OCOM 7110 - Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine Honors 1
This sixteen-week course will provide second year Osteopathic medical students with an opportunity to advance their skills in, understanding of and capacity to teach Osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) beyond the level possible through the standard year 1 & 2 curricula. The topics presented by our OUCOM director of faculty development will be: “giving constructive feedback”. A weekly instructional hour designed to prepare these students to teach year 1 students as table trainers in the Osteopathic manipulative medicine lab will constitute the lecture portion of the course. One faculty development session will be provided fall quarter to focus honors students teaching skills. Each weekly lab period is 2 hours in length. During that lab each second year honors student will be supervising the progress and facilitating the understanding of six to eight year 1 students in a setting where faculty lead the lab and provide the resources to answer questions that the honors students have and/or questions year 1 students have with which the honors students need help. This allows the honors students to deepen their understanding and refine their palpatory skills following the adage, “see one, do one, teach one.” A journal club will be scheduled once each quarter with review of articles relevant to Osteopathic philosophy, principles and practice. The honors students will have the opportunity to evaluate articles and exchange ideas with OMM faculty and post-graduate residents. There will also be one 2 hour lab session per quarter that will bring new diagnostic and therapeutic skills into focus (beyond those taught in the courses in the first two years).
