Have you ever given a lecture to a group of adult learners? If so, you may have noticed their eyes losing focus and phones appearing as you moved through your session. This is because the traditional lecture format lacks engagement and has limited effectiveness compared to active learning strategies. Educators who move away from the traditional lecture format and embrace evidence-based active learning practices effectively engage learners and drive deeper learning. Such an educator, serving as facilitator,

Peer instruction is an active learning technique designed to identify learning needs through problem solving and formative feedback. This supports deeper understanding of complex content and encourages higher-order thinking. Peer instruction also helps address deficiencies in conceptual understanding that occur as a result of passive learning experiences. Peer instruction allows students to be more actively engaged in their learning, as it supports self-assessment to determine if concepts are understood.

Have you ever been excited to learn about a particular topic, only to attend the session and find yourself disappointed? Perhaps the material was overwhelming or lacked alignment with the outlined learning outcomes. As with many aspects of medical education, the details matter. Curriculum design is a complex process that involves tasks related to design, implementation, assessment, and evaluation and optimization of academic programs. An important component of curriculum development is curriculum

Mashup Score: 10https://www.slu.edu | Reducing Bias in Trainee Assessment - 8 month(s) ago
Humans process enormous amounts of information per second, which is too much for us to intentionally process every single item. That is why we unintentionally process the vast majority of information using our intuition and instinct, known as System 1 processing. We deliberately process only a limited portion of information through our rational thinking, known as System 2 processing. When we process using intuition and instinct, we utilize our brain “shortcut” where implicit bias can play a role. Certainly

Formative feedback in medical education involves observing the trainee’s performance within a certain domain and comparing it against an expected standard. Formative feedback should be clear, specific, timely, actionable, and based on observed activity or behaviors. In undergraduate medical education, the 13 AAMC core entrustable professional activities (Core EPAs) are one example of a structure for designing medical education curricula, providing formative feedback and creating expectations for trainees.

Imagine the following: You teach anatomy and your learners are rapidly approaching their first exam. One of your learners waits until the last few days before the exam to start studying. Once she starts, she only spends an hour or two each day reviewing, and primarily reviews from the PowerPoint slides rather than going into the laboratory. When she visits the laboratory, she brings a list of structures to identify and checks them off one by one as she studies a dissection prepared by teaching assistants.
