- Description
- In this chapter we provide a background on the topic of clinical education for teachers who are new to health professional education. A unique facet of clinical education is that the learning experiences for students occur in both academic settings and the workplace. The connections and boundaries between these two settings of education fundamentally shape the practice of clinical education. The language of clinical education is often couched around the notions of relationships and partnerships, reflecting the dependence on participation in the education of future health professionals shared by teachers located in both academic and clinical environments. Few would contest the importance of building, negotiating and sustaining relationships as fundamental concerns for all involved in providing clinical education. However, the partnerships that span these two sectors and the experiences of negotiating these partnerships are complex and dynamic.
