Teaching and Learning in Health Science Schools: A Heavy Learning and Workload Context

Curriculum management in health science schools cannot focus solely on academic content delivery. Many readers may have encountered students or faculty facing challenges in their studies or work, leading to incomplete education or burnout. Often, these issues stem not from academic shortcomings but from psychological problems, stress, mental health disorders, or burnout. Therefore, health science schools must prioritize the well-being of students, educators, and staff, addressing both physical and mental health concerns.

In this edition of the journal, the team has compiled topics related to “Well-being in Medical Schools” as the central theme. The aim is to provide guidance on developing systems that foster physical and mental well-being and create a supportive learning environment in medical schools. This effort seeks to ensure happiness and satisfaction for everyone involved in learning and working in medical schools.
