The International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE) invites you to join us for our second annual Virtual Forum! Join us October 18-20 as we host ignite talks, lightning talks, and more. The virtual forum is designed for all interested in teaching, designing, and leading medical and health professions sciences curricula. Participants include students & trainees, basic scientists, providers, clinicians, and other faculty from across various healthcare and educational disciplines. We specifically encourage junior faculty, postdocs, and students to participate in the forum. This year’s theme: “Should It Stay or Should It Go? Changing Health Education for Changing Times”.
The second of our three ignite speakers is Holly Gooding from Emory University School of Medicine and the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta in the United States. She will present How Are We Going to Get to The Moon? Developing Operating Principles for Effective Curriculum Change on Thursday, October 19, 2023.
How Are We Going to Get to The Moon? Developing Operating Principles for Effective Curriculum Change
Holly Gooding, Emory University School of Medicine
Presented on Thursday, October 19, 2023
How are you going to get your learners to the desired outcome, your curricular moonshot? As famously asked by Alice in Wonderland, will any way get you there? This session will begin with a twenty-minute sprint examining the importance of an institution’s mission, vision, and values at the beginning of any curriculum design project. While especially important for large-scale curricular change efforts, this is relevant to all types of curricular design.
