Hello-
I am a general internist who is very interested in health literacy.  I am
thinking about trying to develop a seminar/?seminar series for medical
students and/or internal medicine residents which would expose them to
this concept as an element of physician-patient communication.

I envision a series of seminars - first one with introductory info, then
follow-up seminars as a case series (ideally with videotaped encounters to
discuss, or audiotape).  Any of you doing something like this now and have
any advice/materials they'd be willing to share?

Thank you very much for your time-
Anne Pemberton
