ISME Praxis Series: How Salutogenic Principles Can Inform What We Do in Medical Education (November 28, 2025)
by Faculty Development 04 Mar '26

04 Mar '26

[cid:image001.png@01DC5E0F.1FCF6C40] Join the ISME Praxis Series A special series of talks hosted by Dean Nickerson highlighting opportunities for research to inform what we do in medical education Praxis is practice informed by theory, research, and reflection. The 2025-26 ISME Praxis Series features speakers from the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences who have undertaken research that informs a range of educational practices in health professions education. Each speaker will share an overview of their scholarly activities and describe how that work influences their practice as educators. Each talk is introduced by Dean Nickerson and concludes with a Q&A and conversation about how this research might apply more specifically in medical education. Guest speaker: Laura MacDonald, RDH, BScDH, MEd, PhD Dr. Laura MacDonald is an Associate Professor in the School of Dental Hygiene, Dr. Gerald Niznick College of Dentistry, Rady Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Manitoba who is committed to teaching excellence. She has been teaching with the UM since 1986 and has collaborated with many University of Manitoba colleagues to understand best practices in teaching and learning. Her scholarly research includes a focus on innovative strategies that improve teaching effectiveness and learner engagement. She is the recipient of numerous awards for her teaching and service. How Salutogenic Principles Can Inform What We Do in Medical Education The health-of-self practice standard is an ethical requirement for physicians to ensure they can safely and competently practice medicine by maintaining their own health and well-being. Salutogenesis is a model that describes how health promoting factors influence individual health and well-being, including for students on campuses. When integrated with medical school curricula, salutogenic principles can importantly support health-of-self as a competency in medicine. Find out what learners need in their learning environment to thrive, and how a salutogenic philosophy might influence the way we think about well-being in medicine. In this talk, Dr. MacDonald will share insights from her research on the concept of healthy learning within Dentistry and Dental Hygiene, and together we'll explore how this perspective can shape curriculum, teaching, and learning in ways that support the health-of-self standard for both learners and faculty in medical education.

ISME Fall Podcast Series: RIME with Dr. Teresa Cavett
by Faculty Development 27 Feb '26

27 Feb '26

[cid:image003.jpg@01DC2EE5.11E48650]Office of Innovation and Scholarship in Medical Education RIME with Dr. Teresa Cavett It seems reasonable to say that most people have heard of podcasts, and many have listened to at least one. But have you ever heard of pubcasts? A pubcast is similar to a podcast but it focuses on discussing a research project directly with the researcher(s). You might want to think of it as a cross between a podcast interview and a journal club. It gives listeners the opportunity to hear not only the research results but also discover the experiences of the researcher as they undertook this journey. With the days getting shorter, the air feeling crisper, and all manner of things becoming pumpkin-spiced once again, it’s also an opportune time to explore and learn. Well, it’s always an opportune time to explore and learn, but there’s something about the fall that heightens that feeling, don’t you think? As always, ISME is looking forward to being a part of your learning adventures. Our podcasts are back and we’re starting out this month with an exploration of RIME. This framework for fostering student progress in a clinical setting…better yet, let’s listen as Dr. Teresa Cavett shares her wisdom and experience in this area.

Stop, Talk, and Roll: Addressing Micro-aggressions in Your Clinical Teaching Practice Addressing Micro-aggressions in the clinical settings is important for both our learns and our patients. Using the micro-aggressions triangle model, this workshop will explore an approach to dealing with micro-aggressions in the moment. Learning Objectives: * Recognize instances of micro-aggressions in the clinical setting, * Describe the impact of micro-aggressions on clinical care, * Explain challenges to confronting micro-aggressions in a clinical setting, * Apply the presented frameworks to clinical cases in observed role plays.

Yet, learners report receiving little feedback during training. Furthermore, feedback that is received often does not provide assistance in changing practice or performance. This workshop will provide teachers with a framework to address these challenges. Participants will explore how coaching techniques, coupled with frequent micro-doses of feedback, will assist learners in achieving their learning goals. After this session, participants will be able to: * Describe how coaching and daily feedback micro-doses will help to facilitate learning, * Use a coaching framework in clinical teaching, * Apply principles of effective feedback to coaching conversations.

Confronting the Hidden Curriculum Teaching takes effort—and sometimes, despite our best planning, learners absorb lessons we never intended. Beyond the formal curriculum, the clinical environment conveys powerful messages through values, beliefs, role modeling, and everyday practices. This “hidden curriculum” can shape learners’ professional identities in ways that support—or undermine—what we’re trying to teach. In this 90-minute interactive workshop, we will explore strategies to recognize the hidden curriculum, reflect on its impact, and practical tools to help learners identify and respond to it. Faculty will leave with concrete approaches to make the hidden curriculum visible and turn it into a powerful teaching opportunity. Learning Objectives: 1. How hidden curriculum affects the learning environment 2. Assessing your educational context for examples of hidden curriculum 3. Strategies to address or mitigate the hidden curriculum Facilitator: Joanne Hamilton, Director, Office of Innovation and Scholarship in Medical Education, Max Rady College of Medicine Tuesday, October 21, 2025 | 1:30 PM – 2:30 PM | Zoom<https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81744491536?pwd=crxLcaoungaPMKIiIs1I6o2da7QadV.1> Click here to register<https://forms.office.com/r/1Tc6jbcYCy> or join by clicking the Zoom link below.

Well delivered feedback not only helps learners change their performance, it also promotes reflective practice and motivates future learning. This workshop will focus on strategies for giving effective feedback in a clinical setting, particularly in the context where the feedback may be difficult to give or difficult to hear. Through discussion and participation, after completing this workshop participants will be able to: * Apply a framework to sharing difficult feedback with a learner, * Respond to learner reactions to difficult feedback, * Discuss and address teacher barriers to giving difficult feedback.
