EBM, CME and the EMR
Physician organisationsi recognise that searching quality knowledge resources at the point of care is important for continuing medical education (CME).1 However, those physicians inclined to occasionally search for an answer to a clinical question do not have systems such as a CME module to integrate the key tasks of searching for clinical information in their electronic medical record (EMR) and reporting CME outcomes for credit. In regard to the task of searching for information, we acknowledge that some clinical questions remain difficult to answer, while other search tasks have become simpler (table 1). Among barriers t...

Yesterday's Doctors: The Human Aspects of Medical Education in Britain, 1957-93.
This article shows that students often drove the early stages of education reform. Their innovations focused on relationships between doctors and their communities, and often took the form of informal discussions about medical ethics and the social dimensions of primary care. Medical schools began to pursue 'humanistic' education more formally from the 1980s onwards, particularly within the context of general practice curricula and with a focus on individual doctor-patient relationships. Overall from the 1950s to the 1990s there was a broad shift in discussions of the human aspects of medical education: from interest in pa...

Delivering medical education for future healthcare needs: a community-focused challenge.
Authors: Pope L, Dubras L Abstract Medical schools are required to train the workforce needed to care for the population they serve. In the UK, we are expected to produce more graduates choosing to be general practitioners and to equip all graduates with the ability to care for an ageing population with increasingly complex care needs. These doctors need to be effective members of multi-professional teams, possessing generalist skills including an understanding of uncertainty and risk. Curricula where a significant proportion of clinical learning is based in general practice are best placed to address this pedagogi...

Adjusting medical school admission: assessing interpersonal skills using situational judgement tests
Conclusions  Video‐based SJTs as measures of procedural knowledge about interpersonal behaviour show promise as complements to cognitive examination components. The interpersonal skills training received during medical education does not negate the selection of students on the basis of interpersonal skills. Future research is needed to examine the use of SJTs in other cultures and student populations.
