War games: using an online game to teach medical students about survival during conflict ‘When my survival instincts kick in, what am I truly capable of in times of conflict?’ #MedEd#HumanRights
T1 #meded In terms of fellows, we use them as teaching extensions of the attendings. Our fellows have done formal lectures, led a workshop, and mentored resident’s preparing presentions
#meded T1 we have a new curriculum and are kicking around the idea of incorporating them into the small groups. Problem is there are way more of them, then us! But it would be fun
All of it. Interviewing, physical exam, H&P review, oral presentation, EBM, clinical correlations in basic science courses, professionalism/ethics. #meded
Q: What happens when you combine two brilliant @VUSM MD/PhD students & a strong desire to solve clinician frustration with the #EMR?
A: A new health informatics company that uses #AI to replace scribes.
Well done, @Vote_ForPedro & @ravivatreya!

T1 #meded On subinternships they do quite a bit; however, in some of the more clinically oriented rotations it's not been done quite as well. I wonder if it is different depending on the discipline?
Think it depends what you mean by “formal.” Our subinterns work in intern capacity with direct senior resident supervision & teaching. Just like interns. #meded
#meded T2 I think in medicine most residents on subspecialty electives probably defer a lot of teaching students to a fellow. Might be different in surgery or ob
T2 #meded This is an excellent question. We give them a brief orientation before July 1 then turn them loose to teach. Is that sufficient? Should we be doing more before they can teach students in clinical settings?
I was told- here’s your student. Go teach 😆 RT @Alliance4ClinEd: T2 #meded How do we train residents to be teachers? When do we know they are ready to teach? https://t.co/Tl0myZSzfA

It depends. I think some fellows teach to the resident level. Good senior residents will “repackage” for students. There’s loads a good resident can teach students on a subspecialty service. #meded

Agree! Usually ok. In July, new clerkship students are VERY green. Loads of low-hanging fruit to teach/learn. And hopefully teaching is a team activity in #meded

#meded T2 Oh, I had no idea what I was doing. Just about anything would have helped! Our IM residents due get some in the transition to resident retreat. But smaller, more frequent instruction would be my ideal

#meded Since we are moving to competency based education....shouldn't there be some baseline standards for being a medical educator? @MedEdChat@Alliance4ClinEd
Every ACGME residency program is required to have a residents as teachers program. Ours starts at orientation with early intern year sessions on teaching in the first few months. #meded
#meded I think it varies. If a resident has matched into that field for a fellowship, he/she may try out some teaching with the students. Ex: teaching ekg reading if you’re going into Cards

T2 #meded Peds has that as well, but we have never really done anything locally to determine if the residents are truly prepared to teach. We just assume a lecture once a month will do the trick. Do you do anything different?

T3 #meded About the only way we can tell is through student evaluations.....but sometimes that is more about likability and not teaching. I would love to hear what others are doing.
Agreed. But I hope med residents not going in to cards can teach ecg. Not going in to GI can teach about upper GI bleeding. Etc. and if too complex, admit it & learn together. #meded

T3 #meded This is me being obnoxious....but simply because someone is an expert doesn't necessarily equate to being a good teacher. We've all experienced that.

We have done some OSTEs in the past. But even with those, it’s not feasible to say residents can’t teach on most services. Get loads of feedback from students & team teaching activities w attending supervision. Variable by faculty tho. #meded
Coming late to the discussion- Residents = near-peer teachers. Pros and cons to this. Bottom line is that we need to partner w/ residents in teaching students and plan out who will do what when #teaching in clinical environments. #meded
#meded This has been a great conversation that I think raises more questions than we've gotten answers. Although residents are required training for teaching, what quality metrics do we apply to their teaching? @MedEdChat@JanetRiddleDME
I don't buy into the idea of a RAT program that does some training and then just turns residents loose; we need to mentor them as teachers longitudinally. That's what we would do if they were faculty. #meded
