  Abstract

In the absence of an authoritative, current, and detailed source of information about videos for teaching gerontology and geriatrics, we developed a program to screen and evaluate videos. At our Video Journal Club, multidisciplinary health professionals view a video, complete a written evaluation, discuss its strengths and weaknesses, and provide a critique to be used as the basis of a narrative review. In the process, we offer an opportunity for continuing education and an avenue for exchange across disciplines.

Keywords: Instructional materials, Interdisciplinary study
