Abstract

Background

Personal learning plans (PLPs) have gained traction in postgraduate medical education as an avenue for enhancing resident learning. However, implementing PLPs in real-world education settings presents unique challenges. To realise the potential of PLPs, we must understand the factors that influence the quality of PLP implementation. The purpose of this study was to explore the use and implementation of PLPs during residency training from the residents' and academic advisors' perspectives within a competency-based residency programme.

Methods

We conducted semi-structured interviews with residents (n = 18) and academic advisors (n = 9) in an Internal Medicine residency programme at a Canadian academic centre. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed using open coding.

Findings

Three higher order themes were developed to represent the participants' perceptions of implementing PLPs in a competency-based residency programme: (a) setting the stage for learning, (b) fostering meaningful engagement and (c) learning through reflection. Results indicated that implementing PLPs requires collaboration between residents and academic advisors and supports from the broader programme and institution. PLP implementation is an iterative process that can provide a salient avenue for reflection and the development of self-regulation skills.

Discussion and Conclusion

PLPs can be a useful tool to foster self-regulated learning skills in residency education. It is imperative to consider how social and environmental supports can be enacted to facilitate engagement with, and implementation of, PLPs.

探索住院医师计划中个人学习计划的观点。

背景:个人学习计划(PLPs)作为提高住院医师学习的一种途径，在研究生医学教育中得到了广泛的关注。然而，在现实世界的教育环境中实施plp面临着独特的挑战。要发挥公共服务计划的潜力，我们必须了解影响公共服务计划实施质量的因素。本研究的目的是从住院医师和学术顾问的角度，探讨在以能力为基础的住院医师培训中，plp的使用和实施。方法:我们对加拿大某学术中心内科住院医师项目的住院医师(n = 18)和学术顾问(n = 9)进行了半结构化访谈。访谈录音，逐字转录，并使用开放编码进行分析。研究结果:三个更高层次的主题被开发出来，以代表参与者对在基于能力的住院医师计划中实施plp的看法:(a)为学习奠定基础，(b)促进有意义的参与，(c)通过反思学习。结果表明，实施PLPs需要住院医师和学术顾问之间的合作，以及更广泛的项目和机构的支持。PLP的实施是一个反复的过程，可以为反思和自我调节技能的发展提供一个突出的途径。讨论与结论:plp可以成为住院医师教育中培养自我调节学习技能的有用工具。必须考虑如何制定社会和环境支持，以促进参与和实施公共服务计划。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
