Cognitive learning strategies are that improve a learner's ability to process information more deeply, transfer and apply new situations, result in enhanced better-retained learning.We developed an interactive workshop for national conference of pediatric educators teach five cognitive strategies. The specific were (1) spaced retrieval practice, (2) interleaving, (3) elaboration, (4) generation, (5) reflection. Each strategy was taught using active exercise. We evaluated the effectiveness...

Purpose: Interns enter internship needing to perform many duties expected of a physician. The Association American Medical Colleges (AAMC) has outlined these expectations in the form core entrustable professional activities (EPAs) that all graduating medical students should be able on day one residency without direct supervision.1 However, it is unclear how much supervision new interns actually need when performing EPAs. Furthermore, attending physicians and residents may have different...

Method: present 3-year-old boy ASD and longstanding history food selectivity whose routine was disrupted during COVID-19 pandemic resulting in avoidant/restrictive intake severe undernutrition, who presented profound...

Clinical fellows, those training to become subspecialists in a program certified by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, supervise residents on inpatient subspecialty rotations. Unlike supervising or faculty, there is paucity of literature describing fellows' supervision residents. The aim this study was understand residents' and perception successful fellows rotations inform development curricula support as supervisors.Using grounded theory methodology, authors held...

SUMMARY Background Deliberate practice facilitates skill mastery. We aimed to create a novel resident‐as‐teacher rotation, leveraging deliberate framework with repeated in real‐life teaching settings, feedback from dedicated faculty member coaches. Methods A rotation was designed for 35 Postgraduate Year‐2 ( PGY 2) paediatric residents. To facilitate practice, experiences were observed by coaches and different audiences. Participating residents received pre‐rotation, post‐rotation follow‐up...

Coaching in medical education is increasingly used for trainee development a variety of skills, including improving teaching skills through resident-as-teacher programs. Faculty who serve as coaches commit significant effort to the coaching role, often without protected time or support. Little known about faculty motivations participate programs how experience affects faculty. This study explored coaches' rotation and impacts they experienced result their participation.In this qualitative...

OBJECTIVES: A large portion of residency education occurs in inpatient teaching services without widely accepted consensus regarding the essential components that constitute a service. We sought to generate around this topic, with goal developing criteria programs can be used when creating, redesigning, or evaluating services. METHODS: list potential was developed from literature search, interviews, and focus groups. Eighteen pediatric medical experts participated modified Delphi method,...

Resident feedback is generally elicited from attending physicians, although nurses can also provide on distinct domains. Physicians may be hesitant to accept if they perceive that are being asked about areas outside their expertise. Understanding specific resident behaviors best suited assess critical successful implementation of residents. To understand uniquely positioned the perspectives both and We performed a qualitative study using thematic analysis 5 focus groups with 20 residents 17...

Purpose Competency-based medical education relies on repeated longitudinal assessments of learners. Frequent attending physician transitions within clinical rotations present a significant barrier to the educational continuity required in competency-based education. Learner handoffs (LHs), or transfer information regarding learners team among faculty supervisors, is potential solution. Although literature available leader and perspectives LHs, have been less well described. Method This...

There is overlap in the clinical presentations of superficial skin infections (eg, cellulitis) and deeper osteomyelitis). Inflammatory markers are frequently obtained hospitalized patients with cellulitis. However, it unknown whether inflammatory discriminate between infections.We performed a retrospective review children erythema on diagnoses cellulitis, bursitis, myositis, osteomyelitis, and/or tenosynovitis. Patients were grouped into infection (cellulitis bursitis) (myositis,...
