A nonintrusive e-mail reminder incorporating teaching tips and manuscripts was developed to supplement resident-as-teacher curricula.
Ten high-yield manuscripts and 10 teaching tips exemplifying the themes of mentorship or role modeling, teaching methods, adult learning theory, feedback, and the resident role of teaching were distributed to general surgery house staff through a weekly e-mail series. House staff completed surveys before and after the 20-week e-mail series.
Thirty (43%) and 28 (40%) respondents completed the pre-e-mail and post-e-mail survey, respectively. Residents found teaching tips to be more helpful than manuscripts. Weekly e-mail reminders were "just right" in frequency according to 74% of respondents. Forty percent of residents felt the weekly e-mails helped them teach more often and 50% of residents changed their teaching style.
Weekly reminders are an easy way to encourage resident teaching without a significant resident time commitment. Residents typically find teaching tips to be more useful than manuscripts.
开发了一种包含教学提示和手稿的非侵入式电子邮件提醒,以补充住院医师作为教师的课程。
通过每周电子邮件系列向普通外科住院医师分发10篇高影响力的手稿和10条教学提示,这些提示体现了指导或榜样示范、教学方法、成人学习理论、反馈以及住院医师教学角色等主题。住院医师在为期20周的电子邮件系列前后完成了调查。
分别有30名(43%)和28名(40%)受访者完成了电子邮件前和电子邮件后的调查。住院医师发现教学提示比手稿更有帮助。根据74%的受访者,每周电子邮件提醒的频率“恰到好处”。40%的住院医师认为每周电子邮件帮助他们更频繁地教学,50%的住院医师改变了他们的教学风格。
每周提醒是鼓励住院医师教学的一种简单方法,而无需住院医师投入大量时间。住院医师通常发现教学提示比手稿更有用。
