Perception checking the professor will assign activity and group(s) depending on class size

/in /by

 

PERCEPTION CHECKING
THE PROFESSOR WILL ASSIGN ACTIVITY AND GROUP(S) DEPENDING ON CLASS SIZE

The Gender Game. Divide the class into men and women. Each group is to come up with 5-10 questions they have always wanted to ask the opposite gender but, for some reason or another, never have.

They are to rank their questions in importance because the class may not get to all the questions. Two simple rules govern the limits here:

you may not ask a question of the opposite gender that you are unwilling to answer yourself, and

you should avoid questions that are insulting (i.e., specific sexual behaviors that might embarrass some class members) or that tend to generalize about all members of a gender (e.g., “Why do women always go to the bathroom in pairs?”).

Groups meet face to face after about 20 minutes allotted to question-generation, and the instructor acts as moderator as one “side” and then another asks one question at a time; each time the opposite side can put the question back to them.

The instructor should encourage all members of the class to answer the question put to the group, but no one should be pressured if he or she feels uncomfortable.

The Intercultural Game. Using the same format as The Gender Game, this activity makes good use of any diverse population your institution may have.

If your class has members of many cultures, you can divide them that way. Or, make use of foreign language classes or English as a Second Language (ESL) classes, and coordinate your activity with another instructor.

In addition to providing a forum for perception checking, you can further interdisciplinary relationships at the same time.

Discussion Questions

What did you find out about the other gender (or about another culture) that you didn’t know before?

Are your perspectives similar to or different from the others you interviewed?

What purpose did perception checking serve in this activity?

How do our perceptions influence communication with others? Give specific examples.

What effect might this activity have on future communication and relationships with people of the

opposite gender (or of another culture)? Suggest specific ways we can improve communication.

The locality rule to exclude testimony on behalf of the plaintiff by medical experts

/in /by

In Zills vs. Brown, both plaintiff and defendants specify numerous issues in their respective briefs, but the conclusive issue, in this case, is whether the trial court misjudged in reversal when it applied the locality rule to exclude testimony on behalf of the plaintiff by medical experts, more particularly the testimony of the plaintiff’s medical expert witness, Dr. John Carpenter, Jr. concerning the standard of treatment administered to Thomas Zills by Dr. Brown.

This is a medical malpractice action seeking damages for the death of Thomas Zills resulting from the negligence of Drs. Brown and Bradley, both of whom are board-certified urologists, for failing to timely diagnose and properly treat Zills’ cancer of the testicle in a timely and proper removal of the diseased testicle followed by radiation therapy.

During the trial of this action, four medical experts testifying on behalf of the plaintiff were prohibited by the trial court from giving their respective opinions as to whether the treatment of Zills’ testicular seminoma administered by Dr. Brown was in accord with the requisite standard of medical care generally adhered to in treating that disease.

The trial court refused to allow Dr. Carpenter to testify to the quality of the treatment administered to Zills by the defendants because Dr. Carpenter could not state he knew: the degree of care, skill, and diligence that was ordinarily possessed and used by physicians and surgeons in the general vicinity or general community of Florence, Alabama, during the period of 1974, 1975 with reference to their treatment of seminoma.

 

It appears that Dr. Carpenter was competent to testify as a medical expert about the treatment administered to Thomas Zills regardless of which rule is applied as to the defendant doctors’ duty of care. Ordinarily, the law requires expert medical testimony as to what is or is not the proper practice, treatment, or procedure, in a medical malpractice case; the lack of such evidence is a lack of proof of negligence and is fatal to a plaintiff’s case. The original purpose of the supposed locality rule was to allow an expert to assist the jury by testifying to the standard of care a “hypothetical” physician, similarly situated, would have exercised.

In ordinary negligence cases, the jurors themselves can determine what a reasonable man would have done, but when they are asked to determine whether a professional person has been negligent or not, they need assistance from other professionals to determine what a reasonable professional would have done, under similar facts and circumstances.  The locality rule was designed to assure a doctor that he would be measured against a doctor similarly situated—no more, no less.

 

By holding that plaintiff did not properly preserve a challenge to Alabama’s locality general neighborhood rule, it was not determined that it could not examine the validity and viability of that rule if a proper challenge to it was presented for review. The plurality’s holding implicitly overrules a long line of Alabama case that have adopted the “same general neighborhood” standard and have interpreted that phrase to mean the city or community in which a doctor practices and the surrounding areas.

The Alabama Supreme Court considered the various rules for the admission of the testimony of medical experts and concluded that the “same general neighborhood” rule rather than the “strict locality” rule applied in Alabama. It was held that the trial court properly applied the locality rule as set forth in the case law of Alabama and codified in the 1975 Code of Alabama and that the trial court properly refused to admit the testimony of Dr. Carpenter and therefore the ruling of the trial court was affirmed.

 

Zills v. Brown, 382 So. 2d 528 (Ala. 1980).
