TLDR
It is implied that teachers appear to compartmentalise their roles as teachers and clinical supervisors respectively.Abstract:
The aim of this study was to describe the different ways medical teachers understand what constitutes a good teacher and a good clinical supervisor and what similarities and differences they report between them Data was gathered through interviews with 39 undergraduate teachers at a medical university The transcripts were analysed using a phenomenographic approach Three categories regarding what it means to be a good teacher and clinical supervisor respectively were identified Similarities between the two hierarchies were seen with the most inclusive categories of understanding what it means to be a good teacher or supervisor focuses on students’ learning or growth In the third category a good teacher and supervisor is seen as someone who conveys knowledge or shows how things are done However, the role of being a clinical supervisor was perceived as containing a clearer focus on professional development and role modelling than the teacher role did This is shown in the middle category where a good clinical supervisor is understood as a role model and someone who shares what it is like to be a doctor The middle category of understanding what it means to be a good teacher instead focussing on the teacher as someone who responds to students’ content requests in a partially student-centred perspective In comparing the ways individual respondents understood the two roles, this study also implies that teachers appear to compartmentalise their roles as teachers and clinical supervisors respectivelyread more

Relations between teachers' approaches to teaching and students' approaches to learning
TL;DR: For example, the authors found that in the classes where teachers describe their approach to teaching as having a focus on what they do and on transmitting knowledge, students are more likely to report that they adopt a surface approach to the learning of that subject, but less strongly, in classes where students report adopting significantly deeper approaches to learning, teaching staff report adopting approaches to teaching that are more oriented towards students and to changing the students conceptions.
