The aim of this study was to examine aspects of a social pediatrics elective that led to student self-reflection and transformation.
To assess student learning from our social pediatric elective, we retrospectively evaluated self-reflection papers. We focused on the effectiveness of the educational approach to inspire students to incorporate the social determinants of health into their practice. Furthermore, in each reflection paper, we looked for evidence of different phases of transformation.
The social determinants of health were the most commonly described theme. Poverty was mentioned directly or described implicitly in almost all papers. For many students, seeing the social context of patients in real life, whether in a special clinic or at a home visit, was a disturbing and disorienting experience that triggered transformation.
The use of reflection papers in the evaluation of a social pediatric elective documented transformative learning.
本研究旨在探讨社会儿科学选修课中促使学生进行自我反思和转变的各个方面。
为评估学生从我们的社会儿科学选修课中学到的内容,我们对自我反思论文进行了回顾性评估。我们关注教育方法激发学生将健康的社会决定因素纳入其实践的有效性。此外,在每篇反思论文中,我们寻找转变不同阶段的证据。
健康的社会决定因素是最常被描述的主题。几乎所有论文都直接提及或隐含描述了贫困。对许多学生来说,在现实生活中看到患者的社会背景,无论是在特殊诊所还是家访时,都是一种令人不安和迷失方向的经历,引发了转变。
在社会儿科学选修课评估中使用反思论文记录了变革性学习。
