Abstract
Bedside teaching strengthens the link between theory and practice. The tips given here, which were derived from various learning theories and models, aim to provide structure to bedside teaching and to make this format effective, even though empirical evidence is still missing for this specific setting. These 10 tips may not always be fully implemented in each bedside teaching, but they should be applied selectively for targeted students. In essence, they are more to be understood as a repertoire of effective methods and are intended to expand the literature and framework concepts already available.
