    Abstract Objectives: Most teaching activities pivoted to virtual during COVID-19. Demanding schedules necessitated brief, asynchronous, and widely disseminated professional development to encourage connection and reinforce educator identity. We created and disseminated micro virtual asynchronous educator development while engaging educators from interprofessional backgrounds to co-create teaching tips. We undertook educational evaluation to understand the impact of our educational initiative, measured along 2 professional development dimensions offering contexts for learning-the individual or independent experience, and the group or collective experience-which served as an organizing framework from which to interpret our results.
    Methods: Between June 2020 and July 2021, 74 educators at our institution were asked to participate in our "One Minute Teaching Tips" initiative by providing a brief tip or pearl. Each tip was edited, prepared as a high-quality infographic, and shared via: (1) website; (2) digital monitors; (3) newsletter; and (4) Twitter (now X). Quantitative metrics measuring website and Twitter engagement were analyzed descriptively and to determine distinctions among key variables. Participants answered a brief survey and directed content analysis was utilized to analyze the open-ended responses.
    Results: Fifty educators (67.5%) participated. Among those, 45 (90%) completed the survey. Tips were accessed via website 1447 times, averaging 28.9/week. The average tweet garnered 43.2 engagements. Six categories aligned with the individual dimension: participants engaged meaningfully, considered prior experience, relied on educational principles, focused on interest or passion, reflected on teaching practices, and experienced reinforced professional identity. Six categories aligned with the collective dimension: participants felt the initiative supported institutional need, was visible to the community, encouraged engagement with other tips, supported inclusive participation, brought value within the community, and showcased education.
    Conclusion: Our initiative aligns with a contemporary understanding of professional development and was impactful along individual and collective dimensions. Similar initiatives could be developed in alignment with accreditation requirements.

    Abstract Background: Simulation offers a means to assess resident competence in communication, but pediatric standardized patient simulation has limitations. A novel educational technology, avatar patients (APs), holds promise, but its acceptability to residents, educational relevance, and perception of realism have not been determined.
    Objective: To determine if APs are acceptable, provide a relevant educational experience, and are realistic for teaching and assessment of a complex communication topic.
    Methods: Pediatric residents at one academic institution participated in an AP experience from 2019 to 2021 consisting of 2 scenarios representing issues of medical ambiguity. After the experience, residents completed a survey on the emotional relevance, realism, and acceptability of the technology for assessment of their communication competence.
    Results: AP actor training required approximately 3 hours. Software and training was provided free of charge. Actors were paid $30/hour; the total estimated curricular cost is $50,000. Sixty-five of 89 (73%) pediatric residents participated in the AP experience; 61 (93.8%) completed the survey. Forty-eight (78.7%) were emotionally invested in the scenarios. The most cited emotions evoked were anxiety, uncertainty, concern, and empathy. The conversations were rated by 49 (80.3%) as realistic. APs were rated as beneficial for learning to communicate about medical ambiguity by 40 (65.5%), and 41 (66.7%) felt comfortable having APs used to assess their competence in this area.
    Conclusions: Pediatric residents were emotionally invested in the AP experience and found it to be realistic. The experience was rated as beneficial for learning and acceptable to be used for assessment of how to communicate medical ambiguity.

    Abstract Background: The relationship between nurses and interns affects the quality of patient care; efforts to improve this relationship are necessary for optimal care. Previously, relationship formation was found to depend on mutual trust, respect, effective communication, and undergoing the process of role formation, all of which require time. This led to the hypothesis that instituting a Nurse/Intern Partnership Program (NIPP) would accelerate relationship formation.
    Methods: Using a semi-structured interview guide, prior to NIPP implementation, one nurse (n = 5) and 2 second-year resident (total n = 6) focus groups were held. After implementation, one nurse (n = 6) and one intern (n = 9) focus group were held. The focus group data were analyzed using the 5 stages of qualitative research framework.
    Results: Thematic data analysis with 3 independent coders supported the previously developed model of relationship formation; the NIPP accelerated relationship formation between nurses and interns through creating an early ally, improving communication, and increasing role understanding. The program may have improved the culture of the pediatric unit. The interns reported more of a positive impact of the NIPP on nurse/intern relationship than the nurses.
    Conclusions: The NIPP was positively received by pediatric residents and nurses and successfully accelerated relationship formation between the 2 groups.

    Abstract Background: Health care research is a common undergraduate health sciences requirement. There is limited literature regarding course structure, content, or learning outcomes; most courses have traditionally been taught through didactic lecture. This is misaligned with Generation Y learner values, as they desire guided learning, real-world examples, active engagement, learning through doing, and psychological safety.
    Methods: A "journal club" approach to teaching health care research was implemented at Northeastern University in Fall 2018. Each session involved (1) a moment of reflection; (2) an introduction to the topic; (3) 1 student methods report presentation; (4) 2 student "journal club" self-directed structured article summary presentations; (5) large-group discussion; (6) plus/delta feedback to instructor. Each student completed 2 "journal club" and 1 methods presentations, 6 peer reviews, CITI research training, a quality improvement survey, and a final course reflection. We utilized a convergent mixed-methods educational evaluation, integrating data from 3 distinct sources-a quality improvement survey, final student course reflections, and Plus/Delta feedback-which were analyzed via thematic analysis. The Northeastern University Institutional Review Board exempted the study.
    Results: Students appreciated the course structure and reported confidence in their critical appraisal abilities. Four qualitative themes emerged: (1) enabled a high degree of growth as students and scholars; (2) designed in thoughtful and unique format; (3) initially intimidated students and was academically challenging; and (4) prioritized and enabled psychological safety.
    Conclusions: Although initially intimidating and admittedly challenging, undergraduate health sciences students applauded the course's curricular design and enabling of psychological safety, which aligned with Generation Y learner values, ultimately leading to growth in perceived and realized confidence and ability to critically review research articles.

    Abstract Introduction: We applied Azjen's theory of planned behavior (TPB) and Triandis' theory of interpersonal behavior (TIB) to understand medical students' intention to change behavior based on feedback received during an obstetrics and gynecology clerkship. Both models presume that behavioral intention is strongly related to actual behavior.

    Abstract Background: Clinicians must learn to care for patients from different cultures. They must also work in teams for optimal outcomes. Few studies have analysed the intersection of cross-cultural care and interprofessional education. We completed a needs assessment to determine what paediatric residents and nurses view as essential cross-cultural components.
    Methods: We led a sequential mixed-methods study of residents and nurses at an urban tertiary care centre. We administered the 'Residency Training in Cross Cultural Care' instrument. Survey results informed focus group interview guide development. Thematic analysis of qualitative data was conducted following the five stages to qualitative research framework.
    Findings: Thirty-five residents (70%) and 46 nurses (66%) completed the survey. Five residents and six nurses attended a focus group. Five themes resulted: 1) lack of clinician diversity and cross-cultural training, 2) effective cross-cultural care not always delivered, 3) multiple challenges for delivery of effective cross-cultural care, 4) call to action for enhanced cross-cultural education and 5) different cross-cultural educational needs between nurses and residents.
    Discussion: Residents and nurses conveyed that meaningful cross-cultural care education is imperative, lacking, and must offer skills to improve patient care. They call for a robust cross-cultural curriculum that is up to date and teaches about intersectionality.
    Conclusion: We have used this data to implement interprofessional interventions to meet their unique learning needs and enhance upstander skills by using facilitated discussions of techniques, case studies and role plays. Ultimately, teaching all clinicians to care for patients of other cultures may lead to more equitable care.
