Reimagining and Reinventing Health Professions Education in COVID's Environment: Moving From Crisis to Opportunity

Mon, April 12, 9:30 to 11:00am EDT (9:30 to 11:00am EDT), Division I, Division I Paper and Symposium Sessions

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

COVID changed the paradigm for education, including health professions education (HPE). The debate about supremacy of in-class learning over online learning has diminished. Efforts now focus on the risk of not adapting to change and the rapid creation of innovative approaches to achieve learning outcomes under challenging and unprecedented conditions. Presenters will introduce critical issues that emerged and inventive approaches developed for format, content, timing, and personal impact in response to COVID challenges. Small presenter led groups will expand on those issues and explore elements that transformed this HPE crisis into opportunity to advance education equitably through dialogue and experience sharing. The whole group will identify novel solutions on which to build a more effective education paradigm.
