Trying to find opportunities to discuss challenges you face in your setting? Whether you’re getting started in your career of medical education or an experienced practitioner wanting to expand your med ed knowledge, join us for interactive discussions on a variety of topics related to teaching and learning in clinical settings. 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. How AI Readiness and AI Preparedness Among Faculty and Trainees Can Inform What We Do in Healthcare Education AI is transforming healthcare, but are we ready? Let’s come together to explore what educators and learners really know, believe, and can do with AI. By understanding AI readiness and preparedness, we can shape smarter teaching, better curricula, and policies, together, preparing the next generation of healthcare professionals for a rapidly changing world.

Managing fatigue and associated risks is a shared responsibility for all those who have a role in medical education. In this workshop, we will provide tools and strategies for educators to assist them in identifying fatigue and managing risk. Learning Objectives: After completing this workshop, participants will be able to: * Discuss Fatigue and its risk to the health system * Describe an approach to mitigate the effects of fatigue (Fatigue Risk Management) * Implement strategies to address fatigue in the learning environment.

This interactive workshop offers an introduction to Narrative Medicine principles through collaborative and experiential learning. No prior experience in Narrative Medicine is required – all are welcome! Narrative Medicine 101: An Experiential Introduction Narrative Medicine lies at the intersection of medicine and the humanities. It develops narrative competence: “the capacity to skillfully receive the accounts persons give of themselves–to recognize, absorb, interpret, and be moved to action by the stories of others” (Principles and Practices of Narrative Medicine, Charon et al). In this workshop we will explore the core features of Narrative Medicine: close reading and prompted creative writing. We will reflect on how narrative medicine can promote empathy, strengthen communication, and deepen our sense of meaning in our clinical work.

However, we all view learners’ problems differently, and whether we label a learner as a “problem” depends on many factors. This workshop provides practical strategies for recognizing, diagnosing, and working with learners with problems. Learning Objectives: By the end of the session, the participant will be able to * apply a framework to diagnose a problem learner, * identify practical strategies for working with a problem learner, and * describe how to manage reactions to difficult feedback.

ISME Praxis Series: How Salutogenic Principles Can Inform What We Do in Medical Education (November 28, 2025)

[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.
