چکیده

introduction: programs must demonstrate that their residents are taught and assessed in professionalism. most programs struggle with finding viable ways to teach and assess this critical competency. uthscsa family and community medicine residency developed an innovative option for interactive learning and assessment of residents in this competency which would be transferrable to other programs and specialties. methods: the innovative approach uses an asynchronous online format on blackboard. threaded discussions on blackboard require thoughtful reflective writing after case assessment and critical evaluation of other resident posts. participation, content and progress of all resident postings are monitored by administrative staff and faculty. faculty can further engage the residents at any point to deepen the discussion and learning. results: 100% of all senior residents attained the required learning objectives. all were actively engaged in the assignments. six cases have been developed using a learning matrix to demonstrate evaluation areas from the specialty specific competencies. written feedback from residents verified the validity of case content in context of their current clinical practice. postings by residents have provided value and insight for the faculty to access the professional development of our family medicine residents. the clinical competency committee evaluates all third year residents using this information specific to the professionalism milestones. by using an asynchronous online approach to case discussion, all residents are involved with all aspects of this curriculum. conclusions: more specific measurable learning outcomes are possible using this approach. resident participation and engagement is easier to track and monitor than a lecture-based format and easier to capture valuable data than relying on evaluation feedback. our annual review process will identify areas for improvement in the existing cases and help create supplemental cases based on a needs assessment by the faculty.
