Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze Individualized Learning Plans (ILPs) created by pediatric subinterns to understand their learning and assessment strategies, along with the barriers and facilitators to their learning.
- Researchers examined 204 ILPs across 10 US medical schools, focusing on 850 learning objectives and grouping the findings into categories like rationale, learning strategies, and challenges.
- The results showed students were committed to self-directed learning, used a variety of creative strategies, and relied on self-reflection, while also experiencing support or obstacles from their learning environments, providing valuable insights for educators.
With increasing globalization, many students and staff are experiencing how difficult it is to work in a different culture.
