TL;DR
Students learn oral presentation by trial and error rather than through teaching of an explicit rhetorical model, which may delay development of effective communication skills and result in acquisition of unintended professional values.
Abstract
Students learn oral presentation by trial and error rather than through teaching of an explicit rhetorical model. This may delay development of effective communication skills and result in acquisition of unintended professional values. Teaching and learning of oral presentation skills may be improved by emphasizing that context determines content and by making explicit the tacit rules of presentation.

The preceptors' general approach to correcting interns was consistent with pedagogic norms favoring discovery learning and with societal norms favoring egalitarianism and respect for individuals, however, this approach may not be free of problems, and raises questions regarding the effects such strategies have upon the interns' capacity for accurate self-assessment.
