Summary: Evaluations of TEL interventions mainly focus on outcomes and rarely report detailed information of the intervention or process (especially the usability). This information is essential for other educators to make decisions about adoption or adaption in their own context.

Learning Objectives:
 - Have an increased awareness of the importance of reporting process information about TEL interventions.
 - Develop core skills for designing and reporting evaluations of TEL interventions.

Anticipated Outcomes:
The intended outcome is an increase in the quality of the design and reporting of evaluations of TEL interventions.

Summary: Student government plays a pivatol role in representing the student body, advocating for organizational changes, managing clubs, and collating all social and community outreach events. However, during this pandemic, student leaders have found themselves tackling unexpected duties and expanded their educational roles. This webinar will provide insights into maximizing the relationship between student leaders and medical education leaders to create an enhanced learning environment.

Learning Objectives
Students will learn how to bolster their leadership and better engage with class leadership and educators during this pandemic; and leaders how to adapt to future educational crisis from our perspectives. Educational leaders, teachers, and medical students should join us on this one-off AMEE open-dialogue webinar.

Anticipated Outcomes:
Teachers will learn how to maximally utilize student leaders to create an allyship between faculty and the class.

Summary: Temporal trends have demonstrated that rates of inadvertent patient harm during medical care are not decreasing. Common root causes of adverse events include poor communication and human factors. Knowledge acquisition and skill development in these areas are often sub optimally integrated in undergraduate (UME) or graduate medical education (GME). 
This webinar series will explore approaches to patient safety from around the world.

Education Needs to be Addressed:
This webinar will address the gap in patient safety knowledge and skills within current UME and GME curricula.

Aim/Learning Objectives:
1. Summarize the content and available resources for patient safety curriculum including a systems approach to unsafe conditions and adverse events; teamwork and communication skills; and an understanding of human factors.
2. Apply a framework for patient safety curriculum delivery based on format (e.g. didactic, case studies, online, simulation, real experience) and learner level.

Target Audience:
Medical educators (UME, GME, both); patient safety and quality improvement officers; clinical faculty; physicians; nurses; allied healthcare professionals; administrators.

Summary: The problem will be identified, the ecological crisis our planet is facing and its impacts on health and well-being. This webinar will outline AMEE's support for sustainability which has led to the development of a Consensus Statement on Planetary Health and Sustainable HC education. The CS is a guide for HC educators as it offers suggestions in terms of learning outcomes, activities and assessment as well as providing a range of useful links for various resources that can be used. Practical examples will be provided.

Introduction:
Most HP curricula do not include planetary health or sustainable health care. The current generation of HP students need to be prepared for dealing with a different world but more importantly need to be a part of the solution through leadership and innovation.

Educational Needs or Gaps to be Addressed:
How to integrate planetary health and sustainable healthcare into the various HP curricula as this will be new for many educators.

Anticipated Outcomes:
Discussion about how the CS can guide the integration planetary health and sustainable healthcare into health professions curricula, with practical examples. Networking and collaboration opportunities as well as raising awareness of how sustainable healthcare (or lack of) affects health. Participants will have:

1. Explored and reflected on the Consensus Statement and curricular examples.
2. Identified challenges and strategies for its implementation within their context.

Target Audience:
All HP educators; students; curriculum developers.

Summary: Online medical education has become a necessity over the past year because of the COVID-19 pandemic. While digital platforms now allow us to reach large, even international audiences at little or no cost, we often find ourselves developing and maintaining custom curricular content in silos despite having limited resources at our institutions. This is a missed opportunity for a global community sharing, outreach and collaboration especially during these extraordinary times.

Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to -
1.  Identify benefits and challenges to developing open, sharable digital curriculum.
2.  Describe case examples of shared curriculum.
3.  Discuss digital tools and practical strategies for shared curriculum development.

Anticipated Outcomes:
This webinar should encourage educators globally to become more engaged in shared online curriculum development. The webinar should generate interest in a planned series of workshops that will provide educators to further develop skills and competencies in developing shared curriculum development.

Target Audience:
This webinar is for educators with an interest in developing open digital curricular materials that can be shared with the global education community.
