Rapidly changing technology and demographics of health workforce require innovation across the continuum of health professions education. Using classic theories of teaching and learning, instructional design, and behavioural sciences, students in this seminar course will explore evidence-based frameworks, tools, and techniques to lead and transform medical education programs and curriculum. Upon completion of this course, students will be able to: 1) Apply design thinking and design processes to identify and meet learner needs. 2) Incorporate evidence-based teaching techniques to design learner-centered educational programs. 3) Implement educational innovation projects in complex practice settings. 4) Develop strategies to assess learner outcomes and evaluation program outcomes.

Objectives: this course will be delivered through online lectures, videos, expert panels, group discussions, and case-based exercises. Students are expected to be active participants in the learning process, creating their own learning experiences through critical reflection and analysis.
