Feedback should not be a surprise! (Does anyone like this kind of surprise??) Preparing our learners for difficult feedback and productive struggle as a critical part of the learning process is critical for making safe learning environments. #ICRE2025

Is psychological safety all “warm and fuzzy”? Or have we as a group become afraid of uncertainty and failure…? “There is a really big difference between discomfort and distress” says Mylopoulos.

@icreconf.bsky.social Great start to the day with a discussion of productive struggle and adaptive expertise. Proud of @maxfg98.bsky.social representing the McGill IHSE in this important discussion

Faculty tend to teach how they were taught. Concepts like productive struggle are complex & (sometimes) uncomfortable for faculty. Where are safe spaces for faculty to practice these skills, so they can integrate into clinical teaching confidently? A call for engagement with FacDev? #ICRE2025

Much ‘curricula’ in residency programs is guided by the affordances of the clinical learning environment and tends to be somewhat opportunistic. Is it time to have conversations about some deliberate design strategies around teaching around fostering things like productive struggle? #ICRE2025

Comments like « that was good » tend to have unintended messages about whether performance can actually improve. Language matters. #ICRE2025

Transformational learning theory may provide some insight to how we can embrace discomfort and productive struggle when designing curricula #ICRE2025

Struggle can help with learning but not all struggle is necessary and not all struggle is productive #ICRE2025

Education isn't about getting rid of uncertainty but embracing it, requiring epistemic humility to recognize what we don't know #ICRE2025

How can we design curriculum to
Capitalize on appropriate productive struggle? Especially in the high risk high stress environment our learners inhabit? #ICRE2025.

"Can I get an EPA for that" are words that resonate so much for so many medical educators 😂 #ICRE2025

Leid is German for "suffering", but could it mean more in medical education?

Join the conversation (and our workshop!) tomorrow afternoon at #ICRE2025 in Room 307AB at 15,30!

We see medical experts vs celebrity influencers in the battle against health misinformation.

But what about the dangers of predatory academic journals and the rise of low quality publications?

We need to protect curious patients who are just genuinely looking for answers.

Really interesting to see how people embrace of medical misinformation, stemming from the desire to be part of a community.

Opening plenary at #ICRE2025 with @caulfieldtim.bsky.social talking about the threat of misinformation to public health.

While medicine isn’t always right, some answers are clearly wrong.
