- 00:02To be part of the medical education series.
- 00:04And yes, as you just heard,
- 00:06we are recording this session.
- 00:09It's been helpful for others who
- 00:11are not able to make it at this time
- 00:13to be able to visit the recording.
- 00:15So just to inform you that that's happening.
- 00:19So the series is directed by
- 00:21doctors Dana Dunn and Andreas
- 00:22Martin who are both on today.
- 00:25They're both faculty
- 00:26associates of the center,
- 00:27and we have a special treat today because
- 00:30they're both involved in this session.
- 00:32So Doctor Martin will actually
- 00:34be moderating the discussion,
- 00:35largely by just making sure that
- 00:38he's keeping track of anything that
- 00:40you might place in the chat box.
- 00:42So any questions or comments,
- 00:44you're welcome to put those in chat and
- 00:46he'll make sure that they get attention.
- 00:49Doctor Dunn is our presenter today,
- 00:51so we're very lucky she's going
- 00:53to be presenting on the topic of
- 00:55setting goals in medical education.
- 00:57So just a little bit of background to
- 00:59what Dana has done within the medical school.
- 01:02She's worn many hats.
- 01:04She's associate Professor of Medicine
- 01:06in the section of Infectious Diseases,
- 01:09and as such she works clinically
- 01:11at the Nathan Smith Clinic,
- 01:13which provides HIV AIDS treatment and
- 01:16care and HIV prevention for adults in
- 01:20her department of Internal Medicine.
- 01:21She's Associate chair of Education
- 01:23and Academic Affairs,
- 01:25offering teaching faculty support
- 01:28and resources.
- 01:29In fact,
- 01:29it was through that role that she
- 01:32initially presented a Med Ed Faculty
- 01:34Development series for those who
- 01:36teach in her department That's
- 01:38evolved into this Yes series that
- 01:40she and Doctor Martin Co direct for
- 01:44undergraduate Medical Education.
- 01:45Doctor Dunn is director of the
- 01:47brand new Longitudinal Coaching
- 01:49program that matches small groups
- 01:51of medical students with coaches
- 01:53who stay with them for the duration
- 01:56of their medical education careers.
- 01:59The program uses a Master
- 02:01Adaptive Learning model that,
- 02:02if you're interested in
- 02:04learning more about that,
- 02:05Dana can certainly tell you about
- 02:07that in in at some future time.
- 02:10But if I can also use this
- 02:12opportunity as a plug,
- 02:13save the date on February 22nd.
- 02:16One of the key proponents of
- 02:18the Master Adaptive Model is
- 02:19going to be with us by Zoom.
- 02:21So mark that on your calendars.
- 02:23February 22nd for Graduate Medical
- 02:27Education Doctor Dunn's Associate
- 02:30Designated Institutional Officer,
- 02:32working closely with Doctor Steve Hewitt to
- 02:35oversee all of Yale's medical GME programs.
- 02:38So as I said,
- 02:40many hats and major hats.
- 02:42There are many more
- 02:43contributions that I could list,
- 02:45but that would take us the whole hour.
- 02:47So I don't want to do that,
- 02:49but I do want to take the opportunity
- 02:52to say that Doctor Dunn has recently,
- 02:55very recently received an award
- 02:57from the Connecticut chapter of
- 03:00the American College of Physicians.
- 03:02She's received the George Thornton
- 03:04Teaching Award for a career for,
- 03:06quote,
- 03:07a career distinguished by involvement
- 03:10and excellence in medical education.
- 03:12So as you now hear,
- 03:14you're in very good hands for
- 03:17the next 50 minutes
- 03:18or so. Doctor Dana Dunn.
- 03:20Oh, thanks so much.
- 03:21That's nice of you.
- 03:23Welcome, everybody.
- 03:23Dana Dunn, you know who I am.
- 03:26I'd love to know who you are
- 03:28outside of your name tiles.
- 03:30So if you could just like in the
- 03:32chat put if you're teaching in GME
- 03:36or or UME and if you're teaching an
- 03:38undergraduate medical education.
- 03:39If you're pre clerkship preclinic,
- 03:41no pre clerkship education like
- 03:43in the 1st 18 months or if you're
- 03:45in the clinical And if you're
- 03:47GME do you do like residents or
- 03:49fellows just so I can get an idea
- 03:51So just put that in the chat if
- 03:53you wouldn't mind like where.
- 03:54Because in the context of setting
- 03:56goals I would love to know a
- 03:58little bit more about everybody
- 04:01what what they're thinking about
- 04:05when they're setting goals.
- 04:07So any that we have Chris
- 04:11Anki who does everything.
- 04:16UMEGME residents and fellows
- 04:20a lot of
- 04:24GMEGMEPA online. Awesome.
- 04:25OK, keep those coming in
- 04:27because I want to have this,
- 04:29make sure that I make this feel
- 04:31relevant to everybody because it really
- 04:33ideally will be feeling relevant to
- 04:36everybody as we'll discover and find
- 04:39out together that you know goals.
- 04:42Setting goals and thinking about
- 04:44goals is a really major part of
- 04:46the mastery learning cycle that
- 04:48starts like with why are they here?
- 04:50And then, you know,
- 04:51we observe them and then we give
- 04:53them feedback and set individual
- 04:54action plans for them to improve.
- 04:56So hopefully it's going to be
- 04:58feeling relevant to everybody.
- 04:59But I was going to try to make
- 05:01some specific call outs and Andres
- 05:04will monitor the chat if people
- 05:06are kind of wanting more examples
- 05:08in your particular area.
- 05:10So this is the CME code.
- 05:13Linda put it in there, 38933,
- 05:16she'll probably put that in again.
- 05:20So it would be remiss of me to have a
- 05:22session on communication of goals if
- 05:24I don't tell you the goals of the session.
- 05:27So by the end of this session,
- 05:29I'm hoping you're going to be able to
- 05:32differentiate some like terminology that
- 05:34this comes from the Stanford Faculty
- 05:36Development Center conceptualization
- 05:38about how to be thinking about goals.
- 05:40So they use some terminology
- 05:42of ends and means goals.
- 05:43You'll probably recognize some synonyms,
- 05:45but I want you to recognize the
- 05:47difference in between the two of those.
- 05:49And also,
- 05:49we're gonna spend the majority of
- 05:51the time thinking about how we can be
- 05:53more effective in expressing goals,
- 05:54including using verbs explicitly
- 05:57and relevant statements,
- 05:59and we'll have a little practice with that.
- 06:01But I'm not putting you in
- 06:02breakout rooms to do that.
- 06:04Never fear if you're chewing
- 06:06or otherwise just kind of being
- 06:09able to listen in the background.
- 06:10I don't want you to feel like you
- 06:12can't stay on and participate.
- 06:15So how we're going to do that?
- 06:17You know what will be the means to the end.
- 06:19I'm going to give you some little
- 06:21mini lecture that defines some of
- 06:23these terms and gives you some examples.
- 06:25Then depending on how much,
- 06:27how many questions you might have about that,
- 06:29we might be able to watch a 3 minute
- 06:31video which is a clinical example of
- 06:33if you were watching a learner in a
- 06:35clinical situation might you what
- 06:37kind of things you might think about
- 06:38for goals and how you might express them.
- 06:41And then we have a,
- 06:43a worksheet and Linda's just putting
- 06:46in the chat now a handout that you
- 06:48can follow along that has some of
- 06:50these things so you don't feel like
- 06:51you have to take a lot of notes.
- 06:52And then part of it'll you'll also
- 06:55use towards the end to think about
- 06:57almost having a deliverable for
- 06:59yourself of like starting to think
- 07:01about goals that you often or
- 07:03objectives that you often have in
- 07:05your pre clerkship or clerkship
- 07:07or GME setting and how to maybe
- 07:10use some of the tools today
- 07:12to refine those and make those
- 07:14more effective for yourself.
- 07:16So does everybody did you put the
- 07:19handout in there Linda. Awesome.
- 07:22So at the top the you'll see that
- 07:25there's a definition of communicating
- 07:26goals and I'm I've put it here the
- 07:29establishment and explicit expression
- 07:31for the teachers and or learners
- 07:34expectations for the learners.
- 07:36So we're really talking about
- 07:37goals we have for our learners,
- 07:39not despite our learners,
- 07:41but really for our learners.
- 07:43So in the lay definition of this
- 07:45might be why are our learners here?
- 07:47And this should be why this should be
- 07:50very motivating 'cause this is really
- 07:52about like what we're all doing.
- 07:53We're here and hoping that we
- 07:55have a goal that the knowledge,
- 07:57goals, skill, goal, attitude goals.
- 08:00Why are learners here?
- 08:02They're really here to learn this
- 08:04content and there's a lot of
- 08:06interactions when you're thinking
- 08:07about content between teacher,
- 08:09what you might goals you might have for them.
- 08:11Learners have their own goals.
- 08:13We're going to talk about that.
- 08:15But then you see these kind of layers
- 08:17around this triadic graphic here,
- 08:21that the goals might you might
- 08:24have your goals,
- 08:25but the goals also might be overlaid
- 08:27upon you by the office of curriculum or
- 08:30the course director for the course or
- 08:32the clerkship director or the OR the,
- 08:35you know,
- 08:35a CGME and the residency
- 08:38program requirements.
- 08:38So some of these goals for teaching
- 08:41knowledge killer attitudes might
- 08:43be coming from you or they might be
- 08:46coming from societies or schools.
- 08:48So there are a lot of layers that can
- 08:50affect the context about how we have
- 08:52to think about goals and how much
- 08:55variability we have over them or or control.
- 08:59But there's really the content is looming
- 09:02large here about why our learners are here.
- 09:05And I'll say at least in
- 09:07the Department of Medicine,
- 09:08our teaching evaluations are organized,
- 09:12that students,
- 09:13residents,
- 09:13and fellows evaluate us by our learning
- 09:16climate and our ability to teach
- 09:18and our ability to get feedback,
- 09:20etcetera.
- 09:20But we have a a question about
- 09:23communicating goals,
- 09:23and this is the one we do the worst AT.
- 09:25And I think that maybe some people
- 09:27have felt like they just don't
- 09:29realize that the learners value
- 09:32goals that they really do want.
- 09:35It really decreases anxiety for the
- 09:38learners to know explicitly what you
- 09:40want because you really do have goals,
- 09:42even if you don't say them,
- 09:43you do know that you want things you
- 09:46expect for them to know and to do and
- 09:48to behave professionally, etcetera.
- 09:50So This is why I'm hoping this is
- 09:52a fairly motivational activity to
- 09:55be thinking about getting better
- 09:57at because goals.
- 09:59And you know,
- 10:00we're using the term goal a little
- 10:02bit vaguely in here as kind of
- 10:05synonymous with some other terms
- 10:07like learning objectives or
- 10:09educational objectives or you know,
- 10:10outcomes etcetera.
- 10:11They're for purposes of our discussion today,
- 10:15we're going to use them
- 10:16a bit interchangeably,
- 10:17but they really help your learners
- 10:19know what to master.
- 10:20You know, if you have a goal
- 10:21for a session and pre, you know,
- 10:22in your anatomy course or you have a
- 10:24goal at the beginning of the clerkship,
- 10:25you have a goal at the
- 10:27beginning of your residency.
- 10:28You know, if you don't have a goal,
- 10:30part of part of the mastery learning cycle
- 10:31is having learners where they're going,
- 10:33where are they going, what,
- 10:35what am I supposed to know
- 10:37by the end of this time?
- 10:38So then it helps you by them
- 10:40knowing what the goal is, you know,
- 10:41starting with the end in mind.
- 10:42It helps you know what content
- 10:44and other things that you need
- 10:46to provide the learner for,
- 10:48for them to be able to reach their goal.
- 10:50And then there's a shared mental
- 10:52model that seems very fair to them,
- 10:54that there's a shared idea of
- 10:56how you're going to assess them.
- 10:58So if you were to just start giving them,
- 11:00you know,
- 11:01a course on microbiology and not tell
- 11:03them what the goals are or what you
- 11:05expected the learner to know at the end,
- 11:06and then you gave them a test
- 11:08at the end that might feel very
- 11:11uncomfortable or challenging and
- 11:12potentially not fair for them.
- 11:14Similarly,
- 11:14in the clinical arena,
- 11:16at the end of the rotation,
- 11:17you give them feedback that they didn't,
- 11:19you know,
- 11:19present with this kind of efficiency or
- 11:21they didn't write their notes by this
- 11:23time or they didn't do some sort of thing.
- 11:26Then you don't have the shared mental
- 11:28model that's very explicit about what
- 11:31you want them to do and that they
- 11:32understand and can contribute to that.
- 11:34So this is hopefully feeling motivating
- 11:37that and the relevant statement for why.
- 11:40By the end of this hour,
- 11:42I'm hoping that we will meet our
- 11:44learning objectives of you feeling more
- 11:46effective in in communicating goals.
- 11:48All right.
- 11:49So we're going to talk about three things.
- 11:52We'll talk.
- 11:53We're going to start talking
- 11:54about types of goals and this is
- 11:55where we're going to talk about
- 11:56ends goals and means goals.
- 11:57And I'll define those brief word on timing.
- 12:00And then we're going to get into
- 12:02kind of the key components of how we
- 12:04can get better in expressing goal.
- 12:06And and please interrupt at any time.
- 12:09I am not seeing the chat actively,
- 12:11but I'm trusting that Andres can
- 12:14decide if he wants to interrupt me.
- 12:17All right.
- 12:18So the first thing is just this or
- 12:21for your consideration A terminology.
- 12:23So you can consider two types of goals.
- 12:26Ends goals and means goals.
- 12:27So an end goal would be AC if
- 12:29you have a learner here at the
- 12:31beginning T1 like time one.
- 12:32This could be at the beginning of
- 12:34grand rounds talk or at the beginning
- 12:37of the clerkship block or the
- 12:39beginning of some you know internship.
- 12:41Could really depend.
- 12:42Some of you are here thinking
- 12:44about goals for a whole course,
- 12:45some of you are here thinking
- 12:47about goals for a
- 12:48teaching sessions.
- 12:48So whatever you're picturing right now,
- 12:51the, the, the, if you have a learner
- 12:53that's at time one, your end goal,
- 12:55is it really at the end of that time,
- 12:58time 2, we'll call, you know,
- 12:59what do you want for your learner?
- 13:01You know what?
- 13:02What is your goal for the end of that time?
- 13:04You know it could be just a knowledge goal.
- 13:05It could be an outcome goal.
- 13:08What What is your thought at the end?
- 13:10And we're gonna be talking about
- 13:12how to get better and verbalizing
- 13:13that but it's what you're hoping
- 13:15for them by the end of the session.
- 13:17However you define that means goals
- 13:19are the what are the educational
- 13:23activities that you're gonna recommend
- 13:25or that they can come up with that are
- 13:27gonna help them meet that goal right.
- 13:29So ends is where do they gonna be
- 13:31at the at the end and and the means
- 13:33goals are how what are the activities
- 13:35So they should be action verbs what
- 13:37are the activities that they're gonna
- 13:39do to be able to meet that end goal.
- 13:41Now if some of you just are doing a
- 13:44end goal for thinking about learning
- 13:47objectives for a talk like by the end
- 13:50of this session I want you to be able
- 13:52to articulate goals or I want you to
- 13:54define ends goals and means goals.
- 13:56The educational activity might
- 13:57be pay attention,
- 13:59listen to me and that's the activity.
- 14:02Or it may be that I'm going to have
- 14:04you watch a video and it may be that
- 14:06I'm going to have you do a worksheet.
- 14:08But some just content heavy things
- 14:10might be just and so I'm going to help
- 14:12you get there because I'm going to I'm
- 14:14going to teach you with my words So
- 14:16I'm gonna just give you some examples.
- 14:18So here's for example you know we
- 14:21can but we can bunch domains of of
- 14:24of goals into knowledge skill and
- 14:27attitudes and so you can imagine
- 14:29any of you on here you could have
- 14:32your own knowledge goal I'm sure
- 14:33like Andres Martin might have some
- 14:35child psychiatry knowledge goal.
- 14:38John and Candela might have something
- 14:40about a skill of running a focus group.
- 14:42So just as an example,
- 14:45let's Chris,
- 14:46say we have a cardiologist on here
- 14:48or maybe Chris think he wants his
- 14:51student to understand heart failure.
- 14:53So I want you to be able to
- 14:55understand heart failure.
- 14:55We're going to come back about maybe
- 14:57why that verb is not the greatest,
- 14:59but
- 15:01what would be some mean what
- 15:03what could that learner do to
- 15:05be able to get to that goal?
- 15:06So you know, Chris might recommend you know,
- 15:10read this chapter, you know,
- 15:11go to up to date, read this thing,
- 15:14do that rotation, you know,
- 15:16go to the SIM center and do that
- 15:18simulation and get feedback on it.
- 15:19So you can see that you've
- 15:21got these action verbs, read,
- 15:22rotate, do a simulation.
- 15:24And we really like to have ideally a
- 15:27couple of different means goals because
- 15:29learners sometimes learn differently and
- 15:30maybe they want to have it be hands on.
- 15:32Maybe sometimes people would
- 15:34rather watch a video.
- 15:35Maybe they need options because they
- 15:37can't do the CC rotation because it's
- 15:40booked up or not available to them.
- 15:42Maybe they need something other
- 15:44than simulation because they don't
- 15:46have a SIM center where they are,
- 15:48so just being able to have or or maybe
- 15:50the first means goal that you got
- 15:52them didn't help them meet their ends.
- 15:54It really wasn't enough.
- 15:56So coming up with brainstorming a variety
- 15:58of activities to help them a skill goal.
- 16:02Similarly,
- 16:02like a skill could be a communication
- 16:05skill or it could be a psychomotor skill,
- 16:07it could be a procedural skill.
- 16:09So place a central line.
- 16:10I want you to be able to place a
- 16:12central line and so how can you do that?
- 16:14Here's some examples again here
- 16:17and then attitudes.
- 16:18I see Andre's got your your hand raised.
- 16:21I'll just say this last thing,
- 16:24an end goal might be be patient centered.
- 16:27I want you to be patient centered.
- 16:28I want you to be whatever you know
- 16:32learner centered or be respectful and
- 16:35here's some some potential activities
- 16:38here that you might be thinking about
- 16:40interviewing a patient getting feedback,
- 16:43reading the mirrors criteria.
- 16:44Andres did you want to ask something
- 16:52not me but Chris Sankey has a very good
- 16:54comment that I think we could expand on.
- 16:56So Chris, do you want to share
- 16:57with the group and with Dana.
- 17:02Oh sure, I I I'm just merely under score.
- 17:06The I I think the essentiality so
- 17:10to speak of of actually making the
- 17:13difference between sort of ends
- 17:15goals and means goals. Because in my
- 17:18experience with both you and me
- 17:19and GME learners, if you sit
- 17:21down and ask the learner to identify
- 17:24their for whatever experience
- 17:26you're about to start,
- 17:30I I, I have invariably gotten knowledge
- 17:33based ends goals like I want to
- 17:35be better at EKGS, I want to be.
- 17:38I want to understand antibiotics
- 17:40and like they they tend to sort
- 17:43of make sense at face value.
- 17:45But in my experience,
- 17:46it's a recipe for total lack of success
- 17:50in in really achieving and meaningful.
- 17:53Because at the end of the experience,
- 17:56you sit back down, you say,
- 17:57I don't know anything more about EKGS.
- 17:58Do you feel antibiotics and you get sort
- 18:01of some form of a shoulder shrug. So
- 18:04if you're explicit about the difference
- 18:05between ends goals and means goals,
- 18:07you can really have some meaningful
- 18:09discussions about different
- 18:10domains like behaviors, skills,
- 18:14attitudes and specific behaviors that can
- 18:18more effectively tracked and achieved.
- 18:20Yeah, yes. And I'm setting myself
- 18:23up here to be using some poor ends
- 18:25goals verbs here of understanding
- 18:28'cause that's not very behavioral,
- 18:30it's not very observable.
- 18:32So we'll talk about how we can help
- 18:34either when we're expressing or when
- 18:36we're learners are coming to us with
- 18:38goals that they're expressing to help
- 18:39them use some some some behaviors that
- 18:42I'll I'll talk about after we talk
- 18:45about timing to help it be less vague.
- 18:48But I just wanted to make the hopefully
- 18:50you're getting just the the idea here,
- 18:51but the definition between
- 18:52ends goals and a mean goal.
- 18:54Because some people to
- 18:56Chris's point are very endsy.
- 18:58And you know you're you're an advisor
- 19:00to somebody or you might be a coach
- 19:01to somebody or you might be a program
- 19:03director and people your learner will
- 19:05come in and say I want to be able to get
- 19:08better and teaching clinical reasoning.
- 19:09And a lot of us would just be like,
- 19:12OK, good luck with that.
- 19:13That sounds like a great goal,
- 19:14but we're not so mindful about like how,
- 19:18how are you going to do that?
- 19:19I've got this great book,
- 19:20Teaching in the Hospital, Chapter 3,
- 19:22How to Teach Clinical Reasoning.
- 19:24Here's like an app on your phone that
- 19:26you can use for clinical reasoning.
- 19:27Medicine tool kit.
- 19:28I mean,
- 19:29sometimes they figure it out,
- 19:30but a lot of times they don't and they
- 19:33need us to be thinking about the means.
- 19:35Conversely,
- 19:35a lot of times we can be very meansy.
- 19:39We're like draw that blood tote that
- 19:41bail you know call that family and
- 19:43the students might be thinking or
- 19:45go to that workshop and be prepared
- 19:47for the to interact with your peers.
- 19:49They might be thinking that you know
- 19:51what does that have to do with anything.
- 19:52And if you could say because because
- 19:54that ties back to like what it is
- 19:57to be patient centered or how to
- 19:58take care of the whole team or how
- 20:00to demonstrate communication skills
- 20:02that you're gonna be able to you know
- 20:04need to draw on as you continue to
- 20:06have professional identity formation.
- 20:08So making sure that we're we're
- 20:11not how they relate to each other
- 20:14similarly like you could might
- 20:16think that the anatomists.
- 20:18Think that they're only in the knowledge.
- 20:19They only have knowledge as a a goal
- 20:22and and you know they might recognize
- 20:24that they could have attitude goals
- 20:27in the dissection lab around being
- 20:31respectful or being team members.
- 20:34So I think it's it's useful to always
- 20:36do a a survey of ourselves to be broad
- 20:40and think about ends and means goals.
- 20:43I'm going to,
- 20:43we're going to come back to
- 20:45refining this a little bit,
- 20:46but I just wanted to make sure
- 20:48we did those definitions.
- 20:50OK, a brief word on timing,
- 20:52thinking about goals,
- 20:53so you can be thinking about goals before,
- 20:56during and after.
- 20:57I would think a lot of us who are
- 21:01doing a talk or we're doing a
- 21:04course or you know even those of
- 21:06us who might teach frequently and
- 21:08you're kind of going into repeated
- 21:10clinical sessioning probably
- 21:11often have a repertoire of of
- 21:13goals in our heads ahead of time.
- 21:15And certainly before you plan any
- 21:17curriculum or you plan any talk,
- 21:19you do need to think about goals
- 21:21ahead because that as our three
- 21:23main motivating goal reasons
- 21:25for goals helps us know what to
- 21:27how to plan our teaching.
- 21:29You're really starting with the end in
- 21:31mind what do we really want to know.
- 21:33So we do a lot of goal thinking before,
- 21:36but sometimes it comes to us during.
- 21:39And I think this is not limited to clinical,
- 21:42but a lot of us who are doing clinical
- 21:44teaching can recognize that while
- 21:46we're watching someone present or
- 21:48while we're watching the resident
- 21:50lead the team or while we're watching
- 21:53a student attempt a physical exam.
- 21:56A goal comes to us based on our
- 21:59direct observation that, you know,
- 22:01there could be a goal around, you know,
- 22:03a knowledge, skill or an attitude.
- 22:05Or maybe even after, you know,
- 22:07you recognize that you had a kind
- 22:10of goals set up because you thought
- 22:12your learner was at LL1, you know,
- 22:14kind of level.
- 22:15And so you had some goals and
- 22:17some teaching plan.
- 22:18And then you you went into it and you
- 22:20realized that your learners all knew
- 22:22a lot more and that they were at L4
- 22:24and that you need to do a doctor.
- 22:26You were at L -, 2.
- 22:28Oh,
- 22:28OK,
- 22:29you're going to see her because
- 22:32they really weren't able to.
- 22:35They they were behind or maybe they didn't
- 22:37have some fundamental foundational content.
- 22:39So you might have to just based
- 22:42on where your learners are,
- 22:43what you're noticing etcetera.
- 22:46So just to remind you that goals can
- 22:51come at you at different times based on
- 22:55direct observation in your experience.
- 22:58So what we're going to get into now,
- 22:59and this is we're going to drop
- 23:01one more hand out into the chat,
- 23:03is we've talked about kind of
- 23:05ends goals and means goals that,
- 23:07you know,
- 23:08we're motivated to get better at this
- 23:10because it's really so fundamental
- 23:12for why our learners are here.
- 23:14Thought about kind of the timing,
- 23:15but how can we get better
- 23:17at expressing our goals?
- 23:18So we're gonna go over you using
- 23:21verbs to to help us express goals
- 23:24that would be specific and observable.
- 23:27And a lot of you are probably familiar
- 23:29with SMART goals and you're gonna be
- 23:31hearing probably some synonyms in there.
- 23:32So we're gonna talk about
- 23:35using verbs more deliberately,
- 23:37and then we're going to talk about
- 23:40using relevant statements and
- 23:42expected levels of competence.
- 23:44So I'm not going to probably.
- 23:46Does everybody have the
- 23:48handout that has the verbs?
- 23:50Were you able to put that in there,
- 23:51Linda? Awesome. All right,
- 23:55so if you can open that.
- 23:58Oh, I forgot that I made a slide on it.
- 23:59It should look like this.
- 24:01So this is something you're
- 24:02going to want to keep close by.
- 24:04If you're somebody who has
- 24:05to give a lot of talks,
- 24:06or you run courses and you're
- 24:08like or people are always asking
- 24:09you for your learning objectives,
- 24:11it's always good to have some verbs.
- 24:13You can probably find this
- 24:14online in a number of places,
- 24:15but on the top you've got some
- 24:18knowledge verbs and from left to right
- 24:20in the screen that you're seeing,
- 24:23you can see that they get
- 24:24cognitively more complex.
- 24:25Recall all the way up to application.
- 24:28So using verbs wisely means
- 24:30for your ends goals.
- 24:32You want to make sure that you're
- 24:34matching really kind of the level that
- 24:36you're expecting to your learner.
- 24:38So you can see that if you've
- 24:40got an early learner,
- 24:41maybe you're not having to
- 24:43manage heart failure yet,
- 24:44but maybe they need they would
- 24:46be able to define heart failure,
- 24:48or maybe they would be able to
- 24:49list the causes of heart failure.
- 24:51So understanding heart failure is
- 24:54not an observable behavior and we
- 24:57can be more effective in expressing
- 24:59our goals if we use verbs that match
- 25:02what we really can observe and what
- 25:05we expect that they would be able to do.
- 25:08So like to Chris's example of an EKG,
- 25:11if the resident,
- 25:12if the goal comes from the resident
- 25:14saying I want to get better at EKG,
- 25:16you can help them.
- 25:17Like what?
- 25:18Do you want to be able to really like,
- 25:20compare and contrast just
- 25:22an atrial tachycardia?
- 25:24You know this atrial arrhythmia
- 25:26to the other atrial arrhythma?
- 25:28Or do you want to really be able to
- 25:31interpret a complex EKG, Et cetera?
- 25:35So using the knowledge,
- 25:37and I have a couple of examples for
- 25:39these are good for your knowledge verbs.
- 25:41The skill verbs are a little more
- 25:44sparse and you could probably
- 25:46still come up with your own,
- 25:47but for psychomotor skills or
- 25:50for communication skills,
- 25:51you can see some examples here
- 25:53that you could use to express
- 25:56yourself more precisely.
- 25:57And I really like the attitude
- 25:59ones here 'cause sometimes this is
- 26:01really can help you and I'll I'll
- 26:03give you an example in in our table
- 26:06that I had previously filled out.
- 26:08But if you have somebody who's showing
- 26:10up late for teaching rounds all the time,
- 26:12or they're for them to be able
- 26:15to attach value to educational
- 26:19time or adhere to professional,
- 26:21you know, responsibilities,
- 26:22etcetera,
- 26:23that can be useful for you to
- 26:26have these these verbs.
- 26:28But verbs can help you feel like
- 26:31you're using specific asking,
- 26:33specific behaviors that you can
- 26:35observe that match their level.
- 26:37So I'm just starting to kind
- 26:39of fill in here to refine my
- 26:41end school that if I have a
- 26:44P GY1 maybe if they want to know
- 26:45about heart failure we would have a
- 26:47a verb that matches that compared
- 26:49to maybe a first year Med student.
- 26:51Same with the central line or a
- 26:53skill that they would be able to
- 26:55place one as opposed to a sub intern
- 26:57might just be able to assemble the
- 27:00you know or or list the parts.
- 27:02And if I'm talking about an an
- 27:06attitude goal of filling out your
- 27:08teaching evaluations on time,
- 27:10maybe through a conversation
- 27:11really that that you know,
- 27:13maybe people aren't filling out
- 27:15their teaching evaluation because
- 27:16it's a time management skill.
- 27:18So sometimes there is a differential
- 27:19diagnosis for what you might be seeing.
- 27:22You have to make sure is it
- 27:23a skill or an attitude.
- 27:24But if you feel it's an attitude,
- 27:25being able to, say,
- 27:26placing value on teaching evaluations
- 27:28brings up a whole different means
- 27:30goal list than a time management
- 27:33skill of finding a time to fill out
- 27:35your teaching evaluations would so
- 27:38place value on teaching evaluation.
- 27:40So hopefully you're you're
- 27:41recognizing that the ends goals can
- 27:44be more refined and you can be more
- 27:47effective in expressing yourself by
- 27:49thinking about verbs that match.
- 27:51Another way that you can be more effective
- 27:55in expressing it is explaining why.
- 27:58Why do I want you to be able to do that?
- 28:00Why should you be able to do that?
- 28:03And I started this conversation with saying,
- 28:05like,
- 28:05why should you know,
- 28:06my ends goal for you on about this session
- 28:08is the finance and means goals of blah,
- 28:11blah, blah.
- 28:12And then I said because because
- 28:15there's these three things,
- 28:17these three things that
- 28:18should really motivate you.
- 28:20It, it does this,
- 28:21it serves that, it does that.
- 28:23So maybe that resonated with you.
- 28:25So if I said, you know,
- 28:27let's see who's on the call,
- 28:29Michael Green or Rob Homer,
- 28:31I'm like, I want you to listen
- 28:33to my travel clinic talk.
- 28:35And and Michael Green might be like,
- 28:36I I get so bored with travel.
- 28:38And I'm like,
- 28:39because you know,
- 28:41so maybe it's going to be on the
- 28:42boards because you're going to
- 28:43go to Costa Rica and you're going
- 28:45to be really mad that you didn't
- 28:46pay attention to know whether you
- 28:48should take malaria prophylaxis
- 28:49or your aunt's going to call you
- 28:51and they're going to want to know.
- 28:52So why? Why do I?
- 28:55Why should you want to pay attention?
- 28:57That can be also really motivating
- 29:00to tell a first year intern who's
- 29:03a dermatology resident that they
- 29:05need to learn how to read the EKG.
- 29:08They might say why,
- 29:09and maybe you have to have a
- 29:11little thing in your pocket,
- 29:13and if you can't come up with one,
- 29:14maybe it's not a relevant goal.
- 29:17So that that's all I'm going to say
- 29:19about that, relevant statements.
- 29:22Have a little elevator pitch
- 29:24in your pocket about why.
- 29:25Another thing that can be
- 29:27really super useful,
- 29:28and this is along the lines of the verbs that
- 29:30help people feel like it's more concrete,
- 29:32is really being explicit about
- 29:34the level of competence.
- 29:36So you know how I want you to be
- 29:38able to do this? Super, you know,
- 29:41this triple lumen catheter or a
- 29:45central line, aided or unaided.
- 29:47You know, I want you to be able to
- 29:49read these Ekgs perfectly, or 50%.
- 29:51I want you to be able to present, you know,
- 29:54as opposed to I want you to present better.
- 29:57You're like I want you to be able to
- 30:00present a new H&P using this framework
- 30:05in 5 minutes with minimal notes by
- 30:08the end of week and then by week
- 30:10two you're going to have no notes.
- 30:13You know, that doesn't leave a lot
- 30:15of room for the student not really
- 30:17being clear about what you want.
- 30:19So you can also improve your effectiveness
- 30:23in expressing goals by using verbs.
- 30:26Any Any questions here?
- 30:29Goals and objectives?
- 30:30Yeah,
- 30:32Scott, I would use them synonymously here.
- 30:36We're just using that goals
- 30:37as a kind of a general term,
- 30:40so you can use them synonymously for the
- 30:42purposes of ends and means, etcetera.
- 30:43The last thing I would say that a
- 30:46lot of us are not so great at is
- 30:48like we might feel all empowered to
- 30:50talk about goals at the beginning.
- 30:51This is maybe more for people who've
- 30:54got longitudinal relationship or
- 30:56you're clinically with somebody
- 30:57as opposed to a lecture.
- 30:59You don't necessarily have
- 31:00to repeat goals periodically.
- 31:02But if you've had a goal discussion and
- 31:05to be able to come back and say how
- 31:07are you doing and meeting that goal if.
- 31:10Because if they're not do you
- 31:11need a different means goal?
- 31:13Do you need to be kind of brainstorming
- 31:16about or did they that they accomplish
- 31:18that goal and you can now come up with
- 31:21another one and you can really make
- 31:23progress in these in these periods
- 31:25of time that you're with people.
- 31:27So lastly before we watch a quick video,
- 31:32you know we've been kind of talking
- 31:34about being very teacher centered
- 31:36at this point but we do also want
- 31:39to be learner centered.
- 31:40So what can be,
- 31:41what can the learner centered
- 31:43part be and like how where is the
- 31:45Co creation of goals happening?
- 31:46So I would say in two areas,
- 31:48because you do have goals.
- 31:50I mean,
- 31:51even if you have goals that can
- 31:53stand by themselves because you know
- 31:54that there's we're going to evaluate
- 31:56them or there's going to be a,
- 31:58there's going to be a test.
- 32:00There's there's graduation requirements.
- 32:02There's definitely things that
- 32:04are going to be outside of the OP
- 32:06thing for the student to opt out
- 32:08of or the resident to opt out of.
- 32:10But for the resident to and student
- 32:13to to buy in and understand you
- 32:15the goals that you have for them.
- 32:17Maybe there's some negotiation.
- 32:18Maybe you're going to need to
- 32:19have another relevant statement.
- 32:21If they don't get,
- 32:21if they don't buy into your goal
- 32:25and then you can ask for their goals also,
- 32:27right? So you can.
- 32:28It's an important part.
- 32:30You have your goals.
- 32:31Their goals don't get to trump yours,
- 32:33but for you to find out about theirs
- 32:35so that you they can intermix,
- 32:37you can prioritize them,
- 32:38you can help them be more specific
- 32:41and develop their own SMART goals.
- 32:43You can help them brainstorm their
- 32:45own means goals and you can follow
- 32:47them so that in that way you
- 32:49are kind of Co creating Andres.
- 32:53Yes,
- 32:56Scott Casper, who is frequent attendee,
- 33:00good to see you, Scott.
- 33:01He asked a question that
- 33:03that I had in my mind.
- 33:04So maybe you can expand,
- 33:05but can you explain any difference
- 33:08between goals and objectives?
- 33:09I know that you and I talked about it.
- 33:13I mean I think just for the
- 33:15purposes of today, I mean you
- 33:17can have educational objectives,
- 33:19you get objectives for yourself as
- 33:21a teacher, you can have educate
- 33:23objectives for your learner.
- 33:25So I think just for today, I would,
- 33:28I would just love for people just
- 33:30to feel like we're using goals
- 33:33and objectives synonymously.
- 33:37I mean, in other context, goals
- 33:40tend to be more
- 33:42all-encompassing and can be broken
- 33:44down into smaller objectives.
- 33:47But I agree for this purpose
- 33:51they could be interchangeable.
- 33:57Awesome. All right.
- 34:00Are there any questions to this point?
- 34:02So you're motivated,
- 34:03you're motivated to think of that
- 34:05goals are serving an important purpose.
- 34:08So why are our learners here
- 34:12that there's certainly a lot of
- 34:14stakeholders that are involved,
- 34:15but you're you're picturing your your
- 34:18main educational role as a course
- 34:20director or as a as a clinical supervisor.
- 34:23And that in that context you can be
- 34:25thinking about goals for your learners
- 34:27and that you want to be able to.
- 34:29You can think about them in a variety of
- 34:31domains, knowledge, skills and attitudes.
- 34:33And there's going to be ends and means.
- 34:35There's timing differences.
- 34:36We talked about being able
- 34:38to effectively express them.
- 34:39So any questions?
- 34:40I'm just going to have us watch
- 34:43a 3 minute video as an example
- 34:45to be thinking about how goals
- 34:48can arrive during a teaching.
- 34:50And so as you're watching this video,
- 34:53I want you to be thinking about if you
- 34:55were the teacher in that video and you
- 34:57were watching this medical student present,
- 35:00what goals would you start
- 35:01to have for that person?
- 35:03And think about an end goal,
- 35:05think about some means goals,
- 35:07think it.
- 35:07Would it be an,
- 35:08would it be a knowledge skill or an attitude?
- 35:09There's not going to be a right
- 35:11or wrong question here 'cause
- 35:12there's a number of goals that
- 35:14you'll all recognize as as being
- 35:15potential goals for this learner.
- 35:17But I just want you to kind
- 35:18of start to practice how you
- 35:20would put these things into,
- 35:23into something that you would then
- 35:26be needing to think about expressing.
- 35:28Alright, Can everybody see this video still
- 35:34looks like a video still.
- 35:36Yeah, we see it. OK,
- 35:38So you're going to be pretending
- 35:39you're this middle attending
- 35:41physician here and you're watching
- 35:42this medical student over here.
- 35:44And I would just take a piece of
- 35:45paper and I would just jot down
- 35:47for yourself, like end goal.
- 35:49You know, 1-2 means goal.
- 35:51And then maybe like a relevant
- 35:53statement and kind of thinking
- 35:55about the verb just so you would
- 35:57be practicing this in real time,
- 35:59just two minutes and 26 seconds.
- 36:04It'll start in a second.
- 36:08So the patient is a 68 year old
- 36:11male with a history of coronary
- 36:13artery disease status post cabbage,
- 36:16coronary artery bypass graft in 2002,
- 36:19history of pulmonary embolus and deep
- 36:21vein thrombosis in 2002 and 2009.
- 36:24Now presents with nausea,
- 36:27vomiting for the past few days along
- 36:29with a Disney on exertion and a oh and a
- 36:33pulmonary embolus in the right lower lobe.
- 36:35His most recent story and his
- 36:38story changes fairly frequently.
- 36:40He also has multiple Ed visits at our
- 36:42hospital and also at A at Fairmont.
- 36:45At Fairmont Hospital for nausea,
- 36:46vomiting and was also discharged on
- 36:48the same day at all of those places.
- 36:51So he was admitted to the holding
- 36:53unit basically for for IV hydration
- 36:54and he was also given Ativan there
- 36:57for for alcohol withdrawal.
- 36:58He was setting 90% on room air.
- 37:01His hematocrit was 40 EKG,
- 37:03didn't show any changes from prior
- 37:06visits and tropes were negative.
- 37:08Creatinine was 1.5, Ethanol tox was negative.
- 37:12However, he became increasingly tacky
- 37:15overnight and per Doctor Stevens's note,
- 37:17his CT came back showing the right
- 37:20lower low PE.
- 37:21Currently,
- 37:22the patient was was not on any Coumadin.
- 37:25This is a little vague.
- 37:27When I reviewed the history,
- 37:29it appeared that his pulmonary embolism
- 37:31occurred during vascular surgery.
- 37:33Yeah,
- 37:33it may have occurred following the surgery,
- 37:36but it just isn't clear right now.
- 37:38The recent piece we're documented
- 37:39at the outside hospital records.
- 37:41We just don't have those records yet.
- 37:43Moving on to relevant past medical history,
- 37:48so he has a history of coronary artery
- 37:52disease and eye surgery and I'm not
- 37:54really sure which eye or what kind
- 37:56of surgery it was a hernia repair,
- 37:59an appendectomy,
- 38:01which surgery do you think is
- 38:03the most pertinent?
- 38:04I think, well, maybe his,
- 38:06his coronary artery disease is the most,
- 38:08is the most pertinent here
- 38:10because that's kind of OK.
- 38:13But it sounds like he had an aneurysm
- 38:15repaired and that contributed
- 38:16to his chest pain. Oh, OK.
- 38:17And it was at that time that he had his PVCS.
- 38:20Not sure whether he had a PE
- 38:23at that time or what. Yeah.
- 38:26It's.
- 38:26Yeah,
- 38:27it's not really clear about that right now.
- 38:34All right. So just curious that
- 38:36you can put this in the chat or if
- 38:39anybody wants to just volunteer a
- 38:41couple of thoughts that they had,
- 38:42I would love to have some thoughts
- 38:45about you're watching that conversation
- 38:47and a goal comes to you in your head.
- 38:50So just as it's coming to you,
- 38:52it helps for you to categorize it.
- 38:54Is this a knowledge skill or
- 38:55an attitude goal?
- 38:55Maybe there's a few that are coming to you.
- 38:57So you could put down in the chat
- 38:59some goals that were coming to you for
- 39:01that learner that was an end goal.
- 39:04And like if it's a knowledge
- 39:05or an attitude goal,
- 39:06you could just kind of start putting
- 39:08that in there so I can see the range,
- 39:10the, the video was very triggering.
- 39:14Yes, you know, and so sometimes,
- 39:16you know you're in the middle of something,
- 39:18somebody's presenting to you and you're
- 39:20like thinking this is a hot mess.
- 39:21It's like, where do I start?
- 39:23Like you have to dissect it a little
- 39:27bit back memories from from medical,
- 39:31is it?
- 39:32What back memories from medical school?
- 39:36So I didn't know anybody want to throw
- 39:38out a because there's no wrong answer.
- 39:40There's just like fodder for us to
- 39:42start with any kind of ends goal that
- 39:44you would have had for that person
- 39:48organization good. So that's knowledge,
- 39:52skill or attitude, would you say?
- 40:04And then Janie says, you know,
- 40:06fluidity of presentation.
- 40:07So sometimes this is really good
- 40:09for you to be really clear in your
- 40:12own mind because it could be that
- 40:14it was organized but not fluid.
- 40:17So you have to kind of like
- 40:18what what is it exactly?
- 40:19Or maybe it's both.
- 40:21And then you're having to also
- 40:22prioritize cause see the if you just
- 40:26say I want you to be better at that,
- 40:28you can imagine that that doesn't
- 40:30help the the student have a shared
- 40:33understanding of when you're
- 40:34going to assess them on that
- 40:36what you're really expecting.
- 40:38I want that to be better. That was bad.
- 40:41That's so focus on the relevant information.
- 40:43So. So Ellie, is it.
- 40:46Ellie, am I saying that right?
- 40:48Yeah, Yes.
- 40:49So that could be an an,
- 40:55an ends goal or a means goal I suppose,
- 40:58depending on where your your learner is.
- 41:02So focusing on the relevant information.
- 41:06So it you know, it could be a a,
- 41:11a knowledge thing that they don't
- 41:12know what's relevant or a skill thing
- 41:14because they left it out because
- 41:16they weren't systematic in the
- 41:17way that they're taking a history.
- 41:19So you know, having a conversation
- 41:23with them knowledge
- 41:27list the key risk factors for PE,
- 41:29rank them in order.
- 41:31Read the Bates chapter.
- 41:32So Kofi is starting to list some
- 41:37you know maybe a knowledge ends goal.
- 41:40I want you to be able to
- 41:41list the risk factors for PE.
- 41:43So he's using list as a verb.
- 41:47So he doesn't.
- 41:48He's just saying like not saying
- 41:49I want you to know PEI want you to
- 41:51be able to list the causes of PE.
- 41:53So for a for a these goals you know list,
- 41:58you know write them all out the
- 42:00the ones that you know about and
- 42:01rank them in order of likelihood
- 42:03and maybe get feedback on that.
- 42:05Read the debates chapter on soap
- 42:08note write and that and that
- 42:10might be kind of separate soap
- 42:11note writing might be kind of
- 42:13more of an organizational thing.
- 42:18Let's see. You have a goal for
- 42:21the intern as well. Atta. Yeah.
- 42:24So there's a lot of things that the
- 42:25attendant could have been watching there.
- 42:26What you knew you can put down an
- 42:28ends goal for the intern. Atta.
- 42:33So the the key thing I'm wanting you to
- 42:36take away from this is you're watching some,
- 42:39you might have a goal that came to you
- 42:41before, maybe that you were going to
- 42:43teach them about something, et cetera.
- 42:46But sometimes goals come to you during and
- 42:48while you were watching that presentation,
- 42:53you were noticing some things.
- 42:54So you're trying to be like thinking,
- 42:55what am I noticing?
- 42:56Is it was it knowledge,
- 42:58skill or attitudes? If it's an if,
- 42:59it's a depending on what it is,
- 43:02let me try to pick off a few that seem
- 43:04to be high priority because, you know,
- 43:06maybe some of those were above like
- 43:07what shoes he was wearing right there.
- 43:09You're going to have someones that
- 43:11maybe have to do with patient safety
- 43:13and etcetera that are going to be
- 43:15higher up on your priority list,
- 43:18thinking about using your verbs
- 43:20to to refine the knowledge goals
- 43:22or the skill goals.
- 43:23So it'd be, it'd be observable and then
- 43:25to start to brainstorm some things.
- 43:27Now let's just try one more thing.
- 43:30Actually,
- 43:30I'm not going to try one more thing.
- 43:32This is going to be the second activity
- 43:33that we do because the second activity,
- 43:35if you have the first hand
- 43:37outlet that Linda gave you,
- 43:39no breakout rooms.
- 43:40So please, please hang in there.
- 43:44But because you know,
- 43:46we only have our 45 minutes together,
- 43:49if we don't do a little bit of
- 43:51this skills practice,
- 43:53then it's really hard for you to
- 43:55walk away feeling like you're you're
- 43:57you've got some tangible things
- 43:59that you remember from the session.
- 44:01So a means goal for you to get better
- 44:05and effectively expressing goals is for
- 44:08you to practice on your worksheet I gave you.
- 44:11All right.
- 44:12So this is a means goal.
- 44:14Why?
- 44:14This is a relevant statement because
- 44:17you're going to otherwise walk
- 44:18away and you're not going to really
- 44:20feel like you learned anything
- 44:21unless we have you do an activity.
- 44:22This is how you cement things.
- 44:24So if you would take the bottom
- 44:26part of that worksheet,
- 44:27which was handed number one
- 44:29that Linda gave you,
- 44:30I want we're going to just take
- 44:32like 3 minutes of silence.
- 44:34I'll sing in the meantime in the background,
- 44:36gently,
- 44:37quietly and you'll see that
- 44:40it says knowledge,
- 44:40skill and attitudes on your worksheet.
- 44:43And even if you've if you're like driving,
- 44:45you don't have a worksheet or
- 44:47you or you can't print it out.
- 44:50Just if you're driving,
- 44:51not driving and you can just write on
- 44:53a piece of paper make a make a three
- 44:55by three table that says knowledge,
- 44:57skill and attitudes.
- 44:58Then it has ends.
- 44:59Goals means goals, relevant statement.
- 45:02So picture where you usually teach.
- 45:05Picture like Mike Green is going to
- 45:07go precept an HIV clinic tomorrow.
- 45:10Pam
- 45:12is going to go be associate clerkship
- 45:14director for the Students in Psychiatry,
- 45:16and she's going to have to
- 45:17Orient the clerkship students.
- 45:18Rob Homer is going to be doing attacks
- 45:20and defenses wherever it might be.
- 45:22Like, think, what are my knowledge goal?
- 45:24What's a skill goal?
- 45:25Let me practice using a verb.
- 45:27Let me practice making some means
- 45:29goals and a relevant statement.
- 45:31So you're just going to take 5
- 45:33minutes to fill in your worksheet
- 45:35a little bit with something that
- 45:37you really feel is useful for you.
- 45:40And then we're going to call it at
- 45:45maybe in in 3 minutes from now
- 45:50and just have people put some of
- 45:52the things that they put in there,
- 45:54'cause we wanna give,
- 45:55make sure that people are
- 45:56understanding the concepts correctly.
- 45:58So just take 3 minutes by yourself,
- 46:02fill in the worksheet.
- 46:06Amazing. I'm, I'm kidding.
- 46:08I'm not really gonna sing.
- 46:11It'll drive you to distraction
- 46:14and please ask me some questions
- 46:17in the chat in the meantime.
- 46:19You can even write them in the chat
- 46:21if you want to get feedback on them,
- 46:23but I want everybody to have
- 46:24something on their worksheets
- 46:25when they're done. Here
- 47:44You want us to put it in the chat
- 47:47if you would like.
- 47:55Especially if like you're.
- 47:56I think a lot of times people can
- 47:59struggle with attitude and means goals.
- 48:01You might be observing,
- 48:05you know, an intern speaking
- 48:12disrespectfully to a nurse on the
- 48:15phone and so you have a goal for them.
- 48:17You think you watch that and you're like,
- 48:20I would like you to be
- 48:22respectful and you're like,
- 48:25good luck with that. Or you know,
- 48:27I've gotten that feedback before.
- 48:29You know I don't.
- 48:30I don't know what you're talking about.
- 48:32What are some means goals for attitudes.
- 48:35So if anybody has an attitude,
- 48:36end goal and you,
- 48:38we want the group to brainstorm.
- 48:41Sometimes for attitude means goals,
- 48:43we need to brainstorm ideas.
- 48:47What have you found that works?
- 48:48When you have somebody
- 48:49who's not patient centered,
- 48:50what have you found works?
- 48:52If somebody has a blind spot,
- 48:55if somebody's disrespectful.
- 49:02Oh, and did you just do that?
- 49:07Oh, somebody. Somebody else.
- 49:09Oh, you're you're back. Yeah.
- 49:12That looked like it was an
- 49:13interesting thing to do.
- 49:20All right. Hopefully you're working on
- 49:22that and you're feeling like you can use
- 49:24it as a template to get more explicit.
- 49:29A lot of us who attend in the hospital,
- 49:33you do as regularly.
- 49:35You know, you meet your team.
- 49:37You know, you kind of have these
- 49:39things that come up repeatedly.
- 49:40You might even decide you're
- 49:41going to print some of these out,
- 49:43like team expectations.
- 49:48You know going around and asking
- 49:50each person for their goals
- 49:52and as you express your goals,
- 49:54anybody wanna to to talk about a
- 49:56a goal that they were struggling
- 49:58with a means goal or an ends goal.
- 50:00Before we do our final couple of slides,
- 50:04I just have an implementation slide and
- 50:06we have a little final thought slide that
- 50:11any challenges that you're
- 50:12struggling with with this,
- 50:14you want to say something at the
- 50:17end about following up on goals.
- 50:20Yeah, I had only the only
- 50:21thing I had said so far,
- 50:22but I do have a implementation idea
- 50:24about that is that it's good to kind
- 50:27of revisit them because you might
- 50:29need another relevant statement.
- 50:30Maybe you've accomplished that goal
- 50:32and it's time to go to the next one.
- 50:34But anybody have any goals that they
- 50:36were finding a hard time coming up
- 50:38with a means or a relevant statement,
- 50:40anything that's challenging,
- 50:44I put one in the chat.
- 50:45It wasn't particularly challenging,
- 50:47but I have the and goals
- 50:50and mean goals. But
- 50:52where where is that? Oh
- 50:54I didn't click it.
- 50:56Now it should be there
- 50:58conduct shared decision making
- 51:01encounter regarding statins and HIV.
- 51:03So is it you think it's a
- 51:06knowledge or a skill goal? I
- 51:08think it's a skill goal and or
- 51:10decision making and then there
- 51:12were I put some means goals
- 51:13in there after it.
- 51:17Yeah. Any feedback for him?
- 51:23Maybe get had somebody
- 51:25watch you and get feedback
- 51:30is the HIV residents are doing a team
- 51:32Qi project on this
- 51:38and then if there's you know you have
- 51:40a means like the relevant statement
- 51:42is because you know because it
- 51:44decreases you know CV risk by X amount.
- 51:48Well I hope you're all not being shy
- 51:51or anything and that you're feeling
- 51:53like you this is making sense 'cause
- 51:56I I really want to Jane. I've got one.
- 51:58You know if you don't mind.
- 52:00Yeah I I'm just just motivated for you to
- 52:02feel like you can implement this Janie.
- 52:04So OK so mine was a skill goal
- 52:07and I just put in here. We do this
- 52:10when the students are on campus, but
- 52:12successfully obtain blood from venipuncture
- 52:14is one of our skills.
- 52:17And so the means goal would be to practice
- 52:21that, I guess practice
- 52:22veniplexure. But I'm trying
- 52:23to come up with a relevant statement. I mean,
- 52:27so you don't mess up a
- 52:29patient's arm. I don't know,
- 52:32because you might be oh,
- 52:33anybody else? I'm sorry.
- 52:35I mean, anybody else have a
- 52:37relevant statement for Janie?
- 52:38Why they should know how
- 52:40to do phlebotomy? It's
- 52:42a an essential skill for medical
- 52:46students to obtain in order to
- 52:50become competent physicians.
- 52:51Gotcha. I like that. Thank you.
- 52:56All right, I'll just finish this up here.
- 52:59But I was going to just mention
- 53:03the idea for implementation.
- 53:04You know, you, if you're a classroom teacher,
- 53:06you're obviously thinking
- 53:07about these ahead of time.
- 53:08I just implore you.
- 53:10I just suggest,
- 53:11you know using your verbs wisely and
- 53:14explicitly and including relevant
- 53:15statements to really have them
- 53:17feel like they're buying in and
- 53:19engaging because they they're going
- 53:21to realize why it's important.
- 53:22And I I have a little example here.
- 53:25I don't know if you you can't really
- 53:27see if you see my screen but I have
- 53:29this little card that I keep and
- 53:31I've got this little table here is
- 53:34basically reduplicated down below
- 53:36or at the beginning I'll try to
- 53:38really I'll I'll talk about my
- 53:40goals that are that I I try to do
- 53:42my best practices as much as I can.
- 53:44But when I'm asking them for
- 53:46their goals to kind of track them.
- 53:48You know,
- 53:48what did they really want to be able to do?
- 53:50Why help them use goals the verbs
- 53:52a little bit and have them be more
- 53:54smart goals and think about means
- 53:56goals and if we've completed them.
- 53:58So I can kind of circle back like
- 54:00how are you doing on that goal of
- 54:02being able to identify splunomegaly.
- 54:04But we haven't had any patients
- 54:06with big squeines on our patient.
- 54:08Like let's go over to the hematology floor,
- 54:10you know,
- 54:11So revisiting them to see if they
- 54:13need different means goals, et cetera.
- 54:18And before we do the take home
- 54:24points because oh, it's starting.
- 54:26Oh, the time, the timer's already starting.
- 54:29But we've been implementing,
- 54:30getting feedback from you about the
- 54:32sessions before we give you our takeaways.
- 54:34So if you can just scan that QR code and
- 54:39I don't know if there's a link in the
- 54:41chat that Linda's also going to put,
- 54:45but we've found we get more
- 54:48feedback on these sessions.
- 54:50If you do this now one minute
- 54:55we have our countdown timer.
- 55:12The other thing that Linda just put in
- 55:15the chat is I have a handout for you
- 55:19that has some a bunch of different ends,
- 55:21goal kind of domains and
- 55:23some suggested means, goals,
- 55:24activities just for you to feel like
- 55:26you have a menu that you can draw
- 55:29from when you're running out of ideas
- 55:31for activities for your learners.
- 55:36I guess that's time if you're
- 55:39not done with it.
- 55:40Don't stop though,
- 55:41because the only thing I'm just
- 55:43going to end by saying that I'm
- 55:47feeling that by the end of this
- 55:49session you have been convinced
