This interactive workshop offers an introduction to Narrative Medicine principles through collaborative and experiential learning. No prior experience in Narrative Medicine is required – all are welcome!
Narrative Medicine 101: An Experiential Introduction Narrative Medicine lies at the intersection of medicine and the humanities. It develops narrative competence: “the capacity to skillfully receive the accounts persons give of themselves–to recognize, absorb, interpret, and be moved to action by the stories of others” (Principles and Practices of Narrative Medicine, Charon et al). In this workshop we will explore the core features of Narrative Medicine: close reading and prompted creative writing. We will reflect on how narrative medicine can promote empathy, strengthen communication, and deepen our sense of meaning in our clinical work.
Facilitator: Kyle Mendonça, Assistant Professor, Pediatrics, University of Manitoba

However, we all view learners’ problems differently, and whether we label a learner as a “problem” depends on many factors. This workshop provides practical strategies for recognizing, diagnosing, and working with learners with problems.
Learning Objectives: By the end of the session, the participant will be able to
* apply a framework to diagnose a problem learner, * identify practical strategies for working with a problem learner, and * describe how to manage reactions to difficult feedback.
