The Center for Educational Enhancement invites faculty and staff to the fourth of the IAMSE Spring 2024 Series: Creating a Culture of Teaching and Learning entitled "Student Motivation and Well-Being in Medical School and the Resilient Mindsets in Medicine Initiative".

Speaker:  Kenn Barron, Ph.D. (James Madison University); Yoi Tibbetts, Ph.D. (University of Virginia); Zachary Himmelberger, Ph.D. (University of Virginia's Motivate Lab)

In this session, we will introduce a new partnership between AACOM and the University of Virginia's Motivate Lab to study medical student/physician motivation and well-being, and how it can be improved through the Resilient Mindsets in Medicine initiative, where medical instructors are introduced to new strategies on how to approach teaching. To appreciate the problem that our partnership is trying to solve along with possible solutions, recent AACOM National Survey Findings (from over 10,000 participants) of incoming and graduating medical students will be shared along with examples of promising new strategies that instructors are now learning in the Resilient Mindsets in Medicine initiative.
