The development of the pharmaceutical industry is one of the priority tasks of our state, aimed at providing the population of the Russian Federation with modern safe and effective medicines. The solution to this problem is impossible without the formation of a highly qualified personnel potential that meets the demand and expectations of the pharmaceutical market and society as a whole. In this regard, in the system of training of pharmacists in recent years, quite dynamic and flexible transformations have been taking place, dictated by the urgent needs of domestic health care. It should be noted that in the process of implementing this educational standard, the competency-based approach to organizing the process of training modern pharmacists comes to the fore. One of the effective tools for the formation of professional competencies in various educational fields is the case study method. Case study is a training method based on the analysis of real situations from various areas of professional activity and contributing to the development of specialist competency. The competency-based orientation of the case study method is in line with modern ideas about the organization of the educational process for the training of pharmacists. The case study method is actively used in the process of teaching disciplines of the curriculum of the Federal State Budget Educational Establishment of Higher Education KubGMU of the Ministry of Health of Russia, specialty 33.05.01 Pharmacy. Examples of case study tasks as educational technology are presented in the work programs of the curriculum disciplines of the specialty 33.05.01 Pharmacy developed at the Department of Pharmacy. Depending on the content of the taught discipline, these tasks simulate a particular situation from the professional activities of pharmacists, offered to students for a comprehensive analysis and evaluation. The use of this educational technology contributes to the integration of knowledge, skills acquired in the learning process and their competency-based profiling in accordance with the current level of development of domestic health care.

INTRODUCTION Toward a vision of competency-based medical education (CBME) spanning the undergraduate to graduate medical education (GME) continuum, University of Minnesota Medical School (UMMS) developed the Subinternship in Critical Care (SICC) offered across specialties and sites. Explicit course objectives and assessments focus on internship preparedness, emphasizing direct observation of handovers (Core Entrustable Professional Activity, “EPA,” 8) and cross-cover duties (EPA 10). METHODS To evaluate students’ perceptions of the SICC's and other clerkships’ effectiveness toward internship preparedness, all 2016 and 2017 UMMS graduates in GME training ( n = 440) were surveyed regarding skill development and assessment among Core EPAs 1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10. Analysis included descriptive statistics plus chi-squared and Kappa agreement tests. RESULTS Respondents ( n = 147, response rate 33%) rated the SICC as a rotation during which they gained most competence among EPAs both more (#4, 57% rated important; #8, 75%; #10, 70%) and less explicit (#6, 53%; #9, 69%) per rotation objectives. Assessments of EPA 8 (80% rated important) and 10 (76%) were frequently perceived as important toward residency preparedness. Agreement between importance of EPA development and assessment was moderate (Kappa = 0.40-0.59, all surveyed EPAs). CONCLUSIONS Graduates’ perceptions support the SICC's educational utility and assessments. Based on this and other insight from the SICC, the authors propose implications toward collectively envisioning the continuum of physician competency.

The article presents a lapidary analysis of possibilities of using the case method and the project method in the formation of professional thinking of students studying philology and journalism. We also consider the possibilities of using case technology and project method in the process of studying professionally oriented disciplines. The practical significance of the work comes down to disclosing the effectiveness of the case method and the method of projects in the process of forming professional skills. The relevance of this article is determined by modern realities of educational process at the university. The case method and the method of projects make it possible to increase the motivational component of learning and contribute to the development of teachers’ progressive thinking and students’ creative potential, both of which are necessary for professional activities. In this article we also made an attempt at revealing the essence of these methods in the educational process at bachelor’s level. They turned out to be the main methods for the formation of students’ universal and professional competencies. The project method and case method act as an integral factor in the gamification of educational process contributing to the formation of skills of expedient action, activation of thinking, instilling the skills of independent search for solutions in standard and non-standard situations that may come up in the course of professional activity. Students actively and productively master the necessary competencies while revealing their latent potential. The case method and the project method demonstrate great efficiency in improving the quality of personnel training; the specific types of their practical implementation are developed jointly during classes by university teachers and employers’ representatives. The purpose of the article is to determine the methodological potential of the case method and the method of projects in the formation of professional thinking of future philologists and journalists and to consider the possibilities of using case technology and the project method in the process of studying professionally oriented disciplines. The project method is a relevant and effective technology that significantly increases the level of mastery of educational material, the internal motivation of students and their independence. The case method initiates the development of professional thinking, independence, unconventional thinking and creativity. When faced with a formulated problem, students concentrate on finding a solution to the problem and the teacher’s skillful interpretation of the problem directs students to search for non-standard ways. Everything mentioned above leads to the development of integrative thinking and significantly expands students’ capabilities. The practice of working with the case method and the project method in the classroom confirms their effectiveness in the professional development of university students, expanding their professional horizons and the formation of professional thinking.

ABSTRACT Background  Feedback conversations between preceptors and residents usually occur in closed settings. Little is known about how preceptors address the challenges posed by residents with different skill sets, performance levels, and personal contexts. Objective  This study explored the challenges that preceptors experienced and approaches taken in adapting feedback conversations to individual residents. Methods  In 2015, 18 preceptors participated in feedback simulations portraying residents with variations in skill, insight, confidence, and distress, followed by debriefing of the feedback conversation with a facilitator. These interactions were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using thematic and framework analysis. Results  The preceptors encountered common challenges with feedback conversations, including uncertainty in how to individualize feedback to residents and how to navigate tensions between resident- and preceptor-identified goals. Preceptors questioned their ability to enhance skills for highly performing residents, whether they could be directive when residents had insight gaps, how they could reframe the perceptions of the overly confident resident, and whether they should offer support to emotionally distressed residents or provide feedback about performance. Preceptors adapted their approach to feedback, drawing on techniques of coaching for highly performing residents, directing for residents with insight gaps, mediation with overly confident residents, and mentoring with emotionally distressed residents. Conclusions  Examining the feedback challenges preceptors encounter and the approaches taken to adapt feedback to individual residents can provide insight into how preceptors meet the challenges of competency-based medical education, in which frequent, focused feedback is essential for residents to achieve educational milestones and entrustable professional activity expectations.

Objective: Rising clinical demand and changes to Radiologists’ job plans mean it is becoming ever more difficult for Radiologists to teach medical students. The aim of this study was to assess the current role of Radiologists in undergraduate medical education in Scotland. Methods: Consultant Radiologists working across all 14 Scottish Health Boards were invited by email to participate in an anonymous short online survey. The survey ran for 6 weeks from November 2019. One reminder email was sent a week before the survey closed. Results: 102 responses were recorded, representing 34% of the total whole time equivalent Radiologists in Scotland. All agreed Radiology should be taught to medical students. Over 70% (n = 73) taught medical students, most often during supporting professional activity time. 76 percent of Radiologists who did not teach expressed a desire to do so. The most common barrier to teaching was not having enough time in their job plan. Scottish Radiologists delivered a median of 10 h (IQR 0–22) a year of teaching to medical students. Thematic analysis of free comments revealed staffing/time constraints severely limiting ability to teach. Conclusion: This is the first national survey to assess the current role of Radiologists in teaching medical students. While most are teaching or want to teach, there is a large drop-off between current Scottish and previously reported UK median teaching hours. Engagement from Universities, Royal College of Radiologists and Health Boards is urgently needed to reverse this trend. Advances in knowledge: This is the first national survey into the current role of Radiologists in undergraduate medical education. There is a large drop-off between current Scottish and previously reported UK median teaching hours.

SummaryFeedback is an essential part of the learning process. Feedback can be positive or negative, constructive or destructive, minimal or in depth. It must always occur and should never be ignored. The role of effective feedback is critical in the modern postgraduate medical educational process in the UK, with its emphasis on competency-based curricula and workplace-based assessment. Feedback is not new in medical education and has been shown in research to be effective in bringing about change, particularly improvement in clinical performance. There are clear principles and features of good and bad feedback and these are highlighted, along with descriptions of models for use in daily practice.
