Abstract
This literature review explores key theories and practical strategies in postgraduate medical education. It examines essential learning strategies, such as didactic and experiential teaching methods, structured lesson planning, and models such as Maslow's hierarchy and Kolb's experiential learning cycle. Active learning techniques and feedback models, crucial for guiding medical trainees' growth, are also discussed. The review then shifts focus to assessment, looking at both formative and summative approaches, Miller's pyramid of competence, and Van der Vleuten's utility equation. By evaluating assessment formats, blueprinting, and feedback, this review offers insights into educational strategies that enhance postgraduate medical training.
