Development and Implementation of an International Virtual Didactic Series for Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Graduate Medical Education During COVID-19
Am J Phys Med Rehabil. 2022 Feb 1;101(2):160-163. doi: 10.1097/PHM.0000000000001926.ABSTRACTCoronavirus disease of 2019 presented significant challenges to residency and fellowship programs. Didactic lectures were particularly affected as redeployment of faculty and trainees, limitations on in-person gathering, and other barriers limited opportunities for educational engagement. We sought to develop an online didactic series to address this gap in graduate medical education.Lecturers were recruited via convenience sample and from previous Association of Academic Physiatrists presenters from across the United States and Can...

Leadership Training in Graduate Medical Education: Time for a Requirement?
CONCLUSIONS: This pilot project supports the premise that leadership training should be integrated into GME. Initial results suggest training can improve leadership skills and inspire trainees to seek additional leadership education. Moreover, much like the published literature, residents believe they should learn about leadership during residency. While more effort is needed to determine the best approach to deliver and evaluate this content, it appears even small interventions can make a difference. Next steps for this program include developing assessment tools for observation of leadership behaviors during routine GME ...

Efficacy of an Intensive 2-week Musculoskeletal Anatomy Course in a Medical Education Setting
Ann Anat. 2021 Jul 12:151802. doi: 10.1016/j.aanat.2021.151802. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThere is little consistency in student contact hours and teaching activities used in medical curriculums across North America, and controversy exists regarding the most efficient or effective way to teach musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy in medical school. The purpose of this investigation was to retrospectively examine academic performance and levels of course satisfaction among first year medical students who had completed an intensive 2-week MSK anatomy course during the pre-clerkship portion of their Association of Faculties of M...

Exploring rural medical education: a study of Canadian key informants
CONCLUSION: The finding of this study suggests that preparing students for rural practice requires a multifaceted approach. Specifically, using certain educational strategies, pre-selecting or developing certain characteristics in students, and helping students develop relationships that attach them to a community or support working in a rural community are warranted.PMID:35585660 | DOI:10.22605/RRH7061

The Benefits and Challenges of Involving Adolescents in Medical Education: A Qualitative Study
Conclusions While many of the reported benefits and challenges correspond with those featured in the literature on adult patient involvement in medical education, our findings underscore the distinctive benefits and challenges that medical educators may experience in designing and implementing educational initiatives that involve adolescents. Through the future design and implementation of educational initiatives, it is important to further explore the benefits and challenges of such adolescent involvement, as we know that adolescents can be valuable contributors to medical education.

Curricular Reform in Pharmacy Education Through the Lens of the Flexner Report of 1910.
Abstract Abraham Flexner's 1910 report on medical education in the United States (US) and Canada propelled medical training forward into a contemporary renaissance. The report heralded many seismic changes that still resonate within medical and health professions education throughout the US. Today several factors are accelerating curricular reform within pharmacy education, including but not limited to accreditation standards, technologic advances, and student diversity. Despite the fact that Flexner's report is now over a century old, many of his observations and recommendations regarding education are as pertine...

Choosing Our Own Pathway to Competency-Based Undergraduate Medical Education
After many years in the making, an increasing number of postgraduate medical education (PGME) training programs in North America are now adopting a competency-based medical education (CBME) framework based on entrustable professional activities (EPAs) that, in turn, encompass a larger number of competencies and training milestones. Following the lead of PGME, CBME is now being incorporated into undergraduate medical education (UME) in an attempt to improve integration across the medical education continuum and to facilitate a smooth transition from clerkship to residency by ensuring that all graduates are ready for indirec...

Accreditation Improves Quality of Oncology Education in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Perspectives of African Oncologists
AbstractThe purpose of this study is to understand the perspectives of African Oncologists on the role of accreditation and on global standards. We developed a survey that addressed African oncologists ’ opinions on the role of accreditation. The survey also included 187 standards from World Federation of Medical Education Postgraduate medical education (PGME) standards, American Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-I standards for hematology/oncology, and the Royal College of Physician and Surgeons of Canada Medical Oncology standards. A 3-point scale was employed for each standard: 1 = not important, 2 = impor...

Technologies of Exposure: Videoconferenced Distributed Medical Education as a Sociomaterial Practice
Conclusions This analysis challenges the assumption that videoconferencing merely extends the bricks-and-mortar classroom. The authors discuss practical implications and recommend more critical consideration of the ways videoconferencing shifts the terrain of medical education. These findings point to a need for more critically oriented research exploring the ways DME technologies transform medical education, in both intended and unintended ways.
