Popis: Radiation therapists (RTs) are often required to exercise professional judgement when faced with the ambiguity inherent in professional dilemmas not comprehensively accommodated by the professional Code of Conduct. Clinical educators therefore need to design curriculum that motivates students to apply professional judgement in ambiguous situations. Role play and peer debate enables development of competencies related to professional judgement. The aim of this short communication is to report on the rationale for and integration of peer teaching resources that prompt students to justify, through discussion and debate, the basis of their own judgement and those of their peers.
