| Renewing professionalism in dental education: overcoming the market environment. This is an excellent statement on the important role of professionalism in health care education. Although written specifically for a dental school environment, the concepts in this paper are easily transferable to any health care discipline and connects the conceptual issues of conduct, ethics, and professional morality to real world outcomes.

| Antibiotic Resistance and Dual Use http://www.onlineethics.org/Resources/TeachingTools/20359/DualUse.aspx Author: Daniel A. Vallero, Ph.D Dr. David Vallero of the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University has developed an ethics teaching tool that fits very well into a bioscience curriculum. The tool includes an annotated presentation titled "Humility and Hubris in Science: The Rewards and Risks of Emerging Technologies" and a content-rich group activity that focuses on scientific responsibility. These materials can be the basis of an excellent Team Based Learning (TBL) activity. The depth of this material and the scientific complexity are suitable for students at the graduate level.

Summary of Presentation: Ralph Didlake, MD The QEP process identified expansion of the traditional biomedical curriculum into the areas of ethics, professionalism, critical and creative thinking, communication with patients, families and staff, and team work as opportunities for UMMC to improve its student learning environment. An Ethics, Professionalism, and Humanities Across the Curriculum Program addresses these needs. This interdisciplinary, campus wide program leverages existing teaching resources to weave ethics, professionalism, and medical humanities into existing programs using embedded curriculum, e-learning, and simulation. | |
