| Abstrakt: | Abstract: High-quality precision education (PE) aims to enhance outcomes for learners and society by incorporating longitudinal data and analytics to shape personalized learning strategies. However, existing educational data collection methods often suffer from fragmentation, leading to gaps in understanding learner and program performance. In this article, the authors present a novel approach to PE at the University of Cincinnati, focusing on the Ambulatory Long Block, a year-long continuous ambulatory group-practice experience. Over the last 17 years, the Ambulatory Long Block has evolved into a sophisticated data collection and analysis system that integrates feedback from various stakeholders, as well as learner self-assessment, electronic health record utilization information, and clinical throughput metrics. The authors detail their approach to data prioritization, collection, analysis, visualization, and feedback, providing a practical example of PE in action. This model has been associated with improvements in both learner performance and patient care outcomes. The authors also highlight the potential for real-time data review through automation and emphasize the importance of collaboration in advancing PE. Generalizable principles include designing learning environments with continuity as a central feature, gathering both quantitative and qualitative performance data from interprofessional assessors, using this information to supplement traditional workplace-based assessments, and pairing it with self-assessments. The authors advocate for criterion referencing over normative comparisons, using user-friendly data visualizations, and employing tailored coaching strategies for individual learners. The Ambulatory Long Block model underscores the potential of PE to drive improvements in medical education and health care outcomes. (Copyright © 2023 the Association of American Medical Colleges.) |
