Main vectors in the pedagogical training of residents and postgraduate students of a medical university

Abstract

The article describes the specifics of pedagogical training courses for residents and postgraduate students. Analysis of regulatory documents and scientific literature made it possible to assess the pedagogical activity of a doctor, and substantiate the need for its study in residency. Analysis of pedagogical training vectors for residents at the Pavlov First Saint Petersburg State Medical University showed that the training program includes following vectors: development of pedagogical competencies for work in “school for patients” and psychological and pedagogical support in the process of diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation; ensuring the preservation of the patient dignity; facilitating patient-­centered care. It also describes the specifics of the pedagogical training of postgraduate students, related to activities of a higher school teacher: during this stage of training, competencies are formed that are focused on pedagogical activity, teaching at a medical university. As part of the training of postgraduate students at a medical university, knowledge and skills are developed in the planning and implementation of the pedagogical process in a higher educational medical institution. At the same time, for the doctor-­teacher practitioner, the importance of all the competencies that are included in the pedagogy program for residents remains. Thus, the principle of the continuity of post­-graduate pedagogical training is implemented.
