Purpose: To compare student performance, examiner perceptions and cost of GPT-assisted (generative pretrained transformer-assisted) clinical and professional skills assessment (CPSAs) items against items created using standard methods.
Methods: We conducted a prospective, controlled, double-blinded comparison of CPSA items developed using GPT-assistance with those created through standard methods. Two sets of six practical cases were developed for a formative assessment sat by final year medical students. One clinical case in each set was created with GPT-assistance. Students were assigned to one of the two sets.
Results: The results of 239 participants were analysed in the study. There was no statistically significant difference in item difficulty, or discriminative ability between GPT-assisted and standard items. One hundred percent (n = 15) of respondents to an examiner feedback questionnaire felt GPT-assisted cases were appropriately difficult and realistic. GPT-assistance resulted in significant labour cost savings, with a mean reduction of 57% (880 GBP) in labour cost per case when compared to standard case drafting methods.
Conclusions: GPT-assistance can create CPSA items of comparable quality with significantly less cost when compared to standard methods. Future studies could evaluate GPT's ability to create CPSA material in other areas of clinical practice, aiming to validate the generalisability of these findings.

Purpose: Justice, equity, diversity, inclusion (JEDI), and anti-oppression (AO) concepts are necessary in healthcare settings to promote culturally safe and high-quality care; however, entry-level healthcare program curricula (EHPPC) may lack adequate integration and/or delivery of these concepts. The primary aim of this scoping review is to identify what guidelines, frameworks, and models (GFMs) are used, and how they are used, to develop and deliver JEDI, and AO concepts in mandatory EHPPC.
Methods: A search of Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid EMBASE, and CINAHL was conducted for studies published in English from 2015 onwards that discuss what GFMs are included in mandatory EHPPC and how they guide the development and/or delivery of JEDI and/or AO concepts. Data from the included studies was collated into themes which were presented in tables and figures and described in narrative summaries.
Results: Sixty-one studies from various healthcare programs including medicine, nursing, pharmacy, dentistry, and dietetics were included in this review. Data from the studies were organized into eight categories: GFMs, concepts, methods of evaluation, length and frequency of sessions, modes of delivery, learning activities, and training of curricular developers and facilitators.
Conclusions: GFMs are used in a variety of ways to integrate JEDI and/or AO concepts into health professional curriculum. Variability in the training of developers and facilitators of curricular concepts also exists. Future research is needed to determine if consistent or variable GFMs, as well as JEDI and/or AO developer and facilitator training, would be more effective for students' learning of these concepts.

Purpose: International Medical Programmes (IMPs) form a distinctive modality in medical education, with diverse student populations, English as a language of instruction and 'globalized' curricula. A lack of common understanding of IMPs' purposes and role in the medical education landscape triggers critiques. This study aims to document the effects of different discourses used to justify the purpose of IMPs.
Methods: We use a discourse analysis approach to explore the different ways in which the purposes of IMPs are constructed at the regulatory, institutional, and individual level, and how these discourses interact. The research situates in two IMPs, in the Netherlands and in Hungary. Key-informant interviews, policy documents, and scholarly literature form the archive.
Results: The purpose of IMPs is constructed discursively around three distinct narratives and associated practices: around serving the institutions that host them, around serving the (global) public interest, and around serving individual students. Co-existence and misalignments of these three discourses cause conflicting practices and confusion among stakeholders.
Conclusions: This study illustrates how diverging perspectives on internationalization in medical education create tensions for learners and staff. Articulating a clear and explicit meaning to internationalization may reduce uncertainties, and may reinforce realistic expectations of what constitutes a good outcome.

Motivation: Medical curricula improvement is an ongoing process to keep material relevant and improve the student's learning experience to better prepare them for patient care. Many programs utilize end-of-year evaluations, but these frequently have low response rates and lack actionable feedback. We hypothesized that student reflections written during a fourth year Sub-Internship could be used retrospectively to mine additional information as feedback for future curriculum adjustments. However, reflections contain a large amount of narrative content that would require a cumbersome and essentially infeasible manual review process for busy medical education faculty.
Methods: We developed a Natural Language Processing (NLP) pipeline to automatically identify common themes and topics present in the set of reflective writings that could be used to improve the curriculum. The dataset contains required responses to a faculty issued question submitted between August 2016 and July 2018 about challenges experienced during the medical students fourth year Sub-Internship.
Results: Eleven distinct topics were identified, with several being subsequently addressed in future iterations of the curriculum.
Conclusion: Utilizing NLP on reflective writings was able to identify areas of curriculum improvement, and the NLP results provided a quick and easy way to explore the main themes and challenges expressed by students.

Background: Faculty development programs in health professional education traditionally emphasise theories, principles, and effective teaching practices. However, the efficacy of these strategies in instigating meaningful changes in instructional practices has come under scrutiny.
Methods: This qualitative research aims to enhance our understanding and support of educators' ongoing learning and growth. Employing a transformative learning lens, the study explored the experiences, professional development practices, and responsibilities of clinical educators who participated in a faculty development course. Utilising Mezirow's transformative learning theory as a framework, this research investigated the transformative journey of educators, analysing reflective pieces from 144 participants.
Results: The study findings revealed shifts in pedagogical approaches, ranging from the recognition of a haphazard teaching style to the intentional integration of evidence-based methods and pedagogical philosophies. The thematic analysis identified key stages in the transformative process, illuminating educators' commitment to structured teaching, self-directed learning, and continuous improvement.
Conclusion: This research has contributed valuable insights into how faculty development programs can stimulate reflective practices and transformative learning in health professional education. The article argues for the centrality of transformative learning processes in faculty development, presenting an intriguing perspective on sustainable and impactful professional growth. Trends across learning experiences are presented, accompanied by practical recommendations. The implications of the research for clinical educators, administrators, and developers of formal faculty professional development programs are also discussed.

Introduction: Sharing mental models is essential for high-performance teams, and speaking up is key for exchanging critical insights, especially during medical errors. Understanding how health providers and trainees voice their concerns is crucial for improving speaking-up behavior. This study aims to fill a gap in the literature by examining how medical students speak up when they encounter medical errors and assessing the impact of training on their speaking-up patterns.
Method: A quasi-experimental study involving 146 students, who were divided into two groups, was conducted in Northern Taiwan. One group of students encountered life-threatening scenario before intervention, followed by a faculty-led personalized debriefing session, then a non-life-threatening scenario after the intervention. Another group of students underwent these sessions in the reverse order. Students' Speaking-up patterns, including expression style, form and attitude, and their speaking-up confidence were assessed at pre- and post-intervention scenarios.
Results: During pre-intervention scenario, in expression style, 50 students (34.5%) addressed their concerns to medical errors with direct expression and 14 students (9.7%) utilized indirect hint to express their concerns. In expression form, 31 students (21.4%) addressed their concerns to medical errors with affirmative sentences and 33 students (22.8%) asked questions to express their concerns. In speaking-up attitude, 47 students (32.4%) used unoffensive words, while 17 students (11.7%) used offensive words. After intervention, significantly change of speaking-up styles, forms, and attitude were observed along with their speaking-up confidence (p < 0.001).
Discussion: Medical students are inclined to speak up in the event of medical errors using more direct expression and affirmative sentences, along with increased speaking-up confidence after simulation scenario learning and faculty-led personalized debriefing. Healthcare educators can focus more on discussing with students the advantages and disadvantages of various approaches of speaking-up in medical errors, helping them to develop effective speaking-up behaviors in a variety of medical contexts.
