  24. Learners in Difficulty:Therapeutic Considerations CAPT Barbara Knollmann-Ritschel Fundamentals Module Co-Directors Associate Professor for Pathology and Emerging Infectious Diseases

  25. Objectives • Identify challenges in an ongoing curriculum. • Discuss differences of short and long term remediation. • Present a strategy for learners with issues in Professionalism, Science, and Clinical Skills. • Discuss the cost of remediation.

  26. Remediation: Challenges in new Curriculum • Old Curriculum: • Courses Directors • Long time span with regular contact • Ongoing remediation: course specific help • Failed Course: repeat course/deceleration

  27. New Curriculum: New Challenges • Modules Directors: organize remediation for multiple courses with Course Directors • Ongoing curriculum- bigger impact when students are at lower end- need to juggle more courses at the same time • Less time for students with denser curriculum: • The fire hose

  28. Remediation: Challenges in new Curriculum • Remediation is spaced with ongoing curriculum- • Student fails Fundamentals- final remediation may not be done until following summer! • Remediation may be 10 months later with ongoing curriculum

  29. Remediation: Challenges in new Curriculum • Timing is not ideal- what can we do? • “Pre grade remediation” – what can we do not in the short term before the end of the module or ongoing remediation • Balance with in-depth remediation

  30. Are they the same? Remediation of Science Knowledge vs. Clinical Skills vs. Professionalism

  31. Creating a Remediation Plan

  32. Remediation of Science Knowledge: • Summary of exam results with strengths and weaknesses • Pre-remediation work summary • Reason for requiring additional work • Grade issued: Incomplete/Fail • Plan: • What type of remediation is needed and proposed study block. • A Passing score (above 65%) will be required to pass the Fundamental Module.

  33. Remediation of Clinical Skills • Review data from direct observations and Simcenter • Where is the Lesion? • Professionalism • Reporter • Interpreter • Manager • Educator • Increased time at simulation center- Practice skills – residents FNA • Remediate skills session as close to time of feedback • Focused plan on those skills that are identified as weak

  34. Remediation of Professionalism: Five-Step Approach • Major concern from AAMC

  35. Tiered Approach: 5 Step Process
