C. Clinical Paper Case Assignments

Below are six clinical paper cases. In the event that in-person rotations are not allowed (instead of a ward case) each rotating LU6 block is to select one of the six clinical paper cases and present and discuss the cases  and their corresponding guide questions via powerpoint presentation and group discussion during a zoom web-conference small group discussion with their ORL consultant preceptor. Unless otherwise specified, this preceptorial will be held on the Friday or Saturday of the Rotation Week based on mutual agreement with the ORL consultant preceptor of the week. 

• The ORL resident monitor will assist in coordinating this small group discussion.
• This format would allow for the most optimal opportunity for interactive discussion and immediate feedback between the rotating block and the ORL consultant preceptor. 
• Each student would be graded individually based on the content of the presentation as well as in their participation in the discussion.

All power point presentations and clinical paper case word document submissions must also be emailed to orl251.202425@gmail.com in order for the assignment to be deemed completed. This will provide a compiled repository of all group presentations and individual paper submissions.

Students are firmly reminded to prepare and submit original work (group power point presentations and individual word document papers) without influence from work done by prior rotating blocks and students. Appropriate referencing of sources must also be cited in the presentations and papers. Student work with evidence of plagiarism (from prior students' work or from uncited sources) will be subject to disciplinary action based on the codified rules of the College of Medicine. The block or students also cannot repeat the same case for both preceptorials.

This activity will constitute 25% of each students' ORL 251 grade. 12.5% allocated for each of the two selected clinical cases.
