Noon–1:30 p.m.

Summary:

The longitudinal integrated clerkship (LIC) model is grounded in principles derived from the sciences of learning–social and cognitive psychology, general education, and medical education. The structure has proved transferable across institutions and contexts and is informing clinical education transformation nationwide and worldwide. This session reviews the case for change and rationale that drove the wholesale redesign of the clinical year from traditional blocks to LICs.
