Evidence-based education
What will the future of medical education look like? What are some of the major challenges health professionals of tomorrow will face? How can we equip our learners with the necessary competencies to both address these challenges and thrive? In keeping with the overall conference vision we are keen to promote truly transformative learning within the Evidence-based education theme. Evidence-based education promotes critical thinking and better patient care by aiming to make decisions more structured and objective by better reflecting on evidence from research. Research can and has led to changes in standard treatments where practices that were once considered to be helpful actually proved to be harmful when studies were carried out. This theme explores the ways in which evidence-based education has changed learning and teaching medicine and how it better equips doctors for the healthcare of tomorrow. |
