Where Are Pedagogies in Teaching Hospitals? A Call to Action

Abstract

Teaching hospitals and academic medical centers are the heart of medical education, serving as the primary environments where future physicians and allied health professionals are formed [1]. However, a striking imbalance has emerged in institutional discourse. While these centers are founded on a dual mission of service and education, current literature is dominated by management, revenue generation, and financial sustainability [2,3]. Pedagogy the intentional science of learning is conspicuously absent.
