop: Teaching the "Family" in Family
Medicine: Honoring Contemporary Approaches and Creating Future Strategies
Dael Waxman, MD, Nancy Newman, MD
This workshop invites educators of all experience levels to explore ways of strengthening their
current and future teaching of family. Through reflection and small-group exercises, participants will
become more conscious of and celebrate the effectiveness of their current efforts in helping learners think
contextually. Having acknowledged the work already being done, the workshop will continue with a focus
on future trends in family medicine. Using the Future of Family Medicine Project as a springboard
for constructing a potential direction for the family in family medicine, workshop participants will
co-create simple and realistic strategies to aid in teaching this emerging model. Participants will leave
the preconference session with an action plan to help shape the remainder of their conference experience
as well as to bring back into their home settings.
Registration Fee: $50
