Asset framing can enhance equity in feedback and assessment in medical education. It is said that what you find depends on how you see, and the narratives that we build in our minds can influence our judgement and our assessments when working with learners.

In our article, we discuss biases that may occur in assessment and feedback, and how asset framing can be an effective tool to help mitigate this. We propose solutions at individual, departmental, and institutional levels.
