Imagination & Healthcare

Greetings! Check out Dr. David Hindin’s new YouTube Series on Why Your Doctor Should Daydream. I’ve shared above the recent episode on Imagination, Design, and the Future of Healthcare featuring ER Physician, Dr. Bon Ku, and his Health Design Lab at Jefferson University. What a wonderful space they’ve created to support physicians’ desire to further explore and tinker with their ideas as well as solve the challenges they face. Innovation in medical education! Love it!

Cheers!

Teaching Procedural Skills

Greetings Everyone!

Hope you are well! Our UBC Curriculum Committee recently engaged in a discussion on procedural skills, their learning objectives, and the evaluation of Residents’ performance. I’d like to share these resources that may support you in further developing your pedagogical framework as well as provide you with an assessment template:

We also have our last Faculty Development Breakfast (note time and location change!!) scheduled for:
Monday, December 4 from 7:30-9:00 a.m.
Location: Baker 1 ARHCC
Performance Assessment: This session focuses on pulling together assessment data collected on a learner to complete a summative assessment that denotes achievement to date and also provides effective narrative feedback for future development.
Warmly,
