Abstract

Medical students' transition to postgraduate training, given the complexity of new roles and responsibilities, requires the engagement of all involved stakeholders. This study aims to co-create a transition curriculum and determine the value of involving the key stakeholders throughout such transition in its design process. We conducted a mixed-methods study involving faculty/leaders (undergraduate/postgraduate), final-year medical students, and chief residents. It commenced with eight co-creation sessions (CCS), qualitative results of which were used to draft a quantitative survey sent to non-participants, followed by two consensus-building CCS with the original participants. We applied thematic analysis for transcripts of all CCS, and mean scores with standard deviations for survey analysis. We identified five themes: adaptation, authenticity, autonomy, connectedness, and continuity, embedded in the foundation of a supportive environment, to constitute a Model of Learning during Transition (MOLT). Inclusion of various stakeholders and optimizing their representation brought rich perspectives to the design process. This was reinforced through active students' participation enabling a final consensus. Bringing perspectives of key stakeholders in the transition spectrum enriches transition curricula. The proposed MOLT can provide a guide for curriculum designers to optimize the final year of undergraduate medical training in preparing students for postgraduate training with essential competencies to be trained.

13. Restoring Public Confidence in Schools through Systems Thinking.

Author

Peck, Kyle L. and Carr, Alison A.

Abstract

Public confidence in the schools and educators can be restored through the thoughtful, appropriate application of systems thinking. This process requires the destruction of traditional power structures to create vehicles for truly continuous improvement that empowers all stakeholders to create appropriate learning systems. Change happens when motivation overpowers resistance. Holding public conversations on community goals for education is essential. (19 references) (MLH)

Abstract

This paper opens by addressing the emerging need for systemic change in K-12 school systems, with consideration given to requirements for new mindsets on educational change. Given the history of less than successful attempts at educational change, the need exists for a guidance system which helps change facilitators to guide school districts and communities through a systemic change process. The paper describes the characteristics and elements of a systemic change guidance system which builds on the principles of process facilitation and systems design. It examines in detail the integral values or beliefs related to facilitation and systemic change, the types of events (sets of activities) typically needed, and the processes which form the guidance system. Also discussed is the process used to create the guidance system.

43. Critique without difference: a response to Goodman

Abstract

Jesse Goodman's critique of the school restructuring movement groups several different theories together while misunderstanding the goals and focuses of the transformationalists. He gives them a focus on technology-based over social-based change when transformationists do not even consider technology. Goodman also credits fields and theorists with only their original positions, disallowing change or growth. Another major problem in his critique is that he links the failure of specific reform programs with theoretical problems rather than considering possible resistance by traditionalists.
