Welcome to Faculty Development at the CUNY School of Medicine!

FD Thursdays

Join our faculty development sessions on the first and fourth Thursday of the month, via Zoom. We send out invitations to CUNY School of Medicine faculty and staff, and to clinical faculty at affiliated hospitals and centers.

Tips and Tricks for the Teacher's Toolbox

Look out for the biweekly circular with curated YouTube or self-produced videos, article briefs, and other relevant information, titled Tips and Tricks for the Teacher’s Toolbox!

Medical Education Journal Club

The Club convenes on the third Thursday of the month via Zoom, to discuss key articles in medical education that are relevant to faculty responsibilities as educators.

Faculty Development Thursdays

We hold faculty development sessions on Thursdays. The schedule purposely designed so as not to conflict with various committee meetings, is as follows:

  • First Thursday of the month: 12:00 – 1:00 pm
  • Fourth Thursday of the month: 12:00 – 1:00 pm

To facilitate optimal attendance, we hold all sessions on Zoom. Look out for the invitations that we send at the beginning of week, to CUNY School of Medicine faculty and staff, and also to clinical faculty at affiliated hospitals and centers. We cover a wide variety of topics including providing feedback, questioning techniques, active learning, non-verbal communication, and active listening to name a few. Check the calendar for upcoming session topics. PowerPoint files, video recordings and other materials from past sessions are available under Resources.

One-on-One and Small Group Sessions

We provide guidance for various teaching-related tasks and projects. Do you wish to refine your class presentations to conform with multimedia learning principles?  Would you like us to observe your teaching and provide feedback? Are there other topics that you would like us to address?

Faculty Development Sessions at Clinical Sites

We are available to support faculty, residents, and other clinical staff with anything related to student teaching and supervision in the clinical environment. Popular topics include setting expectations for learners, teaching clinical reasoning, professionalism in medicine, giving feedback, and writing effective narrative assessments. Sessions can be delivered virtually on Zoom or live at your clinical site, and can be customized to suit your needs. Please contact us to arrange a session for your department!
