A Simulation-Based Workshop to Improve Dermatologists ’ Communication Skills: A Pilot for Continuing Medical Education
ConclusionsParticipants reported that this communication workshop effectively satisfied its learning objectives. Opportunities to practice and improve communication skills as part of continuing medical education will benefit the clinical experience of patients and physicians alike, and the workshop may be formatted to serve physicians of other specialties. The lowest-scoring communication areas identified in this study present an opportunity to develop a tailored curriculum for physician –patient communication in the future.

Learners ’ acceptance of a webinar for continuing medical education
The aim of this study was to evaluate learners ’ acceptance of a webinar for continuing medical education that was instigated by the International Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (IAOMS). A live, interactive webinar on orthognathic surgery was broadcast via the Internet. The learners’ acceptance of the webinar was evaluated us ing a standardized, validated questionnaire (Student Evaluation of Educational Quality, SEEQ). One hundred and fifty-three participants attended the webinar; 55 participants (46 male, nine female) completed the questionnaire.

The relevance and role of homestays in medical education: a scoping study.
CONCLUSIONS: Homestays offer a unique depth of experience that has the potential to enrich the education of participating students, and require further research, particularly in the context of distributed and decentralised training platforms for medical and health sciences students. Future studies should explore the potential for homestays as a pedagogical component of community-based medical curriculum. ABBREVIATIONS: CBME: Community-based medical education.

Fairness: the hidden challenge for competency-based postgraduate medical education programs
AbstractCompetency-based medical education systems allow institutions to individualize teaching practices to meet the needs of diverse learners. Yet, the focus on continuous improvement and individualization of curricula does not exempt programs from treating learners in a  fair manner. When learners fail to meet key competencies and are placed on probation or dismissed from training programs, issues of fairness may form the basis of their legal claims. In a literature search, we found no in-depth examination of fairness. In this paper, we utilize a systems lens to examine fairness within postgraduate medical education ...

Learning support interventions for Year 1 medical students: a review of the literature
ConclusionsThis review has identified the main components of learning support interventions used for Year 1 medical students. Interventions, however, are generally not grounded on empirical assessment that elucidates the nature of the challenges faced by students. Future research should provide empirical understanding of the learning challenges to be addressed.

The remediation challenge: theoretical and methodological insights from a systematic review
Conclusions  Most remediation interventions in medical education focus on improving performance to pass a re‐sit of an examination or assessment and provide no insight into what types of extra support work, or how much extra teaching is critical, in terms of developing learning. More recent studies are generally of better quality. Rigorous approaches to developing and evaluating remediation interventions are required.

Interprofessional education in allied health: a systematic review
ConclusionsEvaluation remains the primary aim within this literature. Few studies use theory, take an inductive approach to understanding the processes behind IPE or include detailed participant descriptions. Therefore, we suggest that IPE research is currently caught in an epistemological struggle, between assumptions underpinning biomedical and health science research, and those underpinning education studies. As part of a systems approach to understanding interprofessional socialisation, we call for researchers to take a realistic approach to evaluation that is inclusive of, and responsive to, contextual factors to expl...

Medical education departments: a study of four medical schools in Sub-Saharan Africa
Conclusions: The establishment of medical education departments in Sub-Saharan Africa is a strategy medical schools can employ to improve the quality of health professions education. The creation of communities of practice such as has been done by the MEPI project is a good way to expand the network of medical education departments in the region enabling the sharing of lessons learned across the continent.
