Abstract

This paper discusses preliminary findings of a study exploring the pedagogical functions of pop culture. We use Grey’s Anatomy and Scrubs to explore cultural portrayals of and messages about work-related learning with undergraduate medical and nursing students. Thematically, our analysis emphasizes learning about identity, ethics and pedagogy.

Keywords: Culture as pedagogy, Work-related learning, Identity, Ethics
