@hkaiser : I am also a seasoned instructor and wondered if I was stuck in my ways. I did make mistakes early on and have had alot of trial and error learning. I am pleased that I hit the marks on almost everything. That is not to say I am complacement, I change the material around every term. I am professional, care about all of the students ( I don't want to hear any history that a student may have). My methods of teaching are varied and have gotten alot of positive feedback. My ice breaker to my OB/Peds students, is what is your "fear factor". Many students going into OB are scared to death and I never knew how scared they were until I asked them that question. I can reassure, and appear to have credibility drom the very first day.
