4. How many of you supervise medical students and/or trainees?

5. How many of you have formal training in teaching?

6. What is the biggest challenge you face precepting learners?

7. Which of the following is most strongly associated with improved learning? • Supervision • Number of patients seen • Board scores • Medical School

8. Supervision & Feedback: A Winning Combo Quality and frequency of supervision has a stronger correlation to improved performance than does number of patients seen. Conversely, studies have shown that lack of supervision was most strongly correlated adversely affecting student learning.

10. Objective At the completion of this presentation, as busy preceptors, you will be better prepared to: • Implement several quick and easy teaching strategies, including The One-Minute Preceptor and giving effective feedback, into your daily teaching

11. Characteristics of Excellent Clinical Teachers

12. Literature review of “Good Clinical Teachers in Medicine” Sutkin, et al (2008) • 68 articles or essays (1909-2006) • Teacher and human characteristics identified

13. State of Clinical Skills Teaching(Howley and Wilson, Academic Medicine, 2004 ) • In a survey of 345 medical students completing their clinical clerkship at a large US medical school (averaged across clerkships): by either faculty or residents: • 49% never observed taking a history • 46% never observed doing focused PE • 20% never observed doing a complete PE

14. Teacher characteristics • Maintains positive relationships with students and a supportive learning environment (27) • Demonstrates enthusiasm for teaching (18) • Is accessible/available to students (16) • Provides effective explanations, answers to questions, and demonstrations (16) • Provides feedback and formative assessments (15) • Is organized and communicates objectives (14) • Demonstrates knowledge of teaching skills, methods, principles, and their application (12) • Stimulates students’ interest in learning and/or subject (12) • Stimulates of inspires trainees’ thinking (11) • Encourages trainees’ active involvement in clinical work (11) • Provides individual attention to students (10) • Demonstrates commitment to improvement of teaching (10) • Actively involves students (10) • Demonstrates learner assessment/evaluation skills (7) • Uses questioning skills (4) • Stimulates trainees’ reflective practice and assessment (4) • Teaches professionalism (4) • Is dynamic, enthusiastic and engaging (3) • Emphasizes observation (2) • Other (5)

15. Top 5 Teacher Characteristics • Maintains positive relationships with students and a supportive learning environment (27) • Demonstrates enthusiasm for teaching (18) • Is accessible/available to students (16) • Provides effective explanations, answers to questions, and demonstrations (16) • Provides feedback and formative assessments (15)

16. Human Characteristics • Communication skills (21) • Act as a role-model (15) • Is an enthusiastic person in general (14) • Is personable (12) • Is compassionate/empathetic (11) • Respects others (11) • Displays honesty/integrity (10) • Has wisdom, intelligence, common sense and good judgment (7) • Appreciates cultural and different cultural backgrounds (6) • Considers others’ perspectives (6) • Is patient (4) • Balances professional and personal life (4) • Is perceived as a virtuous person and a globally good person (4) • Maintains health, appearance and hygiene (3) • Is modest and humble (3) • Has a good sense of humor (3) • Is responsible and conscientious (3) • Is imaginative (3) • Has self-insight, self-knowledge, and is reflective (2) • Is altruistic (2) • Other (12)

17. Top 5 Human Characteristics • Communication skills (21) • Act as a role-model (15) • Is an enthusiastic person in general (14) • Is personable (12) • Is compassionate/empathetic (11)

18. Learners Want More… Medical students and residents report (locally & nationally) • They do not receive adequate and appropriate supervision • They do not receive (enough) timely and useful feedback

19. What accounts for the “Feedback Gap”? • Learners say the don’t receive enough feedback • Faculty say they give feedback all the time Strategy #1: Start any discussion where you plan to give feedback with “The feedback I have for you is…”

20. Strategy #2 Priming the Learner • Orient the learner to the patient prior to the encounter • One-minute patient orientation with a contextual framework • Preceptors should: • Review the patient medical background • Tell the learner what complaint to focus on • Set guidelines for the Px • Set time limit for the initial encounter • Communicate your priorities for learners before each patient interaction

21. Rapid Teaching Techniques • Maximum teaching in limited time • Strategy #3: The One-minute Preceptor • The Aunt Minnie Model • SNAPPS • “Activated Demonstrations” • Case presentations at the bedside

22. The “One-Minute Preceptor” • The most widely known and researched teaching method is the “one-minute preceptor” model. • Research on the one-minute preceptor model has found • strong “happiness data” or satisfaction with the model by learners and teachers • improved faculty and resident teaching ratings after students were observed and provided feedback on the basis of the model

23. “The One-Minute Preceptor” Involves identifying the needs of each individual learner, teaching, and providing feedback by using a fourstep approach: • Get a commitment about what the learner thinks is going on with the patient; • Probe for underlying reasoning or alternative explanations; • Teacha general principle; • Provide positive feedback about what was done well; Correct errors and make suggestions for improvement

24. Beware of preceptor teaching pitfalls • “Taking over” • Inappropriate lectures • Insufficient “wait-time” • 3-5 second wait • Pre-programmed answers • Could it be an ulcer? Do you think it’s cancer? • Rapid reward • Ends the learners thinking process and is insincere • Pushing past ability • Pushing the learner beyond their understanding

25. Role Play

26. Get a commitment about what the learner thinks is going on with the patient; Probe for underlying reasoning or alternative explanations; Teach a general principle; Provide positive feedback about what done right; Correct any errors and/or make suggestions for improvement

27. Last words on the Importance of Giving Feedback • One of the most underused yet powerful instructional strategies available • Takes less than a minute, and several of the above models build feedback into the sequence. • Provides the learner with a description of their strengths and recommendations for improvement. • Go beyond praise to specific descriptive comments about a learners performance. • Serves as an opportunity to promote self reflection and independent study

28. What’s wrong with the… The “Feedback Sandwich” What was done right What needs improvement What to do next time 4-25

29. Giving feedback and encouraging students to reflect [on their own performance], supervisors can have a positive affect on learning (Irby & Bowen, 2004). Feedback and reflection are basic teaching methods of the clinical setting; unfortunately, they are generally underused (Branch & Paranjape, 2002) Feedback & Self-Reflection

30. Strategy #4: Feedback & Self-Reflection • Ask learners to rate, discuss, express how they feel/think an experience went. • Ask learners to explain what they did well • Ask learners to explain what they need help with, have trouble with, would like to learn more about, etc.

31. Summary • Strategy #1: “The feedback I have for you is…” • Strategy #2: Priming the student • Strategy #3: The One-minute Preceptor • Strategy #4: Self-assessment/feedback
