Lexington, KY

It is time to review the schedule for the placement of your session in the AAACE Agenda. This is the final draft of the Schedule. When you look up your name, use the detail listing to check what days/times you asked to be placed. This is a huge program and we can accommodate necessary changes in day and time now, but may not be able to do so after September 1, 2013 except in emergencies. Please carefully check your placement and send any requests to Ginger Phillips, AAACE Conference Planner with AAACE Session Change Request in the subject line. We will respond to your email, but it may take us up to a week to do so. Thanks for your help in "fine tuning" this agenda!

Session Abstract

Examination of a program that trained clinical faculty, who teach surgical residents in a lecture and lab setting, to teach using adult learning principles and a purposeful mentoring model (P.O.M.M.).

Target Audience

This session will be useful for program managers, professional development professionals, program evaluators, clinical faculty, clinical faculty educators, mentors, mentor trainers, higher education professionals and adult educators in general. The program utilized a train-the-trainer approach so it can be adapted in a variety of educational settings by a variety of professionals.

Learning Outcomes

Learners will develop an understanding of how adult learning principles can be tailored to meet the needs of specific adult learners. Additionally, participants will be able to apply what they learn about the Purposeful Ongoing Mentoring Model (P.O.M.M) to help their students/mentees advance skill levels in a variety of settings.

Session Description

This session focuses on the utilization of a partnership between adult educators and clinical faculty who teach mainly surgical residents to perform specific spine surgeries. Many higher education faculty are not trained to educate the adults they serve; they are mostly content experts. In a field with high stakes, in particular, spine surgery, preparing faculty to teach effectively is vital. During this session, participants will be exposed to the strategies that were used to train clinical faculty to use adult learning principles and a model for skill development in both lecture and lab settings. Additionally, the results of a qualitative study examining the attitudes and perceptions about the effectiveness of the training by clinical faculty and residents (students) will be reported.
