The association between medical student research engagement with learning outcomes
The objectives of our study are: (1) to outline the landscape of medical student research engagement in China; (2) to explore the association between medical student research engagement and learning outcomes, and whether this association is different among students with different characteristics. A paper questionnaire was developed, piloted, and administered to medical students at 33 medical schools in China. Research engagement was measured by the times students engaged in research projects while learning outcomes referred to learning outcomes contained in the Standards for Basic Medical Education in China. Chi-square tes...

Identity and uncertainty: art-mediated medical student reflections in a time of transition
This article describes common themes in medical students' reflections on a specific period of transition during a unique moment in history, via qualitative analysis of their narrative responses to visual arts-mediated reflective prompts. The authors used a visual arts-based activity to explore medical students' hopes and concerns as they transitioned to clinical clerkships between the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 academic years at one academic institution. Qualitative analysis using an exploratory constructivist approach revealed that students' reflections often focused on identity within three main themes: the personal self, t...

Positive impact of integrating histology and physiology teaching at a medical school in China
This study assessed the results of the reform by comparing the attitudes and academic achievements of students in the reform curriculum (n = 41) and their traditional curriculum peers (n = 182). An attitude survey was conducted to obtain students' views of their respective histology and physiology instruction. Survey items covered lectures, laboratory teaching, case analyses and small-group case discussions, assessment of students, and overall quality of the courses and instruction. A knowledge test consisting of questions from three sources was given to measure students' mastery of topics that they had learned. Results sh...

Clinician-educators in emerging graduate medical education systems: description, roles and perceptions
Conclusions In the GME systems studied, CEs, regardless of country or programme, report working in environments that value clinical productivity over educational efforts. CEs feel competent and prepared for many aspects of their roles, have positive attitudes towards teaching, and report overall job satisfaction, with most likely to remain in academic medicine. As medical training advances internationally, the impact on and by CEs requires ongoing attention.

A new method for group decision making and its application in medical trainee selection
ConclusionsThe algorithm developed and described here may reduce arbitrariness in processes that require the collaborative creation of a preference list. This method may have wide applicability in medical education and training, and beyond. The present authors’ experience of using this algorithm during the National Resident Matching Program match showed improved perceptions of fairness, ease of use and efficiency.

Prevalence, perceptions, and consequences of substance use in medical students.
CONCLUSIONS: Findings suggest that substance use among medical students in the US is ongoing and associated with consequences in various domains. There is a lack of familiarity regarding school substance-use policies. Although there has been some progress in characterizing medical student alcohol use, less is known about the factors surrounding medical students' use of other substances. Updated, comprehensive studies on the patterns of medical student substance use are needed if we are to make the necessary changes needed to effectively prevent substance-use disorders among medical students and support those who are in nee...

Words matter: Translanguaging in medical communication skills training
AbstractMedical communication across languages is gaining attention as the multilingual character of local, regional, and national populations across the world continues to grow. Effectively communicating with patients involves not only learning medical terminology, but also understanding the community ’s linguistic practices, and gaining the ability to explain health concepts in patient-centered language. Language concordance between physicians and patients improves patient outcomes, but methods to teach communication skills for physicians are usually limited to the majority or official languag e. For example, in U.S. ...

Rewarding journeys: exploring medical students' learning experiences in international electives
Med Educ Online. 2021 Dec;26(1):1913784. doi: 10.1080/10872981.2021.1913784.ABSTRACTInternational electives are recognized as a high-impact practice in clinical education. However, medical students' actual learning experiences during electives have not been explored fully. Specifically, drawing on language management theory, this exploratory case study investigates students' perceived learning outcomes and the managing processes by which they gained benefits from cross-cultural learning experiences in international electives. Written reflective reports in a series of e-portfolios were collected from 43 Japanese medical stu...
