It’s been months since COVID-19 has affected not just schools, jobs, opportunities but our lives in general. The world still continues to adapt to the sudden change and continues to explore how people can cope with the new shift in our society.

In the field of education, teachers are adjusting to the new normal of teaching students virtually with the use of different tools available online. Equally, it has also been a roller-coaster ride in the healthcare industry. Our doctors, nurses, therapists and even medical practitioners have been on the frontline to help and heal those with sickness or who have been affected by the virus despite the struggles of the new guidelines like wearing masks and social distancing.

So, how can we deliver care and train the students in a different and unique way where they still learn effectively? What can telemedicine offer in this industry and by what method can we keep our students engaged and still get the same type of clinical training as they did before?

In this episode, Dr. Drew Nevins, a clinical associate Professor of Medicine at Stanford University, will discuss the pedagogical shift in medical education and how the faculty and students have collectively and quickly developed programs to cope with the times, from the traditional face to face learning environment to all remote two-dimensional space milieu. How is that working and how could faculty continue to innovate and adapt? How are the students doing?

Dr. Nevins gives his take on how the pandemic affected the learning process of medical practitioners and the challenges they faced in order to integrate active learning into a two-dimensional space. You surely don’t wanna miss this episode!

  • As we emerge on the other side of the pandemic, we will be stronger, more flexible, more resilient, and hopefully more compassionate because everyone is going through the same thing, not just in education, in health, families, in workplaces. - Dr. Julieta Gabiola
  • There are ways to approach things that will enable you to still do what you need to do and think creatively to come out with a different perspective on what you're doing. -  Dr. Drew Nevins
