Before Watching
To begin, ask students if they ever considered medicine as a career choice. What attracts them to medicine? What kind of life, both professional and personal, do they believe a doctor has?
To help students understand what it is like to be a doctor, ask them to take notes as they watch, observing the different aspects of a life in medicine. What kind of hours do the doctors work? What kind of patients do they treat? Who do they interact with during the day? What skills do they use?
After Watching
Have students review their notes about the different aspects of medical careers. Discuss their observations and consider the following questions. What seemed common among all the doctors? What varied by the specialty they were training for? Which aspects of their experience seemed to be most appealing? least appealing? What kind of personality traits would serve well in a medical career?
