    Assessing a Longitudinal Educational Experience for Continuous Quality Improvement
    (Indiana University School of Medicine Education Day, 2024-04-26) Masseria, Anthony; Birnbaum, Deborah R.
    This presentation explores the use of assessment tools to promote adaptability and continuous quality improvement (CQI) in a large educational program. The Scholarly Concentrations Program is a statewide program complementing the core medical school curriculum and empowering students to delve into topics of personal interest. The pilot was launched with a “CQI” mindset, and after three years, a robust assessment plan is gathering feedback. While “building the plane as we fly it”, the program has grown from 100 students in its first year to over 400 in its third. A robust, longitudinal evaluation plan is critical. The intended goal is to use this program example to replicate it with other large educational programs anywhere.

    Educational Programs and Adaptability: A Systems Approach to Creating Adaptable Educational Programs
    (2021-04-22) Birnbaum, Deborah R.; Corson-Knowles, Daniel; Lee, Kathy; Rojas, Michelle
    The IUSM Scholarly Concentrations Program is an optional four-year longitudinal program that allows students to explore interests outside the core medical curriculum. In two years, 17 concentrations were developed statewide and more than 220 students enrolled. As a part of developing a sustainable educational program, a Plan-Do-Check-Act improvement cycle is being used. This workshop will feature examples of the use of the Plan-Do-Check-Act improvement cycle during the launch and pilot a large, novel educational program that is “good enough” and builds toward sustainability and excellence while responding to large-scale systematic changes. Participants in the workshop will apply these principles to their own educational programs.
