HEUTAGOGY In Medical Education

Heutagogy in medical education considers the transformative power of self-determined learning in shaping the doctors and healthcare professionals of tomorrow. Founded deeply on the principles of autonomy, capability, and lifelong learning, heutagogy sets itself apart from blended instruction, that is, it empowers the learner as an active architect of his educational journey.This book provides a mix of theory and practice aiming at:- A clear theoretical foundation as to what heutagogy is, including its divergence from pedagogy and andragogy.- Practical applications of designing heutagogical learning environments in medical education.- Examples, tools, and frameworks to actually implement self-directed and self-determined learning in the real world.- Reflections arising from the author's own experience throughout the MHPE program, together with years of teaching.Written for educators, curriculum designers, and medical students, this work acts as both a philosophical overview and a hands-on guide. This book offers the attitude, frameworks, and energetic inspiration needed to carry the future of learning forward.
