Sammanfattning
There is a national goal for medical students to gain self-awareness during their training. However, teaching methods and examination procedures supporting this goal are rarely discussed. Two new course segments – weekly newsletters and personal talks – aimed at stimulating self-reflection and self-awareness during the Medical Psychology course are presented, along with a student evaluation and the teachers’ experiences of the segments.
The course evaluations and teachers’ comments support the perception that the new segments help to increase self-awareness. The teachers share the experience that the motivation, trust and openness shown by most of the students in their letters and talks are an impetus and important basis for increased self-reflection and self-awareness.
For many students, personal talks have been important from a psychosocial point of view. It was possible to capture those in need of support and mediate further contacts when necessary.
