Anatomy Demonstrator X 2

Profile

Description:
Based in the Faculty of Health, the Peninsula Medical School is committed to three core aims: outstanding clinical education; strong social engagement; and world-class research which all feature strongly in the student learning experience. A key strength is a close relationship with NHS partners, with early clinical contact for all students. The South West offers healthcare and learning opportunities of exceptional quality; Derriford is one of Europe’s largest hospitals and the only trauma centre in Devon and Cornwall. A further strength is our scholarly approach to education, supported by the Division of Education Scholarship. The Plymouth Institute of Health and Care Research is the core of research activity, providing a thriving community that conducts adventurous world-leading research with the explicit purpose of improving the health and care of the populations we serve. We are inviting applications for 2 Anatomy Demonstrator positions from enthusiastic individuals, keen to help our students advance their anatomy knowledge and understanding in an applied context. These Anatomy Demonstrator posts are an opportunity to join our core anatomy education team, to help provide students with support, guidance and high-quality anatomy teaching and learning. Anatomy teaching and learning at the Peninsula Medical School is clinically applied, including topographical and functional anatomy and neuroanatomy. You will primarily teach topographical and functional anatomy, but there is a potential to extend into medical imaging and histology, given appropriate knowledge and experience. The majority of teaching occurs in small groups, providing you with an opportunity to facilitate hands-on, interactive sessions combining virtual anatomy technology, such as the Anatomage system, with topography, working with our team of surface anatomy models. We follow a constructively aligned teaching paradigm, teaching anatomy in the way doctors see it in practice. Our spiral curriculum encourages deep learning of subjects that are expanded on in different contexts and further depth, through each year of the course, ensuring our students are equipped fully to pursue any specialty they prefer. The primary teaching focus is on the undergraduate Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (BMBS), BMBS with Foundation Year, Diagnostic Radiography (BSc) and postgraduate Physician Associate Studies (MSc) programmes, although there may also be opportunities to provide teaching to clinical and allied health profession staff within the NHS. For more information: ****We expect you to have a sound knowledge of anatomy, excellent interpersonal and communication skills and a willingness to develop your knowledge and skills in anatomy education. You will be supported in your training needs with expert guidance in anatomy and its clinical relevance, a grounding in relevant pedagogy, and the time and opportunities to develop your educational scholarship and research practice. Time and support will be provided to attain an educational qualification, where appropriate. This job would be suitable for those seeking to obtain experience in, and further their knowledge and understanding of anatomy and medical education, or those with ambitions to develop and pursue a university or clinical teaching role in the future.
