1/ Hey #MedTwitter & #MedEd Friends!

We are the #MedEdTwagTeam here with another #TweetorialTuesday!

Today we get into the content of our Feedback threads.

Follow: @GStetsonMD, @JenniferSpicer4, & @MedEdTwagTeam to stay up to date. Image
2/ Here is the 10-week journey we are taking you on to discuss all things #Feedback.

Today we will be talking about developing a #FeedbackCulture through setting expectations.

Also, here is a primer on setting expectations: Image
3/ The first thing to do is instill a #GrowthMindset on your team.

The growth vs. fixed mindset dichotomy was popularized by Dr. Carol Dweck, PhD through her book – Mindset. It is a great read/listen. Below is a quick summary: Image
4/ A #GrowthMindset is cultivated by the words we use and the examples we set through humility. I do this in 3 ways:
1⃣Tie growth to evaluation
2⃣Explain where I am growing
3⃣Give example of practice changing feedback

📝Thread on Allyship and Upstanding: Image
5/ #GrowthMindset provides learners w/ motivation to receive & incorporate feedback.

The next key piece of #FeedbackCulture is relationships. I like two concepts for this:
💡 – The Educational Alliance
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25406607/
💡 – Feedback as Coaching
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30907439/ Image
6/ Both ideas are wonderful, and I love them equally. But when you strip them down, they leave us with some common principles: Image
7/ A note about #FeedbackAsCoaching. This is a great way to think about giving feedback to your ”superstar” learners.

Think about Serena Williams’ or Simone Biles’ coaches…I have a sneaking suspicion they are not as talented as their coachees, yet still coax out improvement. Image
8/ Last week there was some great chatter from @cjchiu, @nsrosenberg, & @EmmGeezee about #MotivationalInterviewing as a framework for feedback.

Yes! This idea aligns perfectly with the #EducationalAlliance and #FeedbackAsCoaching. Image
9/ So, meet with each learner & make clear you are invested in them, & all feedback is in the spirit of continuous improvement.

Then, you need to co-create some goals. Doing this serves a few purposes:
1⃣Demonstrates Commitment
2⃣Encourages Metacognition
3⃣Engenders Trust Image
10/ Thanks folx for joining us to discuss feedback culture. Please, share & leave us a comment.

We ❤️ our #MedTwitter and #MedEd communities.

Next #TweetorialTuesday, @JenniferSpicer4 will be breaking down the components of effective feedback. Image

1/ Attending: “Sam, what is the level of bilirubin at which scleral icterus is noticeable?”

Sam thinking: [1. I can make a guess, but 2. Who cares?]

Seem like a familiar scenario? Let’s help this attending ask a better question.
2/ Whether it is in the team room, or at the bedside, asking questions of learners is a skill that requires intention, preparation, and execution. These best practices were a topic I covered a while back, so this will be a refresher.
3/ These were all the topics that were covered in that series. Each individual thread can be found here:

1/ You just admitted a patient with some really interesting pathology. You want to teach about it tomorrow on rounds. You know it is gonna be a busy day. What’s the plan?

Welcome back to #TweetorialTuesday from the @MedEdTwagTeam. Special S/O to our #MedEd & #MedTwitter friends!
2/ We are still in this “during rounds” section of our inpatient teaching block. Rounds are the CLASSIC time to drop pearls. But, doing it well takes thought and preparation.
3/ What does it mean to “drop pearls”? It refers to pearls of wisdom, and many of us think of some stately professor emeritus waxing poetic in a case conference.

But check out this definition here:

1/ Welcome back to another edition of #TweetorialTuesday from the @MedEdTwagTeam. Special S/O to our #MedEd & #MedTwitter friends!

Over the last two weeks we have laid out the WHY and the WHAT of teaching communication. Today is the HOW. Let’s go!
2/ For refreshers on the WHY and WHAT, check out these previous threads from:
@JenniferSpicer4 (WHY) –
@GStetsonMD (WHAT) –
3/ And like the previous threads, much of this content comes from this book (Chapter 16 for this thread) by @DrCalvinChou & @LauraCooleyPhD of @ACHonline. It is a foundational book that is extremely readable and applicable. Well worth your time: CommunicationRx.org

1/ We can’t always treat. We can’t always cure. But we can always support & care with good communication.

Welcome back to our #MedEd & #MedTwitter friends! Today we lay out some foundational skills of communication that you can help your learners to hone under your tutelage.
2/ As we continue to focus on inpatient teaching, we are still in the section that homes in on opportunities during rounds. Especially when rounds are done at the bedside this is a perfect time to practice communication skills.
3/ Last week, @JenniferSpicer4 helped us all to grasp WHY it is important to spend time teaching communication skills:
⬆️Health outcomes & patient experience
⬇️Cost of care
⬆️Clinician experience

1/ It is near the end of your time on inpatient service and it has been BUSY!

Spirits are high, but folks are tired.
You want to make sure rounds are high-yield, but how to focus their energy?

Welcome back #MedTwitter & #MedEd for another #TweetorialTuesday from @MedEdTwagTeam!
2/ This week, I will share tips on how to use questions to get ”the wheels turning” for your learners before rounds.

In just a few minutes, this focuses energy, engages team members in the cases they may not be following, and enhances bedside learning for everyone.
3/ Today’s 🧵 harkens back to one I posted about ”prediction questions”.

Inspiration: #SmallLearning from @LangOnCourse. It is tremendous, with a lot of useful ideas that can be applied in the classroom or clinical setting. FYI - 2nd ed just came out.

1/ Learning objectives? For serious?!? 🤔
Aren’t those for boring pre-clinical lectures?
Are they even necessary? I seem to get by just fine without them.

You may get by fine but knowing how to use learning objectives will take your game to a new level. Let's go!
2/ Welcome back, #MedEd and #MedTwitter friends, for another exciting week of learning from the @MedEdTwagTeam.

For orientation, we are still in our foundational skills section of #InpatientTeaching.
3/ Every resident who rotates with me leaves my team knowing why learning objectives (LOs) are important, how to make them, and how to apply them.

LOs provide structure to all didactic content, and IMHO, are the single most useful tool to power up your teaching.
