PC Reflective Physician Portfolio
The Reflective Physician Portfolio exercise addressing Indigenous Health will take place during the final Pre-Clerkship Foundation Indigenous Health Reflective Physician Practice - Integration Foundation - your RPP entry will be linked to the session on Indigenous Health throughout the Pre-Clerkship Pro Comp Curriculum (MF2: Introduction to Indigenous People’s Health, MF4: Indigenous Health Education Session). The learning needs, perspectives and experiences relating to Indigenous Health Education differ between Indigenous and non-Indigenous students. As such, the material and issues addressed in these sessions were consciously designed to guide learning, reflection and awareness in recognition of these differences. As such, depending on which group you identify with, we would like your reflection to parallel your experiences. As a non-Indigenous student, we would like you to reflect on the recognition of unconscious bias and stereotypes regarding Indigenous peoples and how these have been impacted by the materials presented in the Professional Competencies sessions. As an Indigenous student, we would like you to reflect on your experiences here as an Indigenous medical student and whether the curriculum delivery regarding Indigenous Health has made an impact on the learning environment.
