The mission of the International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE) is to advance health profession education through teacher development and to ensure that the teaching and learning of medical science continues to be firmly grounded in foundational sciences and the best practices of teaching. We strive to achieve this by: providing multidisciplinary, interprofessional and cross-cultural forums for discussion of issues affecting medical science education and educators; designing and evaluating current and innovative means to teach the sciences fundamental to health professions, and sharing the results for the development of all health professions educators and; serving as an international voice to enhance appreciation of the crucial role of medical sciences in health and health care.
IAMSE Toolkits will provide information on a topic that is relevant specifically to health professions educators. The toolkits will be created and presented in a unique way to be practical for IAMSE members at their home institutions. An example of a current IAMSE Toolkit can be found here. Toolkits can vary in presentation and style, but ideally will address one of the following categories:
- Assessment
- Curriculum Development
- E-Learning
- Instructional Methods
- Interprofessional Education
- Technology and Innovation
- Student Support
- Faculty Development
- Educational Scholarship
Toolkits directed to a category not listed here will be considered given sufficient justification. At this time, we are not accepting submissions for discipline-specific scientific content.
