Competence areas of health science teachers – A systematic review of quantitative studies

Abstract: It is important to identify the core competencies required by health science teachers in order to train highly competent healthcare professionals. Based on the findings of this systematic review we suggest that teachers should be encouraged to gain university education and actively participate in research, and that younger teachers should have opportunities to practice the relevant teaching skills to build competence.

“…The educators' ethical competence was discussed from educators' personal perspectives, the organisations' perspectives and, not least, students' perspectives. This is consistent with findings of the systematic review by Mikkonen et al (), that ethical aspects are important elements of health sciences educators' competence. For student‐centred pedagogy, educators must have holistic ethical awareness, and the participants highlighted the importance of self‐reflection and personal development to foster the required ethical competence.…”

“…The data provided rich insights, reaching saturation at each category level. A previous systematic review (Mikkonen et al, ) found that educators with lower degrees generally did not attach great importance to developing their own research skills and preferred to use traditional teaching approaches, such as using their own experiences from clinical practice and textbooks as teaching materials (Koivula, Tarkka, Simonen, Katajisto, & Salminen, ). In contrast, educators who participated in this study expressed awareness of the importance of research, and using evidence‐based knowledge in their daily work practices.…”
