The Relationship Between the Learning Environment and Trainee Well-Being
During this session, Dr. Dyrbye will discuss the prevalence, drivers, and consequences of professional burnout, focusing on medical students and residents. She will propose a variety of evidence-informed strategies for how organizations can mitigate the risk of burnout.

Concurrent Workshop Session I
9:50am - 11:00am LKSC ROOM 101/102
Scaling Up Coaching: Democratizing Quality Coaching in Medical Education
Research shows that coaching leads to increased individual growth, enhanced skills and performance, improved motivation, and support of diversity and inclusion. Organized medicine now proposes integrating coaching into medical education. However, most medical educators lack formal coaching training and experience. This workshop aims to bridge these gaps using a mix of short didactics, facilitated discussions, and opportunities for real-time practice that will enable participants to immediately apply these skills in their day-to-day work with trainees and colleagues.

An Innovative Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Simulation Module Using 3-Dimensional (3D) Printed Models
This workshop will include a summary of the two-phase novel vascular and endovascular surgical curriculum that was introduced during the third-year medical student clerkship over the last academic year. This will include smaller group demonstrations of curricular components including the 3D models of common vascular pathology in addition to open and endovascular skills. The workshop will also include a presentation of key findings from data collection.

Learning Culture, by Design: Fostering Reflective Practitioners
Whether you’re aware of it or not, your classroom has a culture (hopefully not a bacterial one!). How does the broader culture of medicine impact the culture of your classroom? And, how can you design a culture that is proven to foster learning? In this session, you’ll learn tools to design a healthy learning culture and foster reflective practitioners.

Reimagining Teaching & Mentoring in Medical Education: Student-Centered Perspectives on Social Justice Learning
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and social movement for racial justice has highlighted the prevalent health disparities that require reassessment and rebuilding of medical education to meet the needs of marginalized communities. We conducted a qualitative study involving interviews with current Stanford medical students to analyze their perspectives on learning social justice in medicine with critical implications for current teaching and mentoring practices. Through this workshop, we will integrate brief didactic content to disseminate key findings on students’ perspectives on social justice learning; experiential activities for participants to examine their own positionality as educators and mentors; and small group discussions for participants to reflect on their current practices and ideate opportunities for transformative impact.

Teaching Pediatric Residents a Communication Framework for Delivering Difficult News
Medical trainees are expected to be able to deliver difficult news of various scales to patients and their families on a regular basis - so we created an innovative and self-sustaining curriculum to teach them a framework for the tough conversations. In this workshop, you will learn the modified-SPIKES framework, a framework for delivering difficult news to pediatric patients and their families. It will consist of an interactive didactic and exemplar video, followed by small group discussions and practice.

Go Back, But Don’t Go Backwards.
Return to the classroom without relapsing to bad habits. Instead, capitalize on a narrow window of opportunity--during which students (and administrators) are unusually receptive to change and innovation--to build a more effective, more inclusive, and more equitable classroom experience. Using small group discussion, we will explore lessons from hybrid instruction models and how they can point the way toward dynamic discussion forums, a broader range of active learning strategies, constructive community-building, and richer, more informative assessment.

Laying a Foundation for Health Equity and Social Justice in MedEd
In this session, we will explore the formal process of integrating health equity dialogue and content into undergraduate medical education. We will discuss the challenges encountered by the Social Justice and Health Equity Curriculum Thread Committee, the successes uncovered along the way, and offer best practices for implementing curricular reform.

Teaching Anti-Racism in Healthcare: 5-Minute Moment for Racial Justice
Structural racism affects the way we evaluate, diagnosis, and treat patients and their medical conditions and directly contributes to healthcare inequities. In this workshop, large group lecture will bill used to describe examples of structural racism affecting everyday medical decision-making. Participants will then break up into small groups to discuss challenges and successes of navigating this topic and these conversations in the clinical learning environment. Workshop facilitators will introduce and demonstrate a novel teaching framework, the 5-Minute Moment for Racial Justice, as an innovation to teach anti-racism at the bedside.

MED ED 101: The Educator's Toolbox
This workshop will explore the answers to three important questions in medical education: How do I find training opportunities? Where should I publish my scholarship? And, how will I thrive? The workshop will include a mixture of lightning didactics and small group team challenges. Participants will leave with a toolbox of resources and shared wisdom from their peers.

Mentoring and Emotional Intelligence
Emotional Intelligence (EI) has been popularized as a core skill in leadership. In recent years, its relevance to the quality of mentoring started to gain attention. This workshop will introduce participants to the key dimensions of EI that influence mentoring and key studies in this area. The participants will have the opportunity to engage with each other in a discussion of their experiences on this topic and conceptualize how they may want to go about improving the quality of their mentoring experiences (as mentors or mentees) going forward.
