Learning communities (LCs) have increasingly been incorporated into undergraduate medical education at a number of medical schools in the United States over the past decade. In an Association of Medical Colleges survey of 140 medical schools, 102 schools indicated that they had LC (described as or mentorship groups; https://www.aamc.org/initiatives/cir/425510/19a.html). LCs share an overarching principle of establishing longitudinal relationships with students and faculty, but differ in the emphasis on specific components that may include curriculum delivery, advising/ mentoring, student wellness, and community. The creation of LCs requires institutional commitment to reorganize educational processes to become more student centered. LCs are beginning to show positive outcomes for students including benefits related to clinical skills development, advising, and student wellness, in addition to positive outcomes for LC faculty.
在过去十年里,学习社区(LCs)在美国多所医学院校的本科医学教育中越来越多地被采用。在医学院协会对140所医学院校的调查中,102所学校表示他们有学习社区(被描述为小组或导师小组;https://www.aamc.org/initiatives/cir/425510/19a.html)。学习社区有一个总体原则,即与学生和教师建立长期关系,但在对特定组成部分的重视程度上有所不同,这些组成部分可能包括课程交付、咨询/指导、学生健康和社区。学习社区的创建需要机构致力于重新组织教育过程,以变得更加以学生为中心。学习社区开始对学生显示出积极成果,包括与临床技能发展、咨询和学生健康相关的益处,此外对学习社区的教师也有积极成果。
