    SEL Mismatch: Aligning the Template with Reality

    Webinar (Open)

    May 20, 01:00 PM - 02:00 PM (ET)

    The Structured Evaluative Letter (SEL) was first developed in 2021 in response to the Coalition for Physician Accountability’s recommendations. Since then, the AAIM SEL Work Group (SEL WG) has been established to assess the SEL’s efficacy and develop educational recommendations to support its broader adoption within the internal medicine community.

    In November 2025, the SEL WG conducted semi-structured interviews with SEL authors who fully adopted, partially adopted, or chose not to adopt the SEL Template. One key challenge identified was the misalignment between the SEL and existing UME assessment tools, highlighting the need for effective translation across systems.

    To address this challenge, webinar presenters will:

    • Offer guidance on developing a framework to support translation across varying grading criteria
    • Share best practices for adapting the SEL to institutional data and needs and
    • Provide technical resources and practical tips for data management and translation

    Teaching Clinical Reasoning to Clerkship Students in the Classroom

    Webinar (Open)

    Jun 2, 02:30 PM - 03:30 PM (ET)

    Students often find the transition from pre-clinical to clinical learning challenging because it is not always obvious how they should analyze patient presentations in real time. Students first observe and learn clinical reasoning from their teaching residents and faculty in clinical venues. In these clinical settings, learning is often more observational where students seek to emulate systematic frameworks they observe.

    Clerkship didactics are also important teaching venues to develop students’ clinical reasoning skills. Didactics offer students the opportunity to discuss and understand systematic frameworks through clinical cases. There are several foundational clinical reasoning frameworks from the literature that can be taught to students. Some examples include problem representation (a synthesized summary highlighting the defining features of a case) and illness scripts (a summary of one’s knowledge about a particular disease). Furthermore, there are clear evidence-based strategies for teaching clinical reasoning effectively in the classroom setting. When students learn clinical reasoning in didactics and apply these skills clinically, they are more likely to be conscious and confident in the different steps of clinical reasoning.

    In this session, we will outline these frameworks and teaching strategies, using our two institutions as case studies. We will provide a handout of a guide to clinical reasoning curriculum development for future reference.

    Six Steps in the Right Direction: Incorporating Social Determinants of Health into Medical Education

    Webinar (Open)

    Jun 8, 01:00 PM - 02:00 PM (ET)
    Both AAMC and ACGME identify competencies for trainees in social determinants/drivers of health (SDoH). However, educators may encounter constraints in designing or implementing high quality SDoH curricula, in particular curricula that integrate appropriately aligned objectives, educational strategies, and evaluations.
    This webinar will provide an adapted framework for incorporating SDoH objectives into curricula based on the Kern six-step approach to curriculum development. Although the presenters will focus on undergraduate and graduate medical education (UME, GME), the talk is relevant to educators who may want to create or adapt curricula for all learners.  Presenters will highlight each of the steps, identifying key action items and considerations specific to SDoH curricula. Presenters will suggest strategies to strengthen participants’ SDoH curricula, including inclusion of cognitive or psychomotor objectives and development of powerful evaluations. For each step, presenters will share lessons learned from UME and GME curricula that they have designed and implemented at their home institutions.
    By the end of the webinar, participants will have the tools to develop an effective blueprint for their curriculum – whether creating a new curriculum or adapting an existing one to better achieve SDoH objectives. Presenters will then facilitate an open discussion of successes and barriers to curriculum implementation.
