1/ #UncleBob - on giving formative feedback on rounds. First, make it clear in your expectations discussion (day 1) that you will critique many things and label them as feedback. #MedEd @CPSolvers @uabimres
2/ Especially with new presentations, stop after the HPI and both praise the story and provide suggestions on making the presentation better. Emphasize the role of storytelling as separate from having taken a good history.
3/ Understand that when you ask questions - some are hard and some are easy. When a learner answers a hard question well - praise them and note that you are giving positive feedback.
4/ Similarly when the team has a good plan for further evaluation or treatment - praise them. Learners need "pats on the back".
If you disagree, suggest a conversation on alternate strategies.

5/ When a student or intern does a better job after having received formative feedback - praise them. Positive reinforcement is so useful for morale, especially for learners who often have imposter syndrome.
6/ When the team does not know the answer to a question that you think is important try something like this: "I'm so glad that I asked this question because I really want you to understand why this concept is so important" - and then TEACH.
7/ I know that I do more than that - very happy to answer questions and encourage my many learners who follow me on twitter to chime in on which of these ideas have helped them.
