New Educator and Scholars Training: Free Online Workshop

Are you a medical student interested in one day becoming a medical educator? Or do you have any students who have expressed an interest in teaching and training? During the upcoming virtual annual conference being presented by IAMSE (the International Association of Medical Science Educators), ScholarRx will be holding a free online workshop in conjunction with our NEST (New Educator and Scholars Training) program.

This virtual event will take place on Saturday, June 13, 2020, and run from 12:00pm to 3:00pm EDT.  You can sign up here.

This online workshop will provide student participants with an introductory, hands-on experience in applying Kern’s Six-Step model to design a complete education activity with appropriate pedagogic strategies. Students will also explore models of converting medical education design and development into scholarship.

The speakers include:

Chris Burns – California Health Sciences University
Tao Le – University of Louisville
Elisabeth Schlegel – Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell
Yun Weisholtz – Research Associate

After participating in this session, student attendees should be able to:

1. Describe a framework for medical education professional development
2. Discuss and apply principles and best practices for curriculum design, pedagogic strategies, and educational scholarship
3. Identify and synthesize themes that integrate across major domains of medical education professional development.

Space is limited, so sign up today.
