“There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don’t know we don’t know.”

Key SBHPE Research Concepts
• Mastery Learning
• Deliberate Practice
Mastery LearningFeatures1. Baseline, i.e., diagnostic testing;2. Clear learning objectives, units ordered by difficulty;3. Educational activities (e.g., deliberate skills practice)
focused on objectives;4. Minimum passing mastery standard (MPS) for each unit;5. Formative testing → mastery of each unit;6. Advancement if performance ≥ MPS; or7. Continued practice or study until MPS is reached8. Time varies, outcomes are uniform

“Deliberate practice is a concept that is not currently found in the nursing lexicon.”
(Clapper & Kardong-Edgren, 2012)Clinical Simulation in Nursing
• Randomized trial• 6-min. monthly
practice sessions• Voice-activated
manikin (VAM)• Sig. improvement in
Practice vs. Control group
• Clinical outcome measures
Clinical Outcome Measures
• Compression rate and depth• Percent of compressions performed with
adequate depth• Percent performed with correct hand
placement• Ventilation rate and volume• Percent of ventilations with adequate
volume
Key Result
“By practicing only 6 min. a month, students maintained or improved their CPR skills over the 12-month period.”
Oermann, Kardong-Edgren, Odom-MaryonResuscitation 2011; 82: 447-453
CPR Skill RetentionChest compressions goal: depth of at least 38 mm
Control group: ~ ½ compressions adequate depthPractice group: sig. more compressions adequate
depthVentilation goal: volume greater than 500 ml
Control group: ventilation skills ↓ over 1 yearPractice group: maintained ventilation skills over
1 year

Nine Lessons Learned1. ML with DP is a key feature of SBHPE programs aimed at boosting
skill and knowledge acquisition among medical learners at all levels—strong, integrated, sustained
2. Robust measures yielding reliable data that permit valid decisions or inferences are a key feature of SBHPE
3. Rater training and constant calibration are essential4. No correlation between medical knowledge (USMLE scores) and
clinical skill acquisition5. ML model depends on setting high MPSs6. Self-assessments are biased, poor relation to performance measured
objectively7. ML with DP cannot be done “on the cheap.”8. Follow-up testing and remediation are needed to assure retention9. Implementation science
McGaghie (2008)
Ten Research Opportunities1. Rely on randomized trials? No, mastery learning!2. Stretch the measurement endpoint: T1 → T2 → T3 →
T4 ($, R, CE)3. Study DP features and quality4. Rigorous research designs5. Measurement [metric] development6. SBHPE affective consequences7. Skill maintenance8. Faculty development9. UTOST model: unit + treatment + observation + setting
+ time10. Team science
McGaghie (2008)
Attributes of Productive Academic Teams• Shared goals—common mission & vision• Functional diversity• Clear leadership—may change or rotate• Shared mental models & language• High standards, recognition, & credit• Sustained hard work / commitment• Physical proximity• Minimize status differences within the team• Maximize status of the team• Shared activities that breed trust

Six Challenges for the Health Professions
1. Technology works!2. Power of inertia3. Hard work4. SBHPE: more than skill acquisition5. Fun & exciting6. Scholarship opportunities
