  • Title: Transgenerational learning: maximising resources, minimising teaching gaps and fostering progressive learning.
    Author: Clearihan L, Vogel S, Piterman L, Spike N.
    Journal: Aust J Prim Health; 2011; 17(1):29-34. PubMed ID: 21616021.
    Abstract:
    The need to rationalise teaching resources underpinned a project at Monash University that used a Delphi technique to re-examine the teaching curriculum of two key topic areas in the medical curriculum - ophthalmology and dermatology - from an undergraduate, graduate and vocational perspective. Using Bloom's taxonomy the learning objectives from these topic areas were collated and analysed. This process allowed the revising and redistributing of learning objectives of the curricula to reduce the likelihood of duplication of teaching or more importantly gaps in teaching occurring. This process highlighted the potential utility of using a transgenerational approach to curriculum planning but the outcomes are limited due to the small number of participating educators and the lack of formal evaluation of the method.
