we actually had an active discussion going, and it gets locked, it didn't even get ugly?? (unless I am missing some deleted posts) moderators killing this message board
The medical/pharmacy rotation model is flawed, mostly 'pimping' questions and self-learning, guessing what they should study based on a review of patients.
I always tried to distill the most important, but basic, information for the students, geared towards their post-grad practice setting.
Saying that, I have observed the new student cohorts, both wanting spoon feeding, but no homework, and a kind of tour experience. For instance, we didn't have daily rounds at a facility I was at, but they demanded it.
Disinterested students in our day, would be happy to have a non-high stakes rotation, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. You can create a low-stakes rotation, with spoon feeding and cessation of all advanced, ancillary information, and the students can still be upset.
I think it's partially generational (We aren't that old here) and the less able state of pharmacy students post-2016 entrants.
What do you guys do for your hospital rotations?
