We are excited to welcome Kristine Cline, Assistant Professor of Practice, The Ohio State University, who will present Addressing the Overpacked Suitcase to Pack Purpose into the Curriculum. The session will take place on Thursday, September 3, 2026, at 12:00 PM EDT, for the first week of the IAMSE 2026 Fall Webcast Audio Seminar Series titled “Mind the Gaps: Essential Conversations for Modern Health Professions Education.”
Some of the most pressing challenges in health professions education lie outside the traditional curriculum. From overfull course schedules and gaps in nutrition education to social media’s role in learning, critical thinking development, and faculty well-being, today’s educators are being asked to do more, and differently, than ever before.
Join the IAMSE Webcast Audio Seminar Series for five sessions with leaders in health professions tackling the issues shaping our profession right now. Whether you’re refining your curriculum, supporting learners, or trying to keep your faculty thriving, you’ll walk away with practical strategies and real perspectives you can actually use across the full spectrum of health professions education.
The full IAMSE Fall WAS schedule can be found on the series website.
What Really Matters: Student Perspectives on Exceptional Teaching
Presenter: Kristine Cline, Assistant Professor of Practice, The Ohio State University
Session Date & Time: September 3, 2026, at 12:00 PM EDT
Session Description: This session will explore the phenomenon of curricular expansion, also commonly referred to as curricular overload. With knowledge, skills, and best practices ever-changing in health professions practice it is challenging to balance the incorporation of new evidence-based practices into an already packed curriculum. Using the presenter’s experience in pharmacy education this session will explore evidence-based teaching practices of backwards design to address curricular expansion while also considering the emotional connection to the content we teach.
