Anotace

The Medical Ethics 2 - practice builds on the foundational course Medical Ethics I – Lecture and is intended for senior students who already have experience from clinical practice. Its aim is to deepen students’ ability to engage in ethical reasoning and decision-making in real-life situations where medical knowledge intersects with moral responsibility.

The course focuses on the application of ethical principles in specific clinical scenarios and on the analysis of ethical dilemmas related to the beginning and end of life, allocation of resources, informed consent, and the professional responsibility of healthcare practitioners.

Emphasis is placed on discussion, argumentation, and reflection on one’s own attitudes. Students learn to formulate and defend their positions with reference to relevant academic sources and to develop skills in respectful and effective communication in situations involving differing values and perspectives. The course thus contributes to the development of ethical-clinical reasoning and to the formation of professional integrity in future physicians.

4. construct arguments supported by academic sources and engage in respectful and well-reasoned discussion that acknowledges differing perspectives
5. reflect on their own values, attitudes, and professional responsibility in the context of clinical practice

Přístupy, postupy a metody používané ve výuce

Teaching is delivered through interactive seminars that emphasize active student participation and the use of their own clinical experience.

The primary method is to work with case studies, including their analysis and group discussion, which supports the development of skills in identifying ethical dilemmas, analyzing them in a structured way, and proposing justified solutions.

The course also includes guided discussions focused on formulating and defending individual viewpoints, working with arguments, and engaging with different perspectives. Emphasis is placed on respectful and professional communication, openness to differing views, and reflection on one’s own values and professional responsibility.

An integral part of the course is independent study of recommended literature and preparation for seminar discussions on selected ethical topics.

Způsob ověření výstupů z učení a požadavky na ukončení

Achievement of the learning outcomes is assessed through continuous evaluation of students’ ability to analyse ethical dilemmas, apply principles of clinical ethics to specific situations, and formulate and defend their own positions.

The award of credits is conditional upon regular attendance and active participation in seminars, particularly through discussions and case study work. Emphasis is placed on preparation for classes, quality of argumentation, and respectful communication.

Náhradní absolvování
