    [480] Re-Run of Ep 142 Effective teaching of manual skills to physiotherapy students. A Randomized Clinical Trial

    Sometimes health professional education can be embarrassing.  Despite the maturity of the field, there are occasions when a study, such as the one in Jon's paper selection this week, can highlight shared assumptions among clinician educators. So, what is the most effective way to teach a technical skill? The KeyLIME team is here to help you figure it out!  Authors: Rossettini G, Rondoni A, Palese A, Cecchetto S, Vicentini M, Bettale F, Furri L, Testa M. Publication details: Effective teaching of manual skills to physiotherapy students. A Randomized Clinical Trial. Medical Education. 2017. August. [ePub ahead of print]

    [479] Re-Run of Ep 140 Measuring Medical Students' Empathy: Exploring the Underlying Constructs of and Associations Between Two Widely Used Self-Report Instruments in Five Countries.

    Empathy is widely regarded as a critical element of patient care and medical education. The more you have, the greater the patient and provider satisfaction, greater adherence to therapy, greater physician well-being and perceived clinical decision-making, greater physician joy at work. Jason's paper selection looks at "what is 'empathy' in health care, anyway?" and has the co-hosts questioning their own construct of empathy. Authors: Costa P, de Carvalho-Filho MA, Schweller M, Thiemann P, Salgueira A, Benson J, Costa MJ, Quince T. Publication details: Measuring Medical Students' Empathy: Exploring the Underlying Constructs of and Associations Between Two Widely Used Self-Report Instruments in Five Countries.

    [478] Re-Run of Ep 139 Feedback for Learners in Medical Education: What Is Known? A Scoping Review.

    Feedback to learners has always been important in Med Ed and is getting even more air time with the advent of CBME and mastery learning. While there has been a lot of literature on various aspects of feedback, it has not been broadly assessed. This scoping review, chosen by Linda, offers a wide perspective on the literature which may lead to further deeper reviews. Authors: Bing-You R, Hayes V, Varaklis K, Trowbridge R, Kemp H, McKelvy D. Publication details: Feedback for Learners in Medical Education: What Is Known? A Scoping Review. Academic Medicine. 2017 Feb 7. [Epub ahead of print] PubMed Link

    [477] Re-Run of Ep 138 Comparison of Male vs Female Resident Milestone Evaluations by Faculty During Emergency Medicine Residency Training

    Gender bias in the workplace should come as no surprise to KeyLIME-ers.  Yet, many do not realize how pervasive sexism can be in the assessment of trainees in our residency programs. Jon's selection showcases the significant issue of gender bias in the academic environment and the hosts attempt to understand the scope of the problem.  Authors: Dayal A, O’Connor DM, Qadri U, Arora VM.  Publication details: Comparison of Male vs Female Resident Milestone Evaluations by Faculty During Emergency Medicine Residency Training.  JAMA Internal Medicine. 2017. March 6. [ePub ahead of print] PubMed Link

    [476] Re-run of Ep 137 Imperfect practice makes perfect: error management training improves transfer of learning

    As the old adage goes- does ‘practice make perfect’?  Or the not so old saying coming from mastery learning – does ‘perfect practice makes perfect’? The authors of Linda's selected paper - a report on a randomized education trial - want to convince us that ‘imperfect practice makes perfect’.   Authors: Dyre L , Tabor A, Ringstead C, Toldsgaard, MG. Publication details: Imperfect practice makes perfect: error management training improves transfer of learning. Medical Education. 2017 Feb;51(2):196-206. PubMed Link

Authors: Norcini JJ, Boulet JR, Opalek A, Dauphinee WD.  Publication details: Patients of doctors further from medical school graduation have poorer outcomes. Medical Education. 2017. 51(5):480. PubMed Link

    [474] Re-Run of Ep 135 Health Professions Education Scholarship Unit Leaders as Institutional Entrepreneurs

    Linda's article selection asks: if HPESUs (health professions education scholarship units) are defined as “organizational structures within which a group of people is substantively engaged in health professions education scholarship’’ -  does this mean heads of HPESUs act as Institutional Entrepreneurs?  Authors: Varpio L, O'Brien B, Durning S, van der Vleuten C, Gruppen L, Ten Cate O, Humphrey-Murto S, Irby DM, Hamstra SJ, Hu W. Publication details: Health Professions Education Scholarship Unit Leaders as Institutional Entrepreneurs. Academic Medicine. 2017. Jan 24 [ePub ahead of print]. PubMed Link
