A fresh perspective on medical education: the lens of the arts
ConclusionsThe effectiveness of the arts cannot be measured by yardsticks that have been set for judging technical proficiency or short‐term impact. The possible outcomes of embracing the arts in medical education include an enriched view of lifelong learning and professional development, the potential to critique prevailing approaches to medical practice, and the revisualisation of medicine as a succession of performances. These open up the broader social aspects of medical practice to scrutiny and offer new and distinctive ways of exploring professional knowledge and identity.

What do we know about coaching in medical education? A literature review
ConclusionsThere is weak‐ to medium‐strength evidence to support coaching as a method of improving doctor well‐being and enhancing non‐technical skills, although the evidence base is limited as a whole. This review identifies strong evidence to support coaching as a method to improve technical skills. There is great scope for further studies investigating the power of coaching in medical students and doctors.

Ultrasound in undergraduate medical education: a systematic and critical review
ConclusionsOur analysis has shown that the frequently repeated rationales for the integration of ultrasound in UME are not supported by a sufficient base of empirical research. The repetition of these dominant discursive rationales in academic publications legitimises them and may preclude further primary research. As the value of clinical ultrasound use by medical students remains unproven, educators must consider whether the associated financial and temporal costs are justified or whether more research is required.

Do sequentially-presented answer options prevent the use of testwiseness cues on continuing medical education tests?
Abstract Testwiseness—that is, the ability to find subtle cues towards the solution by the simultaneous comparison of the available answer options—threatens the validity of multiple-choice (MC) tests. Discrete-option multiple-choice (DOMC) has recently been proposed as a computerized alternative testing format for MC tests, and presumably allows for a better control of testwiseness. It is based on a sequential rather than simultaneous presentation of answer options. The test taker has to decide on the correctness of one option after another, until the item has been answered either correctly or incorrectly. Te...

Same‐level peer‐assisted learning in medical clinical placements: a narrative systematic review
ConclusionMany student‐related benefits of PAL were identified. PAL contributes to the development of crucial skills required for a doctor in the workplace. Vertical integration of learning and teaching skills across the curriculum and tools such as feedback checklists may be required for successful PAL in the clinical environment. Benefits for patients and educators were poorly characterised within the included studies. Future work should evaluate the use of PAL with regards to student, clinician educator and patient outcomes.

Revolutionizing Medical Education: Can ChatGPT Boost Subjective Learning and Expression?
AbstractChatGPT is an AI tool that can be used to enhance medical education by helping students develop subjective learning and expression skills. These skills are critical in clinical practice, but the current medical education system is heavily focused on objective assessments, such as Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs). Students from non-English speaking backgrounds can particularly struggle with expressing themselves in English, which is the primary language of instruction in many medical schools worldwide. ChatGPT can provide additional language support for these students to help them develop their language skills and c...
