This workshop explains how to dissect performance-based assessments into component parts with explicit links to possible validity threats, apply validity concepts to better structure performance-based assessments and critically examine/evaluate performance-based assessment plans.

This workshop introduces key strategies related to teaching in the clinical setting. Participants will learn how to apply strategies to enhance the educational climate and compare/contrast different preceptorship models. We discuss the importance of transparency and non-hierarchical teaching approaches.

This workshop provides a foundational overview of implementing simulation into current practice by broadly introducing essential concepts of simulation. Participant will explore the various applications of simulation, and identify opportunities to apply simulation into current practice.

This workshop describes elements of effective mentoring relationships and some of the skills that are required to establish and maintain mentoring relationships. Participants review their role in the promotion of mentoring 'culture' in their organization.

This workshop provides a framework for embedding equity, diversity, and inclusion into CPD instructional design and delivery. We discuss how to create equitable, accessible and inclusive learning environments through the application of a health equity and inclusion framework.

Are you new to curriculum design or looking to refresh your knowledge? This interactive session is ideal for those stepping into education roles or exploring curriculum development.

This workshop provides participants with the opportunity to reflect on both providing feedback from the teacher’s perspective and receiving feedback from the learner’s perspective. We will compare and contrast different “conversational choices” available to educators as part of their learning conversations.

The workshop explores the reasons for conducting surveys as well as how to optimize alignment between survey methods, scholarly questions, and research paradigms. Participants will be introduced to best practices for question development, survey administration, data analysis, and interpretation.

This workshop engages participants to reflect on their own existing leadership abilities and approaches and helps identify potential gaps in their skills and experience. We will work on developing action plans to help participants further develop as leaders.

This workshop provides participants with the opportunity to both explore wellness tensions and identify ways to address them. Participants identify where tensions exist for their own roles that impact wellbeing and discuss approaches to ‘navigating’ these tensions.

This workshop creates space for discussion/critical reflection on the myriad ways patients are and can be involved in HPE. We introduce a conceptual framework for understanding patient involvement, identify goals for involving patients, and discuss practices of patient involvement and their ethical implications.

This workshop is focused on the alignment between curriculum, instructional practice, and subsequent assessment. We look at current theory on how assessment practices can shape and enhance learning and work on practical exercise to apply this knowledge to individual assessment practice.

This workshop introduces participants to six paradigms of education relevant and prevalent in HPE. Participants are provided with an overview of each paradigm, how they are related to common education practices in HPE and how awareness of paradigmatic details and differences support aligned teaching/assessment approaches.

This workshop is an introduction to collaborative learning. It introduces participants to the evidence, best practices and principles for teaching collaboratively. Participants will have the opportunity to develop a mini workshop and practice collaborative learning facilitation in the virtual setting.

This interactive and reflective workshop helps participants identify and name the power structures in which they operate. We will unpack and demystify key concepts often placed under the “EDI” umbrella, while regularly reflecting and dialoguing about how power underpins all of these concepts.

This workshop will provide an opportunity for in-depth exploration of the science of adaptive expertise. We will describe the construct of adaptive expertise, present examples of evidence-based cognitive and curricular mechanisms that support development of adaptive expertise and help participants envision the translation of theoretical research into education practice.
