Dr. Etienne C么t茅 teaches Veterinary Cardiology at the 秀色短视频's Atlantic Veterinary College, but more than that: as he says, he is always conscious of the essential 'unspoken curriculum of compassion and communication with colleagues, staff, and an animal's human family' that is needed to form truly good health care providers. For Dr. C么t茅, teaching veterinary medicine has as much to do with training good communicators and compassionate practitioners as it does with the science of animal physiology. One of Canada's foremost experts in Veterinary Cardiac Medicine, Etienne is deeply concerned to connect his classroom to the world. He operates by analogy, modeling in his attentive and respectful attitude to his students the kind of behavior he hopes these future veterinarians will learn. Three hundred and fifty-eight new veterinarians - and their patients - are the better for it.

Most impressive is the stable of innovative strategies he has adapted or invented to engage his students and help them understand the material. From the post-it note version of the Stop/Start/Continue midterm check-in to 'Cardiology Jeopardy,' 'Cardiology Karaoke,' and a board game for Board Exam preparations, he is always searching for ways to help his students -no matter what their learning styles - master the very difficult and important material he is responsible for teaching. So when he was bothered by the disconnect for third-year students between their classroom learning and real veterinary practice, he adapted a format from one of his own professors to offer biweekly 'Cardiac Grand Rounds.' Now attended by crowds of faculty as well as enthusiastic students, the sessions bring these future veterinarians into the smell of hay and horses for a real experience of disease recognition and diagnosis. His award-winning textbook, Clinical Veterinary Advisor: Dogs and Cats, a record-setting best seller at a recent North American Veterinary Conference, ensures that his influence extends beyond the 秀色短视频 campus.

Dr. C么t茅 is the recipient of the Pfizer-Carl J. Norden Distinguished Teaching Award, the Merial Award for Excellence in Clinical Teaching, and the Janet Pottie Murray Award for Educational Leadership. 秀色短视频 is very proud that his dedication and scholarly approach to the classroom have been recognized with the AAU Distinguished Teaching Award.
