We are in the same line of thought Candice, when you highlighted how some preceptors can easily pass judgments and to some extent embarrass us. This is the kind of scenario we see in our practice especially with doctors who feel that they belong in the upper echelon of the medical world because of their skills, knowledge and experience. But, they should also be reminded that they were once students like us and had to experience the similar failures and mistakes. They should instead create and cultivate a safe learning environment that way students would be able to probe for any supporting evidences, reinforce what was done correctly, correct the mistakes and continuously teach the individual to any possible inputs that need to be addressed.
