MANUSCRIPT: Context dependent memory in two learning environments: the tutorial room and the operating theatre

BACKGROUND: Psychologists have previously demonstrated that information recall is context dependent. However, how this influences the way we deliver medical education is unclear. This study aimed to determine if changing the recall context from the learning context affects the ability of medical students to recall information. METHODS: Using a free recall experimental model,

ABSTRACT: Effect of a Performance Improvement CME Activity on Management of Patients With Diabetes.

INTRODUCTION: Primary care in the United States faces unprecedented challenges from an aging population and the accompanying prevalence of chronic disease. In response, continuing medical education (CME) initiatives have begun to adopt the principles of performance improvement (PI) into their design, although currently there is a dearth of evidence from national

MANUSCRIPT: Summative assessments are more powerful drivers of student learning than resource intensive teaching formats

BACKGROUND: Electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation is a core clinical skill that needs to be acquired during undergraduate medical education. Intensive teaching is generally assumed to produce more favorable learning outcomes, but recent research suggests that examinations are more powerful drivers of student learning than instructional format. This study assessed the differential contribution

ABSTRACT: Cost analyses approaches in medical education: there are no simple solutions

CONTEXT: Medical education is expensive. Although we have made progress in working out 'what works' in medical education, there are few data on whether medical education offers value relative to cost. Research into cost and value in medical education is beset by problems. One of the major problems is the lack

MANUSCRIPT: Teaching, Learning, Complexity and Health Professions Education

The purpose of this paper is to disturb the way we think about teaching and learning and to offer a view of health professions education from the perspective of complexity thinking. To discuss complexity and the profound shift it makes with current thinking it is helpful to recall that prior to the 16th century it

MANUSCRIPT: Team-based learning for psychiatry residents: a mixed methods study

Background Team-based learning (TBL) is an effective teaching method for medical students. It improves knowledge acquisition and has benefits regarding learner engagement and teamwork skills. In medical education it is predominately used with undergraduates but has potential benefits for training clinicians. The aims of this study were to examine the impact

MANUSCRIPT: Natural language processing: algorithms and tools to extract computable information from EHRs and from the biomedical literature

The increasing adoption of electronic health records EHRs and the corresponding interest in using these data for quality improvement and research have made it clear that the interpretation of narrative text contained in the records is a critical step. The biomedical literature is another important information source that can benefit

RESOURCE: Bullet points don’t work

At last, we have some scientifically rigorous evidence to show that slides full of bullet-points don’t work. The research is the work of Chris Atherton, a cognitive psychologist. Chris recently delivered a presentation at the Technical Communication UK Conference and has put up her slides on slideshare. There’s been a tremendous

ABSTRACT: Collaborative networks for both improvement and research

Moving significant therapeutic discoveries beyond early biomedical translation or T1 science and into practice involves: (1) T2 science, identifying "the right treatment for the right patient in the right way at the right time" (eg, patient-centered outcomes research) and tools to implement this knowledge (eg, guidelines, registries); and (2) T3

ABSTRACT: A crowdsourcing model for creating preclinical medical education study tools.

During their preclinical course work, medical students must memorize and recall substantial amounts of information. Recent trends in medical education emphasize collaboration through team-based learning. In the technology world, the trend toward collaboration has been characterized by the crowdsourcing movement. In 2011, the authors developed an innovative approach to team-based
