Structure and mutual respect can make studying together much more fruitful. #MedEd21 Dec 2024 12:54 +0000at://did:plc:fprtkqtcrgiuoagzuwetjnd2/app.bsky.feed.post/3ldsx4ftoo22uhttps://bsky.app/profile/hyguruprep.bsky.social/post/3ldo6w2lcbs2j“Medicine is a science of uncertainty and an art of probability” - Sir William Osler Medicine thrives in the gray areas—balancing the unknown with calculated judgment. The best clinicians embrace this uncertainty, using it as a canvas for thoughtful, evidence-based care.19 Dec 2024 15:31 +0000at://did:plc:fprtkqtcrgiuoagzuwetjnd2/app.bsky.feed.post/3ldo6w2lcbs2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/hyguruprep.bsky.social/post/3ldlhy6ni4s2cMy checklist when I have a new learner on my team: 1. Build rapport 2. Have learner reflect on what they want to work on 3. Set expectations 4. Directly observe 5. Provide formative feedback …and most importantly celebrate the mini wins while they improve. #MedEd18 Dec 2024 13:35 +0000at://did:plc:fprtkqtcrgiuoagzuwetjnd2/app.bsky.feed.post/3ldlhy6ni4s2chttps://bsky.app/profile/hyguruprep.bsky.social/post/3ldduoewfes2cIn a typical hour-long lecture: • Attention peaks in the first 10-20 minutes and final 5 minutes. • Only 42% of key points are recalled immediately—and just 20% a week later. By simply adding engaging questions into didactics you can shift passive learning to more active application. #MedEd15 Dec 2024 13:01 +0000at://did:plc:fprtkqtcrgiuoagzuwetjnd2/app.bsky.feed.post/3ldduoewfes2chttps://bsky.app/profile/hyguruprep.bsky.social/post/3ld6rpcpavc2yGrateful to learn from a true innovator and mentor, @neilmehta.bsky.social, about leveraging generative #AI to bridge basic sciences and clinical medicine.

Embrace mistakes → reflect on why you're getting questions wrong → refine & repeat.
