Distance Learning

Required adult neurology clerkship students placed outside of the Seattle area will need to watch the orientation video and weekly case lectures. Look for the orange instructions for away students on individual pages throughout this website. If you have questions about the orientation or the course, please contact the clerkship director. Here is also a handy printable requirements checklist to keep you on target.

Week	Day	Topic
Week 1	Monday (If the first Monday is a University sanctioned holiday, please check with the clerkship director and clerkship site about the start date. The policy is that students should follow the holiday schedule of the site they are at rather than the UW campus holiday schedule.)	View Clerkship Orientation Video
Weeks 1, 2, 3	Thursday, 1PM	Two online case-based problems will be assigned each week. Submit answers via the case answer page to Dr. Kraus by Thursday at 1PM Pacific Time. If you have any difficulty submitting an answer, please see the cases page for trouble shooting suggestions. Please note that these case numbers are different than those assigned to Seattle-based students. Weekly case lectures and answers will be available via the links below on Thursdays after 1PM. Once available, lectures will remain available through the end of the course.
