Background

Some teachers have undergone systematic training such as CenMED Faculty Development Workshops or CenMED Certificate Programme, or overseas courses (ESME, ASME, Harvard-Macy, Dundee/Maastricht certificate or Masters Courses), many others are not trained to teach. The Enhanced Educate 2 Teach (EE2T) is an online course specifically designed for medical educators with a teaching appointment with the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine). EE2T is an extended version of E2T with more examples contextualised to NUS medicine. Using the examples which underpin the educational theories, learners could internalise and apply in their workplace setting. 

Aims

The Enhanced Educate 2 Teach (EE2T) aims to achieve the following:

1. Provide medical educators with the basics of Teaching and Learning
2. Create opportunities for experts and participants to learn together in a supportive environment
3. Promote useful collaboration and reflection
4. Gradually introduce the medical educators to adopt best evidence ways of teaching-learning and in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL).
