Considering “Nonlinearity” Across the Continuum in Medical Education Assessment: Supporting Theory, Practice, and Future Research Directions
The purpose of this article is to propose new approaches to assessment that are grounded in educational theory and the concept of “nonlinearity.” The new approaches take into account related phenomena such as “uncertainty,” “ambiguity,” and “chaos.” To illustrate these approaches, we will use the example of assessment of clinical reasoning, although the principles we outline may apply equally well to assessment of other constructs in medical education. Theoretical perspectives include a discussion of script theory, assimilation theory, self‐regulated learning theory, and situated cognition. Assessment exa...

Encouraging Reflection and Change in Clinical Practice: Evolution of a Tool
This article describes the systematic development and gradual transformation of a tool to guide participants in a continuing medical education program to reflect on their current practices and to make commitments to change. The continuous improvement of this tool was influenced by evolving needs of the program, reviews of relevant educational literature, feedback from periodic program surveys, interviews with group facilitators, and results from educational research studies. As an integral component of the educational process used in the Practice Based Small Group Learning Program, the current tool is designed to help fami...

Networked Learning and Network Science: Potential Applications to Health Professionals’ Continuing Education and Development
Prior interpersonal relationships and interactivity among members of professional associations may impact the learning process in continuing medical education (CME). On the other hand, CME programs that encourage interactivity between participants may impact structures and behaviors in these professional associations. With the advent of information and communication technologies, new communication spaces have emerged that have the potential to enhance networked learning in national and international professional associations and increase the effectiveness of CME for health professionals. In this article, network science, b...

Is the Cognitive Complexity of Commitment‐to‐Change Statements Associated With Change in Clinical Practice? An Application of Bloom's Taxonomy
ConclusionThe “enhanced” CTC options captured changes that would not otherwise be identified and may be worthy of further exploration in other CME activities. Using Bloom's taxonomy to code the PRT statements proved useful in highlighting the progression through increasing levels of cognitive complexity—reflecting deep learning.

Using a Critical Incident Scenario With Virtual Humans to Assess Educational Needs of Nurses in a Postanesthesia Care Unit
This study provides evidence that virtual humans can be used in simulated critical incidents to assess the learning needs of health professionals, and provide important information that can inform the development of continuing education programs in patient safety. We explored the effectiveness of information transfer during a devolving medical situation between postanesthesia care unit (PACU) nurses and a virtual attending physician. MethodsWe designed a three‐stage scenario: tutorial, patient transfer, and critical incident. We developed 2 checklists to assess information transfer: Critical Patient Information and Inter...
