Faculty Feed

As healthcare professionals we have largely ignored the 2019 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association guidelines on primary prevention of cardiovascular disease when we make choices about what we eat and how (or whether) we exercise. Dr. Kim Williams, Chair of the Department of Internal Medicine at the UofL School of Medicine, and past president of the American College of Cardiology (2015-16) was one of the key authors of these guidelines. He joins us today on Faculty Feed to share the data and his insights on the impact of the choices we make on our own health, our patients’ health, the economy, and the health of the planet. Join us…and come hungry.

In this previously run episode of Faculty Feed, we talk with Dr. Russ Farmer (Associate Professor, Department of Surgery) about how best to drive critical thinking skills in our learners. He highlights a tool that facilitates the use of strategic questioning strategies for our busy and chaotic clinical learning environments. Instead of defaulting to lower-order questions that require only fact-based answers, this tool, the Questioning Aid for Rich, Real-Time Discussion (QARRD), prompts faculty to craft higher-order questions that require the learner to apply, analyze, evaluate, and create solutions to clinical problems. Better questions drive the development of critical thinking skills in our learners. The app is now available on Apple and Android. Search in the app store for QARRD.

Have you ever struggled with giving feedback to a learner? Most learners feel that they don’t receive actionable feedback on their performance, and feedback often impairs performance by threatening self-esteem. In this episode of Faculty Feed, Dr. Jerry Rabalais and Dr. Staci Saner tackle the crucial topic of feedback with Dr. Sara Multerer, Residency Program Director, Department of Pediatrics. We review the latest research and discuss what we can do to promote feedback aimed at professional development by creating a feedback culture in our organizations.

Women and minoritized faculty have heard and experienced this “twice as good” advice in their careers. This is seen as a necessary effort for success at work that can lead to racial battle fatigue. Listen in to learn from Dr. Seals who has studied this phenomenon as an educational psychologist and how it relates to learning theory and motivation for women and minoritized faculty, and what you as an educator can do as you Notice-Empathize- Act in support of your marginalized students. 

Listen to this TED talk by Carol Dweck to learn more about growth vs fixed mindsets in learning and consider how it relates to the “twice as” phenomenon. https://www.ted.com/talks/carol_dweck_the_power_of_believing_that_you_can_improve?language=en

What could you learn from a 40-year faculty member who ultimately rose through the ranks to become the first woman dean of the UofL School of Medicine? This week we talk with Dr. Toni Ganzel, M.D., M.B.A., who is retiring from UofL after serving 12 years as Dean of the School of Medicine. We discuss the three phases of her career from clinician to Associate Dean of Student Affairs and then Dean of the School of Medicine and what she has learned along the way. Dr. Ganzel’s parting message has much to offer to all faculty members, but especially our women faculty. After listening to this episode, she wants you to choose to dance rather than sit out your time at UofL.
