1/ Hey #MedTwitter & #MedEd Friends!

I welcomed a new little lady into my life in Sept & spent 3 months getting to know her. #TheBest

But…We have missed you!!! And we are so pumped that #TwagTeamBackAgain

Follow: @GStetsonMD, @JenniferSpicer4, & @MedEdTwagTeam to stay #UTD

2/ When we paused, we had just finished the foundation of the #HierarchyOfTeachingSkills.

This first level of skills is all about creating #PsychologicalSafety.

If you want to see any of our previous threads, 👀 the @MedEdTwagTeam account.

Today we are moving onto Feedback.

3/ We think this topic is SOOO important, we are going to spend 10 #TweetorialTuesdays on it. Today is the intro.

Often, we separate feedback from teaching. But...

FEEDBACK = TEACHING!!!

4/ Medicine is an apprenticeship model defined by performance of real patient care with increasing levels of autonomy.

Feedback has the potential to improve the SKILLS of trainees (both "superstars" & "rising stars") far more than a lecture, chalk talk or small group session.

5/ But feedback is only as good as the methods, and we have many key points to cover.

We know this is a hot topic as our friend @LiangRhea pointed out last week.

We plan to answer these question and many more over the next 9 weeks.

6/ Key principles that have formed our outlook:

🔑 The Educational Alliance (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25406607/)
🔑 The Growth Mindset (Carol Dweck + pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29411668/)
🔑 Feedback as Coaching (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26200584/ + pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30907439/)
🔑 The A.R.T. of Feedback @ACHonline

7/ We also must shout out our mentors who have been formative in our careers and the development of this content:
🌟 The Inimitable @gradydoctor
🌟 The Feedback Master @DrCalvinChou

8/ We have some quality #content coming your way, but we also know you all have a wealth of knowledge.

To make sure we achieve YOUR goals, and share all our collective wisdom, please leave a comment here with answers to either or both of these questions.

9/ This week was just a #teaser. Next week we will get into the meat of this discussion and talk about building a feedback culture through #settingexpectations

Thanks for all the support! We will see you next #TweetorialTuesday.
