In support of this, the interactive online self-assessment tool allows preceptors to self-identify their teaching competency areas and highlight areas of interest for future improvement. The results from the self-assessment tool contain links to faculty development content on TeachingPhysician.org. Preceptors can do this for their own benefit, or in an effort to fulfill the requirements of the Performance Improvement credit. The results of the self-assessment are private, and you need only share them with your institution if you choose to.
In the last week, communities across the nation have taken a stand against injustice and racism. Family medicine educators have long been role models in seeking health equity and furthering inclusivity in our clinics, schools, and institutions. We have an opportunity to educate and empower medical students and residents to make a positive difference in their communities. We’ve gathered a partial list of resources on TeachingPhysician.org related to health equity, unconscious bias, and diversity that you may find helpful. Access to these pages is now free. You will not need to sign in to read them and you are welcome to share them with anyone you feel would benefit from their content.
