Critical Thinking Synergism: Combining Therapeutic And Vocational Approaches To Teaching Medical Humanities

Abstract

This article explores a qualitative evaluation of student and tutor perceptions of the educational aims, methods and impact of undertaking a new medical humanities student selected module (SSM) within one medical school in the United Kingdom. The findings of the study build on previous work within this subject area and provide insight of learning outcomes, suggesting implications for future curriculum development.
