10. Adult Learning Principles Adult learners: Adult learners: –Are goal-oriented (Why, What and How) –Are autonomous and self-directing –Have preexisting resources (life experiences) Make it relevant, practical & contextual (problem solving) Make it relevant, practical & contextual (problem solving) Be respectful (safe learning environment) Be respectful (safe learning environment) Motivate and reinforce Motivate and reinforce

11. Agenda - 2 Core Core –Fundamental principles of education –Teaching Opportunities –Assessment/Evaluation/Feedback

12. “Teachable Moments” Not just a ‘lecture’ Modeling professional behavior Daily opportunities – –Work rounds – –Procedures – –Ambulatory settings Pick your targets (can’t do it all) Be brief (“teaching on the fly”)

13. What type of teaching useful? A. Procedures, Case Management, 5-min talks, Bedside Teaching B. Physical Diagnosis Rounds C. Lectures, PBL, Simulated Cases, Socratic questioning D. MS I & MS II courses *Students value case-based & bedside teaching over lectures.

14. “The One Minute Preceptor” 1. Get a commitment 2. Probe for supporting evidence 3. Teach general rules and think out loud 4. Tell your learner what he or she did right 5. Correct the learner’s mistakes Irby, 1997 The One-Minute Preceptor: Microskills for Clinical Teaching

16. SCENARIO #1 Answer the following questions 1. How can you use adult learning principles to improve the educational experience? 2. Identify the teachable moments and critique what you saw

17. Comments? 1. 2. 3. 4.

18. 1 Minute Preceptor: 1 Get a commitment – –Ask learner to articulate his/her own diagnosis or plan – –Get him/her to commit to an answer (even if wrong)

19. One Minute Preceptor 2 Probe for supporting evidence – –Evaluate the learner’s knowledge/reasoning – –Ask probing questions Ask why he/she thinks so Ask “what if …” scenarios Broader / deeper than learner’s answer

20. One Minute Preceptor: 3 Teach general rules Generalize from the case at hand Give the learner a pearl /take home point Point out how this case is same or different from the general rules

21. Microskills of Teaching: 4 Reinforce what was done well Provide positive feedback “Catch them doing something right”

22. One Minute Preceptor: 5 Correct errors Provide constructive corrections and feedback Specific Targeted Recommendations for improvement

23. The One Minute Preceptor Choose a single teachable point per encounter – –Most generalizable (most useful) – –Most important (don’t miss the life threatening diagnosis) – –Targeted at learner’s area of weakness – –Building on previous teachable point – –Can be diagnosis, management, skill etc

24. Agenda Core Core –Fundamental principles of education –Teaching Opportunities –Assessment/Evaluation/Feedback

26. Feedback vs. Evaluation Immediate Immediate Informal Informal Objective Objective Specific Specific Improvement Improvement Formative Formative Information Information Scheduled Scheduled Formal Formal Subjective Subjective Global Global Grade Grade Summative Summative Judgment Judgment

27. RIME Evaluation Framework Reporter – Provides data Reporter – Provides data –WBC count 15; chest x-ray infiltrate Interpreter – Integrates data Interpreter – Integrates data –Differential diagnosis including pneumonia Manager – Implements Manager – Implements –Treats with antibiotic, arranges hospital admission Educator – Teaches Educator – Teaches –Shows how individual data led to diagnosis of pneumonia and how to treat it

28. SCENARIO #2 Answer the following questions: 1. How would you improve the feedback that was given? 2. Use the RIME System to assess the learner

29. Comments? 1. 2. 3. 4.

31. Feedback in the Clinical Setting Observe the learner Observe the learner Describe a notable aspect of performance Describe a notable aspect of performance Wait for a response Wait for a response Recommend a next step to Recommend a next step to enhance their performance enhance their performance Arrange for a retry Arrange for a retry

32. Evaluation of Clinical Learners Reinforce what they are doing well Reinforce what they are doing well Educate about areas in which improvement is possible Educate about areas in which improvement is possible Affirm your belief in their ability to follow this advice Affirm your belief in their ability to follow this advice Check for their understanding by asking for a plan Check for their understanding by asking for a plan Commit to help Commit to help

33. Teaching Challenges The unmotivated student The unprofessional student Confrontation/Conflict Time constraints Navigating the learner/teacher role

34. Intro to Teaching: Conclusions It’s important and you’ll do it regularly Make it relevant, practical Capitalize on teachable moments Use your new teaching skills (1 min. preceptor) Give timely feedback, assess with RIME Ask for help, more to come
