INTRODUCTION: Physical therapist (PT) students learn through clinical practice with the supervision of a clinical instructor (CI). Clinical instructors have teaching, education, and practice experiences that can positively affect their self-assessed clinical teaching effectiveness (CTE), which may improve learning outcomes for students. REVIEW OF LITERATURE: Identifying CI experiences, such as specific teaching, education, or practice expertise, as they relate to effective clinical teaching may be beneficial in the selection of PT CIs and allow instructors to focus on professional experiences that will elevate their self-assessed teaching abilities...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Case-based instruction is broadly used in health professions education, including physical therapy education. Case-based instruction can support achievement of higher-order, applied, learning objectives and clinical reasoning. Instructors strive to represent the diversity of the clinical population in case studies and may have explicit intercultural competency objectives. The inclusion of cultural, racial, and ethnic characteristics in cases or assessments can potentially reinforce stereotypes or inaccurately emphasize these characteristics as direct predictors of health profile...

BACKGROUND: Many UK junior doctors are now taking a year out of the traditional training pathway, usually before specialty training, and some choose to work as a clinical teaching fellow (CTF). CTFs primarily have responsibility for delivering hospital-based teaching to undergraduate medical students. Only a very small amount of literature is available regarding CTF posts, none of which has explored why doctors choose to undertake the role and their expectations of the job. This study aimed to explore the expectations and experiences of CTFs employed at NHS hospital Trusts in the West Midlands...
