Background: Pedagogical strategies related to clinical instruction are needed to improve students' education in the clinical setting. Description: In this article, we use the relevant literature to identify and define “effective” clinical instructor behaviors in athletic training.

Objective: The purpose of the article is to provide a brief background on the following paired-behaviors: communication-action, demonstration-practice, and instruction-evaluation as key elements to effective clinical instruction in athletic training education. Educational Advantages: If clinical instructors recognize the importance of using these paired-behaviors in clinical education, it may dramatically impact student learning.
