Held the 1st Friday of each month, a faculty facilitator presents an overview of article(s) from an educational journal to identify current trends and practices in medical education or educational research.
This month, our review is led by Dr. David Pinson.
The article: Candace J. Chow, Laura E. Hirshfield & Tasha R. Wyatt (2021): Sharpening Our Tools: Conducting Medical Education Research Using Critical Theory, Teaching and Learning in Medicine, DOI:10.1080/10401334.2021.1946401
From the abstract.......In this paper, we go beyond merely describing critical theory and demonstrate how critical theory can be used as an analytic approach to interrogate the experiences of minoritized individuals in medical education. Using three critical theories: critical race theory, feminist theory, and postcolonial theory, we provide an illustration of how researchers might approach their data using one of three critical theories. In doing so, we hope to assist researchers in better understanding the utility of critical analyses to illuminate sociohistorical forces at work within medical education.
