Since attending your workshop, I've completely changed the way I teach geriatric pharmacotherapy to our PharmD students. My classes are now case-based, with the case up front with some active learning techniques. I then use the second half of class to give a lecture, but I only highlight the points that didn't come out during the case discussion. I find it satisfying, and the students say they really like it.

Case studies are a staple teaching technique I use with my students to allow them to see the importance of using the knowledge they are gaining. Students don’t forget the cases we use in class. Months later, I only need to mention the title of a case to bring them all back to the "moral of the story." Cases stimulate the kind of learning we all continue to do throughout life.
