Many university students are becoming involved in mentoring programs, yet few studies describe the impact of on mentor. Additionally, many report that graduating from college not prepared to enter workforce terms key career skills and/or content knowledge. Herein, we examine our program, NE STEM 4U (Nebraska Science, Technology, Engineering and Math for You), which undergraduate (UG) mentors engage K-8 youth after-school experiments. The UGs reflected upon their experiences using...
The Nebraska Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics 4U (NE STEM 4U) program was initiated at the University of Omaha (UNO) in 2013. NE is a student-run, faculty-led facilitating problem-based learning (PBL) sessions science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM) for socioeconomically disadvantaged kindergarten through grade 8 (K-8) students. PBL are provided throughout academic year twice-weekly, after-school, informal education program. instructional material after school...
Phenomenon: Because of its importance in residency selection, the United States Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 occupies a critical position medical education, stimulating national debate about appropriate score use, equitable selection criteria, and goals undergraduate education. Yet, student perspectives on these issues their implications for engagement with health systems science-related curricular content are relatively underexplored. Approach: We conducted an online survey students...
In this qualitative study, we assessed the impact of NE STEM 4U intervention on elementary school youth in terms excitement, curiosity, and concepts. The incorporates a problem-based learning theoretical framework an after-school time, weekly or twice-weekly intervention. We student performance over two academic years participation using Dimensions Success observational tool. Ultimately, link mentor-led program with increases inquiry, concept gains. Taken together, these findings support...
This phenomenological study involves a unique, longitudinal assessment of the lived experiences former undergraduate mentors (n=7) in light their current (i.e., career or advanced schooling). The objective is to engage in-depth probing representative number participants. Specifically, we followed up with graduates Nebraska STEM 4U (NE 4U) intervention 3 years post-program, overall goal describing mentors’ using lens experiences. type perspective mentoring greatly lacking literature. At time...

Information regarding was collected from Otomatch.com verified via websites. also 2018 NIH rank 2020 US News & World Report schools departments. T tests chi-square analyses were performed. Top 40 top home institution separately associated with more publications higher rates...
The development of critical thinking skills in recent college graduates is keenly requested by employers year after year. Moreover, improving these can help students to better question and analyze data. Consequently, we aimed implement a training program that would add the undergraduate students: Nebraska Science, Technology, Engineering, Math 4U (NE STEM 4U). In this program, undergraduates provide outreach, mentoring, science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM) education K-8...
The overall purpose of this multifocused study was to explore how participation in genuine mentored scientific research experiences impacts in-service science teachers and the knowledge skills needed for their own teaching. resulted from a partnership between University Nebraska at Omaha Public School District. This Teacher-Researcher Partnership Program facilitated opportunities inquiry, content, interaction with laboratory instrumentation technologies, critical discussion literature,...
We surveyed Orthopaedic Surgery Residency (OSR) programs to determine international opportunities by the academic institutional region within United States, location of experience, duration, residency program year (PGY), funding source, and resident participation date.We emailed a survey all OSR in States inquire about global their programs. Further contact was made through an additional e-mail up three telephone calls. Data were analyzed using descriptive chi-square statistics. This study...
Competent physicians must be able to self-assess skill level; however, previous studies suggest that medical trainees may not accurately self-assess. We utilized Pathology Milestones (PM) data determine whether there were discrepancies in self- versus Clinical Competency Committee (CCC) ratings by sex, program year (PGY), time of evaluation, and question category (Patient Care, Medical Knowledge, Systems-Based Practice [SBP], Practice-Based Learning Improvement [PBL], Professionalism [PRO],...
During the COVID-19 pandemic, academic health centers suspended clinical clerkships for students. A need emerged innovative virtual curricula to continue fostering professional competencies. In March 2020, a multidisciplinary team from University of Nebraska Medical Center had 2 weeks create course on impact infectious diseases that addressed pandemic in real time upper-level medical and physician assistant Content addressing social determinants health, ethics, population service learning,...
Purpose: Prior studies suggest a role for promoting recognition of generational differences as part workplace ethics. To our knowledge, there is no published comprehensive analysis demonstrating how commonly or by what methods intergenerational dynamics are taught structured coursework in medical school curricula. address this gap, we carried out survey curriculum leaders US schools to assess the current practices and attitudes toward content related coursework. Methods: A consisting 23...
Background: The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) common and specialty program requirements stipulate that residents/fellows participate in scholarly activities. ACGME provides a reporting template tool activity to be utilized by all specialties evaluation annually. In this study, we aimed to: 1) Conduct content analysis of the ACGME-accredited training programs identify commonalities variations, 2) Assess alignment between provided ACGME.

Common difficulties in teaching introductory courses such as general psychology are breadth of content and differing student teacher expectations. The use psychological concepts or principles organising factors is recommended to address these problems. Psychological for each area were identified presented two groups students. Course was organised around principles, along with class exercises tests that fostered their application. When compared other by the text's field survey approach,...
Background: Mitigating resident burnout is a high priority for medical centers. Monitoring residents’ overall perceptions of their training environments could be reliable indicator potential future burnout. Furthermore, recent national studies suggest procedural specialties have higher rate and lower satisfaction than non-procedural specialties. In the current study, we utilized institutional data from Accreditation Council Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) survey to better understand...
