Abstract

Background
Healthcare professionals must provide high quality care that is both efficient and safe. Underpinning this requirement is a presumption
that individuals are able to make accurate clinical decisions. Knowledge is not sufficient: judgment and reasoning are required to translate clinical information into accurate decisions to produce
effective care. Clinical reasoning skills need to be developed in healthcare professionals in a way that produces change in behaviour. This is aplies to the spectrum of healthcare education: from undergraduate to postgraduate to lifelong practice. Though much is understood about clinical decision-making theory, direction for systematic implementation of teaching in both undergraduate
and postgraduate medical education programmes is lacking. In particular, evidence describing transformative teaching methods is limited. This workshop will explore how to design effective
spiral curricula in clinical reasoning, compare and contrast experiences from three medical schools in the UK, discuss challenges in implementation, share a variety of teaching methods, provide hands on demonstration of technological resources that have produced changes in learner behaviour and support attendees to adapt methodology to their programmes.

Structure of workshop
We will briefly review current knowledge on clinical decision-making learning before sharing experiences from three UK medical schools.
Attendees will participate in discussions supported by interactive exercises to explore each subtopic. These exercises will include role play, video and trial of electronic teaching tools used in our current
practice. The session will conclude with a reflection on principles and ideas shared during the event.
