Outstanding Clinical Teacher Award

The award will go to a faculty member who is an excellent clinical teacher.  The nominee may be involved in any—or many—types of teaching: GME, UME or CME; one-on-one or large groups; bedside or lecture hall; inpatient or ambulatory; etc.

Specific criteria are not outlined: the selection committee will learn much from nominators’ descriptions of what they value in a clinical teacher and what characteristics of the nominee make him/her so effective.

Eligibility: Faculty member at one or more Mass General Brigham hospital for at least three years

Nominations should include the following:

• at least one and no more than three letters (no more than 500 words each) from students, residents, fellows, or other learners (letters may be co-authored)
• letter from the Department Chair or Division Chief. The Chair or Division Chief will also be asked to submit all available (i.e., unselected) teaching evaluations by trainees/students and any peer review of teaching that might be available.
• optional: letter from one or more teaching colleagues

Nominations should illustrate the ways in which the clinical teacher is unusually effective and should comment on the scope and depth of their impact.
