TLDR
The trends are: outcome based education and a unitary approach to medical education; the use of simulators and e-learning; competency and performance based assessment, and portfolios and self assessment; and training the trainer and best evidence medical education.Abstract:
Where is the present flurry of activity in medical education leading and what sort of future is envisaged? This paper looks at trends in postgraduate medical education. Four themes and two trends for each theme have been identified. The themes are: the postgraduate medical curriculum, the application of learning technologies, assessment of competence, and professionalism in medical education. The trends are: outcome based education and a unitary approach to medical education; the use of simulators and e-learning; competency and performance based assessment, and portfolios and self assessment; and training the trainer and best evidence medical education. Any limitations in implementing change will likely result from a lack of imagination in those planning postgraduate medical education and their ability to bring about the necessary changes. To avoid a growing gap developing between what is possible educationally and what is delivered, it is clear that we need a new paradigm for postgraduate medical education.read more

Peer teaching in medical education: twelve reasons to move from theory to practice
Olle ten Cate,Steven J. Durning +1 more
TL;DR: An estimation of how often peer teaching is applied in medical education is provided, based on reports in the literature and to summarize reasons that support the use of this form of teaching, to conclude that specifically ‘near-peer teaching’ appears beneficial for student teachers and learners as well as for the organisation.

Perceptions of medical students towards online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic: a national cross-sectional survey of 2721 UK medical students
TL;DR: In order to maximise the benefits of both face-to-face and online teaching and to improve the efficacy of medical education in the future, it is suggested medical schools resort to teaching formats such as team-based/problem-based learning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Internet-based medical education: a realist review of what works, for whom and in what circumstances.
TL;DR: Two main theories of the course-in-context that explained variation in learners' satisfaction and outcomes were identified: Davis's Technology Acceptance Model and Laurillard's model of interactive dialogue.

Features and uses of high-fidelity medical simulations that lead to effective learning: a BEME systematic review
TL;DR: While research in this field needs improvement in terms of rigor and quality, high-fidelity medical simulations are educationally effective and simulation-based education complements medical education in patient care settings.

TL;DR: Virtual reality (VR) for improved performance of MIS is now a reality, however, VR is only a training tool that must be thoughtfully introduced into a surgical training curriculum for it to successfully improve surgical technical skills.

AMEE Guide No. 21: Curriculum mapping: a tool for transparent and authentic teaching and learning.
TL;DR: Faced with curricula which are becoming more centralized and less departmentally based, and with curriculas including both core and optional elements, the teacher may find that the curriculum map is the glue which holds the curriculum together.
