EVIDENCE-BASED EDUCATION FOR PRIMARY CARE: WHAT IS GOING ON IN EUROPE?
Abstract
Abstract Body
Background
Evidence based medicine is the corner stone of our medical and diagnostic practice: based on evidence we weigh decisions in collaboration with the patient taking into account the context and also our experience as a contributing factor. We see a parallel with medical education. It is important to use and develop a scientific base for our medical education as a starting point for further development fed by local context and experience.
EURACT council members have made an overview of prevailing research topics in GP/FM education all over Europe.
This EURACT-workshop is developed in close relation with the workshop entitled The relevance of evidence-based education for primary care, where an overview of educational research within the Netherlands will be given. It is not necessary to participate in that workshop beforehand, but it may give the opportunity to deepen your output.
Aim and learning objectives
After the workshop the participant will know the current educational research activity in GP/FM in Europe, and even has new contacts for educational research networking.
Methods and timetable
10 min: a short overview of themes prevailing in ongoing educational research in GP/FM in Europe, as collected by EURACT council members.
40 min: four breakout rooms based on the four main research themes (assessment (portfolio and EPA’s), longitudinal integrated clerkships in basic medical education, interprofessional education, hospital placements for GP trainees) to share in an interactive way via a structured, creative, activating format who is working on which research question with what methodology. Exploring possibilities for networking and future collaboration.
10 min: plenary wrap-up; each small group will briefly report on what has been shared.
Expected Results / Conclusions
Participants interested in educational research will have an overview of GP/FM educational research themes prevailing in various countries, and possibly may develop plans for research collaboration.
