Abstract Following the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic national lockdown in South Africa, the University of the Free State launched various support initiatives for academic staff and students. Teaching and learning activities and assessments were adapted for emergency remote teaching. Students and academic staff members experienced disruption due to the migration to the online environment. This study aimed to investigate the experiences of academic staff members in an undergraduate medical programme using a mixed-methods approach in the form of a sequential exploratory design in two phases. Quantitative data were obtained through an online questionnaire survey that were triangulated and complemented with qualitative data obtained from responses to open questions in the questionnaire survey and online reflective essays. Quantitative data revealed that although most academic staff members had received training in and used mostly administrative functions in the learning management system (Blackboard) prior to lockdown, its uses almost doubled during the lockdown. Qualitative data analysis gave an in-depth understanding of academic staff members’ experiences identified in the themes Teaching and Learning, Assessment, Technology, Communication, and Personal Experience. Concerns were expressed regarding students’ access to technology and adaptation to online learning, and training needs and challenges were identified. The lessons learnt through the resilient, transformative responses to this global disruptor can guide future strategies for medical education.

Abstract Objectives Exploring workplace dynamics during clinical placement is crucial to determine whether medical students are encountering safe and meaningful learning experiences. The aim of this original article is to describe medical students’ reported harassment experiences whilst on clinical placement. Design Medical students in years 4 to 6 were invited to participate in the survey. In this mixed-methods study, data collection included demographic information, responses to the Generalized Workplace Harassment Questionnaire, and qualitative commentaries. Results Two hundred and five students completed the questionnaire. Medical students experienced harassment in areas of verbal aggression, disrespect, isolation/exclusion, threats/bribes, and physical aggression. Concerning levels of occurrence were noted for disrespect, isolation/exclusion, and verbal aggression. Conclusions Many medical students in this study reported experiencing harassment during their clinical placements indicating that harassment during clinical placement continues to be of concern in medical education. The findings indicate that further initiatives need to be designed to identify and respond to these cases of workplace harassment and that power imbalance and safe reporting appear to be further issues of concern. It was evident that students need to feel safe enough to be able to report harassment experiences to allow managers and educators to address the full extent of the problem.
