Supporting Moral Development in Medical Students through an Elective Course Focused on Moral Self-reflection
Journal Title: Theology and Philosophy of Education - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Due to the high level of stress experienced during study, the moral development of medical students may be being stunted, and in some cases even regressing, compared to other students of the same age. At the Third Faculty of Medicine, we have responded by creating an elective course that offers a safe space for moral self-reflection. The results show that this course can effectively support the moral development in students.
