Review

"A must-have, must-read for any CME professional who has been searching for a guide on faculty training and development. The layout of "AO Principles of Teaching and Learning" is such that each chapter or section can stand on its own and is less prescriptive or textbook-like than it is pragmatic and user-friendly. Fully referenced, with suggestions for further reading, each section is dedicated to a How-To task...Practical tips [on how to run an operating room personnel (ORP) course] could prove to be invaluable to CME providers who are developing education for allied health professionals or conducting cross-functional team training exercises for groups of varied disciplines and learners. A section on Audience Response Systems (ARS)...would be a helpful refresher to CME professionals and faculty alike. The entire CME community gets to benefit from the wisdom [of this book]."--The Journal of Continuing Education in the Health Professions
