Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX 77030, USA.

Published: October 2010

Objective: The authors review existing assessment tools related to evaluating residents' teaching skills and teaching effectiveness.

Methods: PubMed and PsycInfo databases were searched using combinations of keywords including "residents," "residents as teachers," "teaching skills," and "assessments" or "rating scales."

Results: Eleven evaluation tools that utilized self-reports, learner evaluations, or observed structured teaching evaluations were found. These varied in length from one to 58 items, most of which were both valid and reliable. Additional evaluation tools were found that utilized direct audio- or videotaped recordings of teaching.

Conclusion: This toolbox should facilitate program directors and others in assessing residents' teaching skills and should promote rigorously conducted research on residents as teachers.

We need mentors rather than conventional teachers to inspire students to dream, learn, and grow.

Artificial Intelligence-Powered Training Database for Clinical Thinking: App Development Study.

JMIR Form Res

January 2025

Centre for Reproductive Medicine, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Peking University Third Hospital, Beijing, China.

Background: With the development of artificial intelligence (AI), medicine has entered the era of intelligent medicine, and various aspects, such as medical education and talent cultivation, are also being redefined. The cultivation of clinical thinking abilities poses a formidable challenge even for seasoned clinical educators, as offline training modalities often fall short in bridging the divide between current practice and the desired ideal. Consequently, there arises an imperative need for the expeditious development of a web-based database, tailored to empower physicians in their quest to learn and hone their clinical reasoning skills.

Purpose: The classic paradigm of procedural education in medical training has involved trainees learning and performing invasive bedside procedures and subsequently teaching these procedures to more junior trainees. Many existing resident-as-teacher curricula focus on cognitive domains; there has been a lack of literature examining the transition from learner to teacher in procedural education. This hypothesis-generating instrumental case study explored how expert procedural educators transitioned from novice procedural educators to experts.
