2/ Tip 7 - Abandon Objectives

The chief resident has started on time, asked questions, engaged learners, embraced silence, managed faculty, modeled humility...

Then says:

“Okay. We have 5 minutes left. Let’s quickly talk about this slide...”

😱🤯
3/ Abandon Objectives - Ever fill a water balloon?

Ever try to get the water balloon super juicy by trying to squeeze in that last drop of water and then have the whole thing sadly explode?

Teaching is like that.

Try to cram in too much knowledge and you risk losing it all.
4/ Abandon Objectives - Those Last 5 Minutes

🔥New content delivered in the last 5 minutes of report is often not retained because:
⚡️Content delivery is rushed
⚡️Learners brains are 🤯
⚡️Learners are getting distracted watching the 🕐
5/ Abandon Objectives - Plan but Be Flexible

🕐If you have more than 3 objectives for report, you will likely run out of time
🕐Divide your time into 4ths & determine where in the case you want to be
🕐Cut objectives if running late or if another topic warrants more discussion
6/ Tip 8 - Consolidate Learning

Some studies show that without repetition 50% of new knowledge from a talk is forgotten within HOURS.

Instead of reviewing a new topic in the last 5 minutes of report, include a consolidation activity that will improve retention!
7/ Consolidate Learning - Strategies

Try the consolidation techniques below to reinforce your main takeaways, depending on how much time you have to prepare & deliver the consolidation activity.
8/ Consolidate Learning - Spaced Repetition

Also consider ways to review learning points from prior reports:

⚡️Include review @ the beginning of report when waiting for more learners to show up
⚡️Play a game reviewing prior report learning points. Ex of my report jeopardy👇🏼
