Team-based learning™ (TBL) is an instructional strategy developed in the business school environment early 1990s by Dr Michaelsen who wanted benefits of small group learning within large classes. In 2001, a US federal granting agency awarded funds for educators health sciences to learn about and implement their educational programs; TBL was put forward as one such result it used over 60 international science professional schools. very different from problem-based (PBL) other approaches that...
OBJECTIVE This study was carried out to test the effectiveness of PATHWAYS, a weight loss program designed specifically for urban African-American women, when administered in churches by trained lay facilitators. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Thirty-nine obese women were recruited from three churches. After randomization and collection baseline data on lifestyle practices, subjects experimental group (n = 19) assigned receive 14-week (PATHWAYS) conducted volunteers; control 20) put waiting...
OBJECTIVE—To evaluate the Diabetes Health Disparities Collaborative, an initiative by Bureau of Primary Care to reduce health disparities and improve quality diabetes care in community centers. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—One year before- after trial. Beginning 1998, 19 Midwestern centers undertook a improvement based on model including rapid Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles from continuous field; Chronic Model emphasizing patient self-management, delivery system redesign, decision support, clinical...
We aimed to identify barriers improving care for individuals with diabetes in community health centers. These findings are important because many such patients, as most other practice settings, receive that does not meet evidence-based standards.In 42 Midwestern centers, we surveyed 389 providers and administrators about the they faced delivering care. report on home blood glucose monitoring, HbA1c tests, dilated eye examinations, foot diet, exercise, all of which a subset larger clinical...
OBJECTIVES: This study assessed the quality of diabetes care in community health centers. METHODS: In 55 midwestern centers, we reviewed charts 2865 diabetic adults for American Diabetes Association measures quality. RESULTS: On average, 70% patients each center had measurements glycosylated hemoglobin, 26% dilated eye examinations, 66% diet intervention, and 51% received foot care. The average hemoglobin value per was 8.6%. Practice guidelines were independently associated with higher...
Team-based learning (TBL) has become a more commonly recognized and implemented pedagogical approach in curricula of numerous disciplines. The desire to place autonomy on the student spend less in-class time delivering content resulted complete or partial adoption this style many educational settings.Provide faculty with tools that foster well facilitated interactive TBL environment.We examined published literature area facilitation - specifically environments, explored theories associated...
Background: Heralded as a teaching, assessment and reflective tool, increasingly longitudinal holistic perspective of the educator’s development, medical portfolios (MEP)s are employed to evaluate progress, assess for promotions career switches, used tool means curating educational activities. However, despite its blossoming role, there is significant dissonance in content structure MEPs. As such, systematic scoping review (SSR) proposed identify what known MEPs contents. Methods: Krishna’s...
The purpose of this pilot study was to test the hypothesis that adolescents with type 1 diabetes can learn become better problem solvers in self-care and thereby improve their metabolic control. METHODS Fifty-three aged 13 17 were randomly assigned either a 6-week problem-solving education program or control group (usual care). Al C levels obtained as well assessments solving, frequency behavior, level responsibility, 24-hour behavior recall at baseline 6 months. RESULTS experimental...
The purpose of this pilot study was to test the hypothesis that children can learn become more independent in their own diabetes self management without compromising metabolic control. Twenty four (ages 8 12 years) with insulin- dependent mellitus (IDDM) were matched by age and race, then randomly assigned either a 6-week, education program (experimental) or receive usual care (control). A questionnaire administered parents determine frequency which 35 behaviors performed degree assumed...
To develop medical students' skills in interacting with individuals who have limited health literacy.Described are 2 novel approaches to literacy curriculum design. Efforts at both schools been implemented improve student awareness of literacy, as well specific clear communication and strategies that ensure patient understanding.Preliminary data from one school suggest an increase use behaviors. Curriculum development is ongoing.The ultimate goal these curricula for students the core...
We explored 251 providers' (47% licensed practical nurses, 27% registered 10% physicians, physician assistants, 6% other) perceptions of barriers to effective management hypertension and hyperlipidemia from 72 Midwest community health centers (CHCs). Optimal care for these diseases is difficult in any setting; little known about the specific CHCs face. Community often have a multidisciplinary team that participates patient care. Current models quality improvement chronic require virtually...

FDP consisted twelve 4‐hour sessions. Two hours each session...
PURPOSE this paper describes the development and psychometric properties of Diabetes Problem-Solving Measure for Adolescents (DPSMA). METHODS The DPSMA is a structured, interview-based questionnaire that examines how adolescents with type 1 diabetes solve diabetes-related self-management problems. Seventeen problem vignettes were derived from survey their parents. reviewed finalized by multidisciplinary team experts. A sample 43 adolescents, 13 to 17 years old, diabetes, was used establish...
Faculty development programs have tended to focus on low levels of evaluation such as participant satisfaction rather than assess the actual changes that training has brought about in workplace. This prompted scholars suggest using social network analysis a means provide more rigorous method evaluating impact faculty development. To test feasibility suggestion, we used concepts cohesion year-long fellowship program conducted by Duke-NUS Medical School's Academic Medicine Education Institute...
