Jonathan Sherbino may be an emergency physician, but he can still be surprised.
He was astonished when he learned this week that he has won a 3M National Teaching Fellowship award for his ground-breaking work as a medical educator.
The 3M National Teaching Fellowship is Canada’s most prestigious recognition of excellence in educational leadership and teaching at the post-secondary level, and Sherbino is one of 10 national fellowships for 2021.
“It’s something of a shock honestly, and it reminds you that people enter into teaching with a desire to influence learners, build a relationship with them and watch them progress,” said Sherbino, a professor of medicine and assistant dean at the McMaster Education Research, Innovation and Theory (MERIT) program.
