One hundred and twenty-one residents across Cleveland Clinic have been recognized as outstanding preceptors for year 3 medical students during their core clerkships in 2020. This prestigious recognition is based on a set of criteria including the frequency and quality of feedback provided by the residents to the medical students and the evaluation of the residents by the students.
During their core clerkships, students learn by working closely with residents who take on the large responsibility of teaching, ensuring that students have an excellent learning experience. Giving frequent, timely, specific, non-judgmental and useful feedback is a critical part of teaching.
Each resident, some of whom are CCLCM alumni, was presented with a CCLCM educator pin as a token of appreciation and recognition for their important contributions toward educating future physicians.
