If possible, teach by giving students '''tasks''' from real cases and present to you what they would do. Until you know a student better, assume that the person is uneducated enough to need to ask or look up how to do something, but at the same time smart enough to only study what is needed to perform the task, so a greater responsibility means a greater need to study. | If possible, teach by giving students '''tasks''' from real cases and present to you what they would do.

If possible, teach by giving students tasks from real cases and present to you what they would do. Until you know a student better, assume that the person is uneducated enough to need to ask or look up how to do something, but at the same time smart enough to only study what is needed to perform the task, so a greater responsibility means a greater need to study.
When making MCQs, keep the presentation brief, with only little irrelevant and/or misleading information. Everyday pathology work offers enough practice in finding the relevant information among medical records, lab results etc.
