  • Presentation: Podcasting in medical education

    By Pritzker Podcast

    We were invited by the Department of Medicine here to give a talk about the Pritzker Podcast at its Research in Progress conference today. We thought it might be nice to make the slides from our talk available to give some idea of what podcasting in medical education is all about and how it can be applied to other aspects of medical education other than undergraduate medical admissions.

    Podcasting in medical education

    N.B. The word cloud on slide 27 (slide 29 by SlideShare’s count) was created on wordle.net using the audio transcripts from Episodes 1-26 of our podcast. It’s an interesting way to synthesize what we frequently talk about on the show. See a bigger version here.
