We're continuing the re-runs for a while, starting with the Episode that has had over 8,000 downloads since November 2018!

Jonathan Sherbino discusses a paper on the 'art of observation' and how it can be used to improve observation skills in medical ophthalmology students. Observation is often not provided explicitly so will formal training in the visual arts help to gain observation skills.

Authors: Gurwin J, Revere KE, Niepold S, Bassett B, Mitchell R, Davidson S, DeLisser H, Binenbaum G.

We're embarking on another set of reruns for a few weeks while the hosts use this time to evaluate the impact and future of KeyLIME. We hope to have some news soon, but in the meantime, we know you'll love this series of Method Consults by Dr. Lara Varpio.

As a PHD trained scientist working in the field, it is of Lara's opinion that her job is to help others gain the skills and expertise needed to engage in Health Professions Education scholarship and research.

In this consult, originally released in February 2022, Lara tackles a topic she is often asked about: the distinction between theory, theoretical frameworks and conceptual frameworks. Although she has explored the topic in the past, she is taking a different approach this time - using concrete examples, found in an article entitled Intersections of power: Videoconferenced debriefing of a rural interprofessional simulation team by an urban interprofessional debriefing team (Full reference below)

Dalinghaus K, G Regehr and L Nimmon. Intersections of power: videoconferenced debriefing of a rural interprofessional simulation team by an urban interprofessional debriefing team. Perspect Med Educ. 2021; 10, 286–292.

In this consult, originally released in November 2021, Lara talks about the foundational principles of mixed methods research and the different interpretations of those principles. Bonus! - she haS provided a ton of resources for those who would like to explore the topic further!

In this consult, originally released in October 2020 Lara responds to a listener email who, after listening to Episode 259, requested a consult on the difference between theories & models and theoretical & conceptual frameworks. Lara goes beyond the request and touches on the following topics: 

• Theory
• Theoretical framework
• Conceptual framework
• Objective deductive approach
• Subjective Inductive approach
• Social Constructive ism
• Social Construction-ism
• Citations
