The Adapt model
INTRODUCTION: Healthcare systems rely on a skilled and diverse workforce to deliver patient-centred care across settings. Rising patient acuity, rapid technological change, and interprofessional collaboration have heightened expectations for graduates to be "practice-ready" on entry to the workforce. Health professions education (HPE) must therefore extend beyond discipline-specific knowledge to prepare graduates for real-world practice. Employer…
Operationalising readiness for practice in final OSCEs
BACKGROUND: Readiness for practice (RFP) is a critical outcome for medical education, reflecting a graduate’s ability to transition from student to clinician. Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) play a pivotal role in evaluating RFP. This study aimed to investigate the conceptualisation and operationalisation of RFP within the OSCE context and evaluate the contribution of a newly developed RFP-focused rating tool compared to tradit…
Turning struggles into strengths
INTRODUCTION: Academic difficulty in medical education has potentially negative impacts on students, faculties, and healthcare institutions. A traditional deficit view of the phenomenon offers a limited perspective that narrows student support opportunities and neglects intrapersonal strengths and successes arising from student adversity and struggle. This study explores the lived experiences of medical students and junior doctors who surmounted …

Employing a qualitative phenomenological approach, this study gathered in-depth insights from A…
Managing assessment during curriculum change
Curriculum change is relatively frequent in health professional education. Formal, planned curriculum review must be conducted periodically to incorporate new knowledge and skills, changing teaching and learning methods or changing roles and expectations of graduates. Unplanned curriculum evolution arguably happens continually, usually taking the form of "minor" changes that in combination over time may produce a substantially different programme…

Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive a…
Identifying emerging topics in the peer-reviewed literature to facilitate curriculum renewal and development
This article reports a bibliometric analysis of emerging topics in the psychiatric literature indexed in the MEDLINE database as a technique for renewal of clinical training curricula. Summary data of English-language articles indexed in the MEDLINE database between 1971-2018 were downloaded. Emerging topics in nine demi-decades between 1972-1976 and 2012-2016 were identified by the incremental incidence of individual Medical Subject Headings (Me…
Twelve tips for improving the quality of assessor judgements in senior medical student clinical assessments
Assessment of senior medical students is usually calibrated at the level of achieving expected learning outcomes for graduation. Recent research reveals that clinical assessors often balance two slightly different perspectives on this benchmark. The first is the formal learning outcomes at graduation, ideally as part of a systematic, program-wide assessment approach that measures learning achievement, while the second is consideration of the cand…

Developing a community of practice for quality assurance within healthcare assessment
BACKGROUND: The Australian Collaboration for Clinical Assessment in Medicine (ACCLAiM) is a voluntary assessment consortium, involving medical schools nationwide. The aims of ACCLAiM are to benchmark student clinical assessment outcomes and to provide quality assurance (QA) of exit-level Objective Structured Clinical Exams (OSCEs). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the ACCLAiM QA process for optimising OSCE delivery standards at the memb…
Australian School Stakeholders’ Perceived Strategies for Preventing Adolescent Obesity
Adolescent obesity is a complex multifactorial disease with a combination of environmental, behavioral, psychosocial, biological, cultural and genetic determinants. It remains a global public health issue that presents a major challenge to chronic disease prevention and health into adulthood.

The ‘PRICE’ of Physical Activity Referral Schemes (Pars)
Evidence-based strategies are needed to curb the growing cases of physical inactivity related morbidities. Delivering holistic care through collaborative shared decision making could boost the effectiveness of physical activity referral schemes (PARS) and foster the quality of care for patients with multimorbidity. A qualitative study involving semi-structured telephone interviews was utilised to gain insights from Australian PARS stakeholders (g…
