Discover Mnemonics of Medical Education / Health Professions Education by Dr. Sarah Tanvir, a compact revision aid for students and trainees in medical education.
Built entirely around memory aids, this book turns the dense theory of health professions education into phrases you can actually recall under exam pressure. Learning theories become BC²S — behaviourism, cognitivism, constructivism, socialism — each with a short, plain explanation of what it means in practice.
Coverage runs through the ideas that come up again and again in teaching and assessment: the different faces of a curriculum (official, operational, hidden and null), curriculum frameworks such as SPICES and PRISM, and worked examples showing how to take a real clinical problem and build a course around it, from problem identification through to cognitive and psychomotor objectives.
A focused, no-padding companion for viva preparation and quick revision, written by a teacher who knows exactly which topics students lose marks on.
