A medical education paradigm that needs terminating with extreme prejudice

Well, I blogged a few days ago about a medical education paradigm that needs terminating with extreme prejudice.

The world will end before you can read all the papers on student learning in medical education and find ten that actually validate cross sectional data of what students think, with measures of long term learning and competence. The paradigm is a failure. Can we stop.

 

Nay chance. Look at this. Not a measure of learning in sight. ‘Happy charts’. And I think the sun goes round the earth, so that’s OK too. Yes, I know, skip reading the literature, or get therapy.
