Educational Research - Editors' tips for success in publishing (Panel )
Hosted by IAMSE
Hosted by IAMSE
Publishing your research results in a journal for medical education can be a very difficult thing to do. There are numerous journals out there, so which one is the most appropriate one for you to choose? Journals have their own focus and topics, their
own audience, and their own procedures on reviewing and selecting manuscripts to publish. To help the participants of this seminar in getting their work published, a panel of 5 Editors-in-Chief will present their own journal for medical education
and will highlight the unique properties of that specific journal. he journals represented in the panel are Medical Science Educator, Medical Teacher, Teaching and Learning in Medicine, Advances in Health Sciences Education, and Medical Education
Online. Each Editor will also bring forward a tip for authors that might be helping them in the process of preparing, submitting and revising materials in such a way it increases the chances of success. After the short presentations, the seminar

Educating Medical Students in a Clinical Environment Throughout the Entire Curriculum
Hosted by IAMSE
Hosted by IAMSE
Innovative approaches to medical student education in the US have recently been discussed again as the cost of higher education and medical school continue to increase. Creative options have been proposed, including elimination of clinical experiences,
requiring historical medical school coursework to be completed in the undergraduate years and shortening the duration of medical school, among others. In this webinar, information about a six year combined Baccalaureate/MD program will be provided.
In this program, students are admitted directly from high school and immediately begin integrated undergraduate and medical school coursework. Similar to medical schooling in other countries, this program has over 40 years experience educating
students in the heart of the US. With over 3000 graduates, the program has alumni who are instrumental in many aspects of medicine, achieve great success and hold remarkable leadership positions throughout the United States.

Hosted by Dr. Jed David Gonzalo, MD, MSc; Associate Dean for Health Systems Education and Dr. Britta Thompson, MS, PhD: Associate Dean for Learner Assessment and Program Evaluation at Penn State College of Medicine
The session described Penn State College of Medicine’s new Systems Navigation Curriculum (SyNC) which involves building relationships and collaborating with leaders of affiliated health systems in central Pennsylvania to design educational experiences
that align medical education with health system needs. SyNC, launched in August 2014, combines a course in the Science of Health Systems with an immersive experience as a patient navigator. We will focus our discussion on the patient navigation
component which provides opportunity for value added student roles in clinical settings in the Penn State Hershey Health System and other health systems throughout central Pennsylvania. In addition, we will discuss how the longitudinal curriculum
integrates core systems sciences such as health policy, high-value care, and population and public health with two threads related to evidence-based medicine, along with teamwork and leadership training throughout seven modules. Both the curriculum
and patient navigation component are designed to allow students to develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes to function effectively amid the complexities of an evolving health system.

Hosted by Russell Mumper, PhD; Vice Dean, John McNeill Distinguished Professor, Professor, UNC/NCSU Joint Dept. of Biomedical Engineering, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Eshelman School of Pharmacy
Dr. Russell Mumper hit a roadblock in his core Pharmaceutics class. Having taught the class for nearly a decade, including the last four at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, he noticed that students were increasingly more distracted
and the majority of his interaction with students was about core, foundational content.
In addition, every year the class scored an average 80 percent on the cumulative final exam. Faced with a mountain of content, not enough time and distracted students, Dr. Mumper was dissatisfied with the results and decided it was time for a change.
Motivated by how engaged his students were in discussions outside of class and during group work, Dr. Mumper decided to flip his class. By flipping the class, in-class time was used to implement active learning strategies. The UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy had recorded lectures for four years using lecture capture technology. Using the same technology, Dr. Mumper decided to create a library of recordings of critical core content for his students to view prior to coming to class.
Join us for this complimentary webinar and hear how Dr. Mumper conducted his three-year study on the flipped classroom. Learn:

Engage online students with targeted feedback
Presented by Jill Schiefelbein
This one hour session focused on online students but these suggestions could also be employed in a face to face class. She discussed the following topics.
- Prompting involvement in discussion boards
- Use of discussion boards titled "hallway conversation" to answer questions frequently asked by students (instead of email replies)
- Giving feedback on a regular basis using email templates (e.g. the course has x number of points and to date you have y points, etc.)
