- Education
Hussein and I debrief this year’s AMEE conference held in Glasgow - Hussein’s first AMEE in-person attendance - and how our preconceptions of Glasgow as a city couldn’t have been more wrong!
The Association for Medical Education, Europe annual conference is one of the largest medical education conferences in the world and has expanded to cover education in several fields of healthcare all around the world. You can view the programme here and abstracts here.
We explore the main theme of the conference: ‘Inclusive Learning Environments to Transform the Future’ as well as the importance for space and time to be able to think more deeply about some of the concepts in education. Between us we went to sessions on inclusivity, simulation (2Z), educator reputation management/branding (7R), gamification/escape rooms (10B), cognitive science insights when teaching skills (4U), evidenced based teaching (5B), faculty development, challenging conversations (9R) and active bystander training (6J2).
We talk about the role of challenge/debate when advocating new approaches or ideas and the need to move beyond learner reaction (i.e. did they like it?) when measuring the impact of interventions. We reflect on the disappointment that there weren’t many sessions on AI in education - perhaps it’s too early?
Hussein ends by describing his first experience of the AMEE ‘Fringe’ and considers his submission form next year … watch this space!
Overall we came away with lots of ideas to try and incorporate into our work. We hope you find something of interest - maybe consider a submission at next year’s AMEE in Basel, Switzerland (abstract invitation normally in February)!
