Implementation of a team-teaching seminar on the stigmatization and psychosocial burdens of people with visible skin diseases in the standard curriculum of medical studies
The seminar we designed closes the gap in the standard teaching of clinical and psychosocial subjects on the topic of stigmatization of VSD. By combining different teaching methods (frontal teaching, small group exercises, and discussions) with interdisciplinary team teaching, the sensitive topic of stigmatization in VSD was examined from dermatological and psychological perspectives. Appropriate teaching opportunities for students can improve their medical competence regarding stigmatization and psychosocial stress in people with VSD.
