34. STC- Constructing System Models to Bolster Physiology Core Threshold Concept Mental Model Accuracy

• In Event: Roundtables A
  In Roundtable Session: STC- Roundtables A

Short Description

In this session we will share our research into systems thinking and modeling as a means of facilitating physiology concept integration into mental models in graduate physician assistant students. We will guide participants in the collaborative construction of causal loop diagrams within the Google Jamboard environment. We will explore the role of our research findings in emphasizing systems modeling techniques in educational environments where integrative systems knowledge is essential to support transfer to applied scenarios.
