Abstract/Notes Excerpt: As the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Chiropractic Education (JCE) I wish to share some thoughts about teaching. Since most of our readers are faculty at chiropractic educational institutions, I would like to offer some inspirational and insightful perspectives. I am not aware of anyone who wishes to be a “bad teacher.” Some pride themselves in being “hard” or “demanding” but never “bad.” But what is a “good teacher?” What constitutes “good teaching?” Standard measures include: the number of articles or books published, faculty rank and academic credentials, student assessment of faculty performance, student performance on exams, and peer evaluation through performance reviews.
The true measure of a “good teacher” or “good teaching” is not easily defined. Today, knowledge becomes obsolete almost as fast as it can be taught. Emphasis on content, while important, pales in the shadow of the “character” of the teacher. The true function of the teacher is to create the most favorable conditions for selflearning.
