Abstract

A body of research indicates that innovative and student-centred methods of teaching may have a positive effect on students’ ability to retain generic and factual information (El Tantawi et al. 2014). This project outlines a way in which Roleplay and peer-assisted learning can be used to enhance/supplement the administration of current basic research ethics lessons for social medicine graduate students.
