Teachers Seminar Programming

Teachers Seminar: Inclusive Teaching: A Strategy to Reach ALL Learners

The Teacher Seminar will focus on identifying ways to be intentional and inclusive in your teaching. Inclusive teaching refers to a learning environment in which all students, regardless of background and personal characteristics, are provided the opportunity to meet their learning potential. To effectively do this, it is imperative that teachers have an in-depth understanding of themselves—their teaching style, motivation, emotional intelligence, grit, resilience, among others. 

Participants will be provided strategies to get to know themselves and their students, and how this knowledge collectively can contribute to an enhanced learning experience. Case-based scenarios will be discussed to allow application of strategies to different learning environments. Participants will be encouraged to utilize one or more of these strategies upon return to their institution and to take a scholarly approach to their inclusive teaching implementation.

Pre-registration required. Fee $99.

MONDAY, July 13 1:00 p.m.–2:00 p.m.

Opening General Session: A Lawyer’s Prescription for Pharmacists’ Role in Achieving Health Equity

Racial, ethnic and socioeconomic health disparities in the United States are well documented but the causes are still poorly understood. This presentation will identify some causes that are uniquely within reach of pharmacists to address. Pharmacists and their educators are a vital and central key to defeating unjust and avoidable health disparities. Pharmacists are often the most accessible, trusted healthcare professional available to underserved patient populations. Moreover, pharmacists are often intimately familiar with the neighborhood, environmental and family contexts in which patients live, work and play. As educators that train the professionals who are proximate to vulnerable patient populations, faculty are uniquely positioned to reduce and even eradicate disparities in vaccine coverage, substance dependency, diabetes, asthma and more. The presentation will identify biases that stand in the way of solutions that could dramatically reduce health disparities in America, and conclude by suggesting that the members of AACP hold the key to the prescription for health equity.

(Speaker) Dayna Matthew, University of Virginia, School of Law

Science Plenary: The New Science of Wellness and What it Means for 21st Century Medicine

Healthcare is becoming more proactive and data–rich, with increasing focus on maintaining and enhancing wellness beyond just reacting to disease. The Institute of Systems Biology has assembled a data set of thousands of people who participated in a “scientific wellness” program integrating genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, microbiomes, clinical chemistries and wearable devices coupled with health coaching for behavior change. The resulting personal, dense, dynamic data (PD3) clouds (Price et al., Nature Biotechnology, 2017) provide a powerful platform for scientific discovery, where deep longitudinal data enables detection of the earliest transition states between wellness and disease. Dr. Nathan Price will discuss how the interpretation of these data led to actionable findings for individuals to improve health, reduce risk drivers of disease, understand how genetic risk manifests in the body throughout life (e.g., in Alzheimer’s disease) and show individual trajectories into disease (e.g., cancers). In addition, Dr. Price will describe what the data shows about healthy aging, how insights into human biology (e.g., microbiome–human metabolome connections, Wilmanski et al., Nature Biotechnology, 2019) can be drawn from the data and conclude with a big picture view of how this endeavor relates to the future of healthcare.

Near Perfect Syndrome: Disease- Centric to Patient-Centric Collaborative Model, Integrating Acronyms LEARN, PACE and OARS into QuEST/SCHOLAR-MAC Framework

QuEST/SCHOLAR-MAC model is the gold standard in Self-Care patient counseling simulations. Mimicking the Pharmacist Patient Care Process model (PPCP), the QuEST/SCHOLAR-MAC provides the simplest framework for quick assess and recommendation to patients. Focusing on patient-centric collaborative model rather than disease-centric, more is needed to address the patient’s needs. Engaging students in such movement/practice experience unleashed the truth about this myth. Perfecting it requires an integration of key acronyms/concepts -Cultural humility-LEARN, relational elements-PACE, motivational interviewing core skills-OARS into the gold standard model. Teaching in teams is becoming popular due to innovative curriculum integration strategies. Learning to plan and merge content, teaching styles, and assessments of a teaching team can often be challenging and takes time to achieve.

Administering StrengthsFinder is Not Enough: Advancing Professional Development Curricula By Identifying AND Building Student Talents

Administering the StrengthsFinder assessment can result in significant “aha moments” for students. However, without intentional strengths application in curricula, strengths utilization and development may not automatically follow. As the employment market shifts and evolves, students must be prepared to differentiate themselves and provide evidence of their talents. To assist, faculty can craft strengths “touchpoints” within curricula, monitor strengths self-efficacy, and examine data to identify areas where pharmacy students excel and struggle in using their talents/strengths.

Seeking Enhanced Learner Engagement? Have You Tried Vulnerability?

In her 2010 TED Talk, Brené Brown described vulnerability as the practice of uncertainty, risk and emotional exposure. What is the evidence surrounding vulnerability and student engagement? How can this practice address CAPE Domain 4: Personal and Professional Development? This session will discuss vulnerability as a way to engage learners and how to model this behavior for learners. Attendees will identify ways to express vulnerability as well as create a learning environment that fosters vulnerability.

Strategies to Reinforce Mathematical Skills Among Pharm.D. Students

Anecdotal evidence suggest that mathematical skills are inherently week for the students entering pharmacy program. However, approximately, one-third of the NAPLEX content includes questions pertaining to calculations. This section strives to incorporate strategies to enhance student comprehension of mathematical and analytical skills. In addition, this session will also attempt to explore ways for improving student compounding and dispensing skills that are needed in the pharmacy practice settings.

Teaching is Teaching: Does Discipline Really Make a Difference?

There is science behind learning and good teaching utilizes this to design instruction. However, there is often debate (and even AACP programming) centered around the differences between teaching “science” and “practice” within pharmacist training. Is teaching different disciplines that different? Could we synergize efforts by facilitating critical thinking, including making connections across disciplines, to enhance learner development? This session will focus on these questions and apply the science of learning to various avenues of instruction.

The Assessment Hat (or Hats!) We All Wear: Assessment Across an Array of Faculty Roles

Faculty wear multiple hats as pharmacy educators and one example is in assessment, since it is an area of shared responsibility among all faculty. This session will characterize common “hats” faculty wear in assessment (e.g., exam item writing, rubric development, assessing teaching). Participants will learn how assessment practices extend across various faculty roles, including those with or without formal assessment titles, and gain practical strategies to adapt to their own faculty role.

The Little Search Engine That Could: Literature Appraisal and Data Synthesis Skills for APPE Readiness

This session highlights a creative interdepartmental approach used in a hybrid IPPE course. Adding to traditional teaching methods, faculty utilize an escape room and literature searching modules to incorporate skills needed to execute a literature review. Using a clinical question, students are guided through a controlled patient scenario to locate and appraise research. This preparation is integral to fostering information retention, APPE readiness, and long-term success as educated consumers and producers of biomedical literature.

Use of a Warm Hand-off Interprofessional Simulation to Model Asynchronous and Patient-Centered Teamwork

Traditionally, most IPE simulations are in synchronous team settings, but a large portion of outpatient-based healthcare occurs asynchronously. Best practices for asynchronous teamwork involves an interprofessional communication technique called a warm hand-off. Warm hand-offs integrate and coordinate care between healthcare providers while including the patient. This session will introduce warm hand-offs, describe a warm hand-off evaluation checklist, and share the components and results of a warm hand-off simulation with pharmacy and social work students.
