Background: This study investigated changes in students' perceptions related to research following a student-engaged medical research curriculum.
Methods: Three surveys were administered to 112 medical students to examine the changes in their perceptions of the need for research competence, research interest, and research self-efficacy after each Medical Research Practice course.
Results: The results revealed a decline in the perception of the need for research competence and research interest after Medical Research Practice 2, with a subsequent increase after Medical Research Practice 3. Conversely, research self-efficacy showed steady improvement throughout the curriculum. Additionally, students with prior research experience exhibited higher levels of perception of the need for research competence, research interest, and research self-efficacy than those without such experience.
Conclusion: This study provides insights into how medical students' perceptions change in relation to student-engaged medical research course experiences, supporting expanding research-related curricula and assisting in the development and systematic implementation of similar programs in other medical schools.

Introduction Oral presentation and public speaking skills are poorly emphasised in the medical school curriculum. The student grand round was created to tackle this deficiency by changing the way in which students are taught, from traditional lecture-based learning to interactive small-group peer-to-peer teaching. This approach encourages students to become responsible for their own learning, develop their public speaking and teaching skills, as well as identify and address gaps in their knowledge.

Background: As the need for healthcare professionals continues to grow, different learning environments have been assessed to optimize knowledge while keeping the student engaged. Escape rooms, live action, team-based exercises, supplemented with TeamSTEPPS tools can assist in overall team performance, while keeping the participant engaged in a new learning environment.
Objective: The goal of this quality improvement project was to enhance teamwork and collaboration through the integration of TeamSTEPPS concepts and escape room active learning.

Background: Expanding clinical teaching opportunities is essential for securing a sustainable health workforce. Although Tasmanian general practitioners (GPs) are keen to provide learning opportunities for medical students, they have identified time pressures due to a need to meet patient service demand and a need for more guidance on effective clinical teaching, as factors impacting their ability to increase clinical supervision. By developing a clinical audit activity, we delivered an educational resource that did not require direct GP supervision yet provided meaningful learning outcomes for students.
