Artificial intelligence (AI) influences many aspects of modern life and has multiple applications in the delivery of healthcare. AI is designed to mimic human capabilities including pattern recognition, data analysis, and decision-making and perform tasks more efficiently. It is capable of detecting patterns in large datasets that might elude…

Stressors inherent to training and stemming from the learning environment are associated with high rates of burnout, depression, and mental health problems in health professions students (HPS). There is evidence that disadvantaged or stigmatized groups are particularly affected. These problems not only impact students after graduation but may also…

Occupational therapy literature contains little evidence of the added value of clinical doctorate education, the professional identity of a Doctor of Occupational Therapy, or distinctions between master's-prepared and doctorate-prepared occupational therapists.

Brain dissection is typically an important part of teaching neuroscience in health professional programs. This results in the need to effectively remove brains, which is often performed in a gross anatomy laboratory in the same curriculum. The aim of this study was to determine the most effective method of brain removal based on the time required…

Reflective practice is a complex concept to adequately describe, communicate about and, ultimately, teach. Unrelieved tensions about the concept persist within the health professions education (HPE) literature owing to reflection's diverse theoretical history. Tensions extend from the most basic, e.g., what is reflection and what are its contents,…

Increasing the health care work force is critical to underserved communities. Unfortunately, students in these areas lack accessibility to the clinical experiences needed to get an introductory understanding of careers in health care.

Research, however, points to an existing shortage of geriatric-trained professionals in Ghana; a problem that can be addressed with the education and training of…

Objective: In this study, we sought to assess the changes in the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of athletic training program (ATP) and nurse practitioner (NP) graduate students before and after an acute care interprofessional education (IPE) workshop. Design and Setting: This was a descriptive KAP survey to be taken by participants…

This chapter introduces the learning analytics as a catalyst to transform data utilization and bolster support for the scholarship of teaching and learning.

Mindset is defined as an individual's beliefs about their inherent characteristics and whether or not those characteristics can be developed.
