Title: Assessment of Learners’ Ability to Apply QI Principles Using a Novel Scoring Rubric
Presenter: Luca Boi, MHA, University of Utah; Brigitte Smith, MD, Department of Surgery, University of Utah; Ryan Murphy, MD, Division of General Internal Medicine, University of Utah; Tyler Pender, MD, Division of General Surgery, University of Utah School of Medicine
Date: 9/15/20
Brief Description: Have you wondered what makes a quality improvement project “good”? How do you know if quality improvement principles were understood and applied? In this workshop we’ll provide a framework for assessing the quality of QI projects. Through interactive discussion and breakout sessions, the participants will use a novel QI Project Scoring Rubric to assess the quality of a mock QI project presentation and the learner’s understanding of QI principles. In small group settings, the participants will practice using the tool to assess example A3 project summaries. The workshop will conclude with an interactive discussion on assessment of learning in the QI domain.

Title: “Why does my learner perform poorly on exams?”: How Faculty Can Use Self-Regulated Learning Theory to Diagnose the Specific Learner Problems and Implement Appropriate Solutions
Presenter: Sarah D. Cipriano, MD, MPH, MS, Primary Children’s Hospital, University of Utah; Janet E. Lindsley, PhD, Department of Biochemistry, George and Dolores Eccles Institute of Human Genetics, University of Utah
Date: 9/15/20
Brief Description: Based on self-regulated learning theory, a microanalytic approach has been developed for faculty to help diagnose why a specific learner is underperforming on exams. UUSOM faculty who have used this approach find it to be a very practical and effective way to help struggling learners. This workshop will provide the knowledge, skills and tools for more faculty to use this approach.
Keywords/Main Subjects: Exams, learning analysis, self-regulated learning theory
