Series Description

This series explores the revolutionary shift in medical and health professions education from traditional teaching methods to active learning approaches that enhance learner engagement and comprehension. The rapid evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools is accelerating this transformation, including using AI-simulated patients in the pre-clerkship and clerkship years. It is offering unprecedented opportunities for innovation across the education continuum.

Our series provides valuable insights into implementing active learning methods in the classroom and virtual platforms. We will bridge the gap between these methods' potential and practical application, propelling the field toward a more interactive and impactful educational landscape. It embraces exciting and innovative learning techniques that are reshaping the future of medical and health professions education.
