Eliminate Remediation Blind Spots and Define a Clear Path to Success for Medical Learners

Objective/Background: Medical students and residents are expected to progress in their medical education using Milestones and other benchmarks to guide learning. However, within medical education, there is no standard pathway or framework for students or residents who require remediation to address professionalism or academic concerns. 

Workshop Agenda: The workshop will be an interactive mix of didactic and case-based learning.  We will define terms such as andragogy, professionalism, and academic failure.  We will suggest methods to establish interrater reliability amongst the faculty to identify the struggling learner including the use of a residency Clinical Competency Committee and a medical student grading committee.  Once we have characterized the struggling learner, we will explain methods used at our institutions to deploy individualized learning plans, including curriculum mapping, for professionalism and academic failure.  

Interactive Component: Case vignettes will be used to create remediation plans for both professionalism and academic failure.  Participants will complete curriculum maps based on the scenarios, develop appropriate learning objectives, and use existing evaluation tools to measure their plans

Take home Product: Handouts will be available to provide a format for implementation including a remediation framework, curriculum maps, and evaluation tools.  A modifiable presentation will be supplied to participants in order to return to their home institutions to use for faculty development.
