"Cognitive bias, previously discussed here, is common in medicine and emergency medicine (EM). Metacognition, discussed in this post, can mitigate cognitive error by evaluating one's thinking. Although this seems esoteric, especially to the trainee, there are some concrete ways to go work though this process. "

There's currently a healthy debate raging on the MMSA Standing Committee on Medical Education (SCOME) email server about clinical skills. Granted that the discussion is being held solely by students, it still makes interesting reading (members-only access). The gist of it is whether appropriate training in clinical skills is being afforded to students, how it could improve, and when/where it should be given. I'll quickly run you through the main points of the discussion.

"These patient decision aids (PDAs) have been developed to help support difficult decisions in which patients need to consider benefits versus risks. Decision aids prepare patients for decision-making by increasing their knowledge about expected outcomes and personal values. The PDAs are based on the best available evidence but are not a substitute for a discussion with a suitably skilled healthcare professional. We hope that their use in such discussions will result in better informed, patient-focused decision-making. "

"Professionalism in medicine is, in essence, a conversation about what it means to be a good doctor. It has been a major topic of discussion in the field for many years and will likely remain so for years to come. Physicians still debate how to define it, how to assess it and how to teach it. Younger doctors sometimes have different ideas on what it means to be a professional than older colleagues. "

Calgary learning communities blogging

shared by Natalie Lafferty on 11 Dec 08 - Cached

We talked about many things, but I think the common thread was that this is really not about “blogging” or even technology. It’s about what happens when students are publishing their own content, and collaborating with each other. What does that mean for assessment? How do you properly engage a class of 100 (or more?) students, having them all publish content, exploring various topics, commenting, thinking critically, and still be able to make sense of that much activity?

Since we stepped back a bit from technology, we defined student publishing more broadly, to also include such things as discussion boards and wikis. We talked a bit about blogging as an ePortfolio activity - that it may be effective for students to publish various bits of content through their blog(s) and then to let it percolate and filter until the “best” stuff is distilled into what is essentially an ePortfolio - and maybe THAT’s the artifact that gets assessed. The activity through the blogs is important, but every student will participate in a different way. Maybe it would be a valuable thing to even make blogging itself an optional thing - but those who don’t participate will have had less feedback and refinement of their ePortfolio artifacts.

SNAPP is a software tool that allows users to visualize the network of interactions resulting from discussion forum posts and replies. The network visualisations of forum interactions provide an opportunity for teachers to rapidly identify patterns of user behaviour - at any stage of course progression. SNAPP has been developed to extract all user interactions from various commercial and open source learning management systems (LMS) such as BlackBoard (including the former WebCT), and Moodle. SNAPP is compatible for both Mac and PC users and operates in Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari.

Simply put, writing effective questions is easier than it might seem. You will more often than not observe gains from the very act of engaging your student in the mind tasks of metacognition and retrieval practice and then peer discussion. The questions will of course improve once you get feed back from students and make tweaks.
