Description
An ad hoc committee of 7-9 health professional education experts will plan, organize, and conduct two, 2-day, interactive public workshops exploring issues related to innovations in health professions education (HPE). Membership on the committee will involve educators and other innovators of curriculum development and pedagogy and will be drawn from at least four health disciplines. The workshops will follow a high level framework and serve to establish an orientation for the future work of the Global Forum on Innovation in Health Professional Education. The public workshops will feature invited presentations and small group discussions that will focus on innovations in five areas of HPE:
• Curricular innovations - concentrates on WHAT is being taught to health professions' learners to meet evolving domestic and international needs;
• Pedagogic innovations - looks at HOW the information can be better taught to students and WHERE education can take place;
• Cultural elements - addresses WHO is being taught by whom as a means of enhancing the effectiveness of the design, development and implementation of interprofessional HPE;
• Human Resources for Health - focuses on HOW capacity can be innovatively expanded to better ensure an adequate supply and mix of educated health workers based on local needs; and
• Metrics - addresses HOW one measures whether learner assessment and evaluation of educational impact and care delivery systems influence individual and population health.
The committee will plan and organize the workshops, select and invite speakers and discussants, and moderate the discussions. Single, individually authoredsummaries of the workshops will be prepared by a designated rapporteur.
Workshop one will focus primarily on curricular and pedagogic innovations while workshop two will focus primarily on cultural elements and human resources for health. Metrics will be a theme that weaves throughout the all issues raised in workshops one and two.
