Cinemeducation

Cinemeducation is the use of film in medical education. It was originally coined by Matthew Alexander, Hall, and Pettice in the journal Family Medicine in 1994[1] and later used by Matthew Alexander, Anna Pavlov, and Patricia Lenahan in their text of the same title.[2] Cinemeducation is generally regarded as a pedagogical approach situated within the field of medical humanities.[3] Cinemeducation emphasises the biopsychosocial aspects of medicine.[4] It has been used in teaching family systems theory,[5] end-of-life care,[6] medical professionalism and medical ethics,[7] public health,[8] and in psychiatry[9][10] and mental health services.[11] Cinemeducation is offering space for reflective thinking, stimulating perspective-taking, and connecting knowledge with emotional narratives.[12] Participating in a cinemeducation course can lead to changes in attitudes, knowledge enrichment, an empathic understanding of health-related topics, and an open-mindedness about working in an interprofessional team.[12] Participants attending a cinemeducation course appear to demonstrate enhanced long-term retention of health-related topics, with improved recall persisting into later stages of life.[13]
