James Newland, M.D., is one of the recipients of an Office of Academic Affairs 2018-19 Impact in Education Award. He will receive the Valor in Educational Service Award.<\/p>\n

\n

Valor in Educational Service Award<\/h3>\n

This award recognizes volunteer, emeritus, or adjunct faculty whose daily service to our learners exemplifies the spirit of outstanding teaching or clinical supervision.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n
  • Name:<\/b> James Newland, M.D.\n
  • Title:<\/b> Emeritus professor, UNMC Department of Pathology and Microbiology\n
  • Joined UNMC:<\/b> 1972\n
  • Hometown:<\/b> Grand Forks, N.D.<\/ul>\n

    Why is “service to our learners” important in health care education?<\/b>
    \nA part of our mission at UNMC is to educate high-quality health care professionals for patients. We must give the student a solid base of knowledge and experience at a level of excellence. It is the patient who is the ultimate consumer.<\/p>\n

    Describe your proudest moment as an educator.<\/b>
    \nTwo sophomore medical students failed the Pathology Comprehensive Examination at the end of the year. I personally gave them a summer course in pathology where we went through the Robbins textbook together. Unknown to them, I gave them the same comprehensive examination which they then passed with flying colors.<\/p>\n

    What advice would you give other faculty members who want to have an impact in education?<\/b>
    \nConsider your students as colleagues. Do your best to help them succeed in mastering your course material.<\/p>\n

    Do you have a favorite quote or philosophy on teaching?<\/b>
    \nMy colleague, Ken Metcalf, then chair of anatomy, had his office next to mine, and we became friends. We were talking about instructional objectives, when he summed it up by saying, simply:<\/p>\n

    “Tell the students what you want them to know and then test them on it!”<\/p>\n

    Writing instructional objectives is tedious, but writing questions reflecting those objectives is made easier. Dr. Metcalf’s statement is almost laughingly prosaic, but it tells a truism.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
