Thema:

Being a teacher in the health professions involves delivering and designing education in a world that constantly presents educational, technological, and societal challenges. To effectively deal with these challenges, teachers must be prepared by means of faculty development initiatives. To educate adaptive teachers with great problem-solving potential, it has become clear that faculty development initiatives should focus on the development of adaptive expertise alongside routine expertise. The ingredients for developing adaptive expertise are conceptual knowledge, linking theory to practice, learning together with others, experimentation and reflection (Pelgrim, 2022). These principles could underpin learning activities in faculty development initiatives.
