Teaching Styles

Like learning styles, Clinical Instructors are also equipped with varying teaching styles.  As important as it is for a Clinical Instructor to adapt to a students learning style it is also important for Clinical Instructors to develop the ability to vary teaching styles based on the students need.  Please review the resources in this section to increase your knowledge of the varying teaching styles.

Clinical Problem Solving

Clinical Problem Solving can be described as the process a clinician would follow to determine whether modifications need to be made within a patient's plan of care and treatment.  Clinical Problem Solving can also be described as the ability to adapt to patients responses during a treatment while keeping the patient safe.  This skill may include emergency or non-emergency situations.  This can be a difficult skill to assess therefore we have provided you with the following guide. Clinical Problem Solving is not only thought processes of solving a problem but also determining the communication needed, and who to communicate with in any given situation.

Time Management

Time Management is often challenging for a student within the clinical setting and can occasionally affect other aspects of patient treatment and data collection.  Co-workers and colleagues can be affected by poor time management from other members of the team including the student PTA.  The follow information can provide you with time management strategies and tips.

Feedback

This section was created to help combine methods of constructive and positive strategies for supplying your student with feedback.  Not only do students require constructive feedback, positive feedback is also very important in their clinical education.  Don't assume because your student is doing well they are aware of that.  A student without positive feedback may demonstrate decreased confidence, which may affect patient care.  Entry level students still require feedback as that is how they continue to learn and grow as PTA's.
