Student Learning Materials

Find details on student learning materials, as well as teaching payment and session evaluation.


PowerPoint Presentation and Handout

We encourage you to share learning materials with students before your presentation. The renewed Undergraduate Medical Education curriculum is paperless, and learning materials are available to students via the learning management system ENTRADA.

Learning materials may include, but are not limited to:

  • PowerPoint presentation
  • Summary handout
  • Reference material

Slide Submission

Please email learning materials to your Program Assistant (noted below) by the dates highlighted in your confirmation email under “Due Date” for “Presentation & Student Learning Materials” (usually 10 business days before your teaching session).

Formatting

Please do not send your PowerPoint presentation in PDF format. The preferred aspect ratio for presentation slides is 4:3. Slides should contain the bare minimum to outline your talk. Carefully consider the number of slides. More is not always better. (90 slides are TOO many, try to limit to a maximum of 40 slides if possible). See Faculty Development’s Lecture Guide: Improving Lecture Quality for more information on developing your slides.

If you have any questions, please contact your Site Lead through the Program Assistants (click on their name in the table below).

Length of Lecture

The total length of the lecture is 50 mins, not 1 hour. Lectures MUST end at 10 mins to the hour to allow time to set up the next lecture. Please consider using the last 5-10 mins for questions and discussion. Students appreciate the opportunities to ask their questions, and this provides opportunities for students at sites to ask questions. Limit didactic teaching to 45 mins maximum. Also, please consider the proper pacing of your lecture; please try to avoid rushing the second half of your lecture or assigning unfinished lecture material as self-learning.

Faculty Development and Additional Resources

Please visit our Faculty Development site for resources to prepare for your lecture, including the links below.

Payment

If you believe you are eligible for payment for your lecture, please contact your Program Assistant. Clinical Faculty, please visit Teaching Tracking & Payment for more information.

Teacher Assessment

Teachers can expect to be regularly assessed by learners and to receive feedback. While our goal is to provide annual feedback, in some cases, it may take up to 2 years for learners to assess all teachers.

Teachers who are going for promotion, tenure or awards and would like to make sure that they are assessed should self-identify either by contacting their course lead or their local program assistant (see below) before the start of the term or at least 10 business days before the educational activity that they are teaching in.

For more information, please visit Assessment of Teachers by Learners.
