Research Advanced Skills in Medical Education (RASME) Sessions
Offered and accredited by AMEE
PLEASE NOTE: Course participants must also register for AMEE 2016 & pay the conference registration fee | Courses fees are exclusive of Spanish VAT.
One-day RASME courses offer the chance to look at an area of research in medical education at intermediate or advanced level.

one-day course may be taken separately from RESME.
Experimental Studies in Medical Education: from theory to practice
Experimental research in medical education involves studies that
aim to verify, refute or expand on the validity of hypotheses. This
type of research is paramount for developing and refining
theory and advancing the field of medical education. However,
experimental studies in the medical education research
literature often lack the methodological rigor that characterizes
research conducted within traditional disciplines (e.g.,
psychology, biomedicine), affecting the trustworthiness of the
evidence produced. Furthermore, many medical education
researchers struggle when using theory to construct research
questions, to choose experimental designs & data analyses, and
to integrate their findings with existing theoretical frameworks.
Working with experts in experimental research, participants will
learn about relevant research methodologies & ways to
incorporate theory into the design and reporting of experimental
studies. Using a mix of short presentations and interactive
small-group sessions, experienced scientists will guide
participants to refine their own research proposals and research
programs.
Facilitators:
Martin G. Tolsgaard (Copenhagen Academy for Medical Education
and Simulation, Denmark), Ryan Brydges (Wilson Centre and
University of Toronto, Canada), Vicki LeBlanc (Department of
Innovation in Medical Education, University of Ottawa, Canada)
Sessions:
Sunday (0830-1630)
Qualitative Research Methodologies: Embracing Methodological Flexibility As qualitative methodologies and methods are employed with
increasing frequency, particular conceptions of certain
methodologies have been embraced to the exclusion of others.
The implication of such practices in qualitative research should
be considered & evaluated. To that end, in this RASME
workshop we will describe three approaches for encouraging
methodological flexibility in qualitative research: (1)
methodological borrowing, (2) methodological shifting, and
(3) methodological importing. These approaches are some
of the means through which qualitative researchers have made
space for their work in the health professions community.
We will define each approach and explore their use by
analyzing their application to specific qualitative methodologies.
Using their own research proposals and examples from the
literature, participants will gain an understanding of how to
develop a qualitative study that flexibly employs qualitative
methodologies, while also maintaining appropriate markers of
qualitative rigor.

Uncertainty in Healing and Learning:
Finding the Simple in the Complex
Dr Glenda Eoyang
Executive Director
Human Systems
Dynamics Institute, USA
Monday 29th August 2016
0830-0930
SESSION 2 – Plenary
Uncertainty is a fact of life in the medical
professions, but it seldom appears in educational
programs for health care professionals. The
theory & practice of dealing with uncertainty have
long been relegated to the world of intuition &
luck. Recent developments in the sciences of
chaos and complexity introduce rigorous and
disciplined approaches to deal with uncertainty.
In this session, Dr. Eoyang will share the two
fundamental principles of human systems
dynamics and three core distinctions that
will inform theory and practice to improve
educational outcomes for your students,
performance outcomes for their organizations,
& health outcomes for their patients.

SESSION 7 -
The University of Rwanda was created two years
ago from the merger of the seven public Universities
and has 31,000 students on 14 campuses. It is the
majority provider of doctors & nurses, & the sole
provider of all other health care professionals.
The merger is one part context and during these
two years, in response to predicted needs, we
have opened the first-ever dental school, doubled
the intake into medicine, and started the first
ever Masters degrees in clinical nursing for 160
candidates. The challenges facing students and
faculty, and delivery of teaching in clinical
environments, are not new but the opportunities
that emerge are exciting and energizing.
0905-0915 | Questions
Difficult circumstances, faced by both students &
faculty, in medical education range from military
activities, human rights violations and poverty,
to the lack of awareness of evidence-based
medical education resulting in an outdated,
traditional way of teaching. Until recently, Polish
medical
curricula
were
considered
very
traditional; non-integrated and overloaded with
theoretical knowledge while minimising practical
skills & social competence. Thanks to exchange
programmes and support from international
organisations, Polish students have become
acquainted with modern educational systems
and are initiating their implementation. Examples
of Polish students’ activities & projects will be
presented, also illustrating how medical students can
act as change leaders in medical education.

Symposium 7B:
Teaching Professionalism to Medical Students:
A cross-national discussion
Panel: Ducksun Ahn (South Korea), Barbara Barzansky,
Dan Hunt (USA), Nobou Nara (Japan)

whom professionalism is defined, how it is taught and
assessed, behaviours that must be demonstrated in
the clinical setting & how inappropriate behaviour
by students and faculty is addressed.
Symposium 7C:
Issues in Recruiting, Training and Rewarding Clinical
Faculty Outside the University and Hospital
Panel: Daniel Webster, William A Anderson, Elza Mylona,
Peggy A Weissinger (USA), Simon Gregory (UK), Niels
Kristian Kjaer (Denmark)
Delivering quality clinical training in decentralized
environments requires not only a well-organized
curriculum but also quality clinical faculty to teach &
serve as role models. The audience will be invited to
discuss the issues with the goal of identifying best
practice.

Educating future researchers and educators in
health professions is of utmost importance for
the advancement of our field, yet there is great
variation among PhD programs worldwide.
Building on the AMEE 2014 symposium where
differences between PhD programs were
highlighted, we will discuss how our models of
doctoral level training help to fulfill our societal
responsibilities.
As educators in the digital age we need to
optimise our use of digital methods to
improve the quality and reach of our teaching,
and improve students’ learning outcomes.
How do we build that new knowledge,
and share what we discover about the
new digital pedagogies now open to us?
Educators can no longer work in isolation given
the challenges we face. Can we use the
technology to become more professional
in building our collective knowledge? The
presentation will propose some new design
tools to support educators, and a new approach
to professionalising teaching.
