Preceptor Philosophy Synthesis

This episode gives a summary and synthesis of the Preceptor Philosophies you wrote (in a deidentified way). In general the group has a good intuitive understanding of Mind, Brain, and Education Science concepts. However, variations in practice may be counterproductive for orientees. A suggested next step is to verify ideal preceptor practice within the group and create a pacing guide for preceptors so that the group style is more cohesive.

Neuromyths Busted: Essential Neuroscience for Preceptors

Week 6: Neuromyth Review summarizes common misunderstandings about how the brain learns and highlights evidence-based principles that matter for precepting. Key points include the roles of sleep, neuroplasticity, and distributed memory networks, and why the 10% brain and left/right brain myths are misleading. The episode explains how memory is built and lost, why rehearsal, spaced retrieval, and reflection (metacognition) improve learning, and why repeated check-ins and low-stakes testing help orientees retain skills. Practical takeaways stress that forgetting is normal, practice plus reflection builds expertise, and Universal Design for Learning is a better teaching approach than catering to learning styles. Links to the full Betz et al. 2019 report are provided for further reading.

Mastering the 1-Minute Preceptor: Five Micro-Skills for Clinical Teaching

Preceptor Study Week 6 covers effective questioning strategies and introduces the One-Minute Preceptor (OMP) model. The episode explains types of questions, emphasizes guiding learners to reason rather than giving answers, and walks through the five OMP micro-skills: get a commitment, probe for understanding, teach general rules, reinforce what was done right, and correct errors. A clinical example involving hemodynamics demonstrates the approach, and listeners are directed to additional resources and follow-up sessions.

Using Questions to Develop Critical Thinking (Unit 2)

This episode explains how different types of questions and low-stakes quizzes can improve learning during clinical orientation. It covers the testing effect and recommends unit-based, low-stakes retrieval practice to standardize learning and reduce preceptor burden. It reviews Socratic questioning, open vs closed questions, and the risks of "hot seat" questioning—emphasizing psychological safety and knowing when to ask versus when to tell. Socratic methods build metacognition only when learners have enough baseline knowledge. Key takeaways: use low-stakes quizzes, combine closed and open questions to assess knowledge and reasoning, avoid high-stress questioning, and be transparent about why you ask questions. The next session introduces the one-minute preceptor model.

Application of Cognitive Load Theory in Precepting (Unit 2)

In this episode we review cognitive load theory and share three practical strategies for preceptors: structure information and control the environment to avoid distractions, use worked examples (checklists, flow sheets, visuals) to model tasks, and scaffold responsibilities so learners take on complexity gradually. These simple changes reduce unnecessary mental effort, free working memory for core learning, and make orientation more effective and efficient.

Cognitive Load Theory for Preceptors (Unit 2)

This episode introduces Cognitive Load Theory and explains how working memory, long-term memory, intrinsic load, and extraneous load affect learning in the preceptor-orientee relationship. It highlights why new information sometimes doesn’t stick and how preceptors can reduce unnecessary load to improve knowledge transfer. Next week’s episode will present specific, practical strategies preceptors can use at the bedside to optimize cognitive load and support effective learning.

Types of Memory (Unit 2)

This episode explains the major types of memory—sensory, short-term, working, and long-term (explicit and implicit)—and how they operate during clinical shifts. Using practical examples from orientation, it explores why orientees get overwhelmed, how working memory limits affect performance, and how procedural and emotional memory influence learning and confidence. The episode also previews a follow-up on cognitive load theory and offers strategies preceptors can use to reduce overload and improve retention.
