The approach to teaching at the Dina Recanati School of Medicine
Key principles of the teaching approach:
Interdisciplinary class
The program features a diverse cohort of undergraduates from various academic backgrounds, fostering group collaboration and mutual enrichment through Team-Based Learning (TBL) alongside individual learning. This structure also provides exposure to a range of scientific disciplines and their unique skill sets.
Clinical training starting from the first week of studies, with an emphasis on community medicine
The program emphasizes the development of diagnostic and treatment skills, combined with a compassionate, patient-centered approach tailored to individual needs. Clinical training will be integrated throughout the years of study and conducted in collaboration with Israel’s leading medical institutions, our partners in establishing the school.
An innovative curriculum designed with an interdisciplinary, spiral model, combining individual and group learning and based on clinical cases
Each daily study unit includes four complementary layers of learning: self-directed study, active review sessions with the lecturer, small-group learning in designated classrooms, and clinical practice exercises with doctors in the simulation center.
Continuous learning and skill acquisition in a evolving medical landscape
The program places a strong focus on encouraging self-directed learning and creative thinking that challenges boundaries and conventions, along with exposure to medical innovations and advanced technologies.
Innovative, scientific learning environment
Students will benefit from access to state-of-the-art research and teaching laboratories.
A compassionate and professional approach to patients and colleagues
Based on the mentorship and personal example of senior healthcare officials and faculty members.
Students’ personal development
Developing excellence, personal and professional growth, and flexible, boundary-breaking thinking. Providing skills in leadership, entrepreneurship, research, and innovation.
Encouraging engagement across a wide range of academic disciplines
Promoting involvement in teaching, research, sustainability, societal contribution, innovation, and entrepreneurship. Students will be integrated into the various fields in alignment with their aspirations, with the aim of enabling them to pursue their passions.
