Such students have differences in executive functioning and social communication skills, which can confer both strengths and challenges in the academic environment. Specific challenges presenting in the veterinary curriculum include the intense workload, unpredictable nature of work, and high level of interpersonal and communication skills required in clinical settings. Extramural studies (EMS) occur remote from university support systems, adding further challenge for some students. A survey was sent to all current United Kingdom veterinary schools in 2022 to identify current support for neurodivergent students. An interactive roundtable discussion was held to brainstorm best practice for harnessing the power of neurodiversity in the clinical learning environment. Several consistent themes emerged. Most veterinary schools provide some degree of support for neurodivergent individuals, but support varies widely. Four of the eight schools provide support at open days and/or following offers, with one school offering a summer school. Five schools confirmed that accommodations were made to clinical rotations and/or EMS in line with a support plan from their Disability Service. Despite these steps to assist neurodivergent students, support could, and should, be increased to improve the student experience. Suggested enhancements include a supportive environment for the empowerment of disclosure, neurodiversity awareness training for university staff and placement providers, provision of reasonable adjustment guidelines for EMS providers, clinical/intramural rotation orientation and support, and student access to a neurodiversity mentor/coach.","PeriodicalId":17575,"journal":{"name":"Journal of veterinary medical education","volume":" ","pages":"311-316"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142590589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are limited small ruminant clinical skills models available, despite the advantages they offer in veterinary education. We developed reusable models for teaching ram breeding soundness examinations, focusing on scrotal assessment and palpation. Then we integrated these models into a practical session where multiple clinical aspects were included. We created anatomically normal (\"sound\") testes using 3D modeling software before editing these to display common abnormalities (\"unsound\" testes). Then, we 3D printed two-part molds and cast the silicone testes. Testes were inserted into siliconized, lubricated stockings facilitating free movement during palpation. Scrotal sacs were sewn from polar fleece and suspended to mimic natural orientation in a live, standing ram. As well as for scheduled classes, we used the models as a station in our course's Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) assessment. Our models offer advantages in the veterinary education context. Their relatively low cost and durability facilitates their classification as \"open access\" within our skills lab for student deliberate practice outside scheduled classes. They provide a uniform student learning experience that does not rely on live animals or clinical case load and aligns with best-practice recommendations from accrediting bodies. Student engagement and OSCE outcomes were good, but going forward it would be ideal to collaborate with a program that uses live rams for teaching and assessing this skill to directly examine the impact of our models on confidence and competence.","PeriodicalId":17575,"journal":{"name":"Journal of veterinary medical education","volume":" ","pages":"339-344"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142589233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The University of Surrey has pioneered a training program aimed at promoting understanding and application of educational theory in veterinary educator identity development. This study investigated the reflections of novice educators upon conclusion of their training to delineate the program's efficacy and identify areas of educator training necessitating further research and enhancement. A convenience sample of 53 reflective narratives was subjected to inductive thematic analysis. Three principal themes emerged. The first encapsulated an enhanced cognizance of student learning needs, underscored by foundational learning theories. Notably, the introduction of \"feedforward\" and the incorporation of student reflection within the feedback mechanism were identified as innovative concepts. The second theme revolved around the personal growth experienced because of participation in the training program, with 47% of reflections articulating profound introspection. The final theme explored the perceptions of the rewards and challenges associated with balancing the educational program with routine professional responsibilities, highlighting an increase in self-confidence and the obstacles encountered in allocating time for training.","PeriodicalId":17575,"journal":{"name":"Journal of veterinary medical education","volume":" ","pages":"419-424"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142589711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The primary purpose of this reform was to enhance student competency and address specific deficiencies in competencies as revealed by annual outcomes assessment surveys. The authors developed a competency framework with seven competencies and specific elements, providing a foundation for the educational redesign. This framework guided the creation of learning-assessment situations (LAS) aimed at promoting active and contextualized learning throughout the program. The competency development and assessment pathway (CDAP) matrix was established to align LAS within the traditional program structure and track student progress. A learning portfolio and a competency certification process were introduced to support student learning and assess competency achievement. The authors discuss change management, including the paradigm shift toward programmatic assessment, and provide insights into the evolution of the program post-implementation. Preliminary outcomes assessment reveals positive changes in how teaching staff and students perceive the program. Despite challenges related to human resource constraints, the authors emphasize the significance of this reform, which aligns with current trends in medical education. This paper underscores the importance of tailoring educational approaches to specific institutional environments while maintaining programmatic rigor and quality assurance.","PeriodicalId":17575,"journal":{"name":"Journal of veterinary medical education","volume":" ","pages":"298-310"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142591076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ten third-year students from the class of 2019 participated in a semi-structured interview designed to explore the student experience surrounding stress, resiliency, and their perception of mental health awareness initiatives. Transcripts were de-identified and analyzed using thematic analysis. Two central themes of academic encumbrances and academic tenacity were identified, and each theme was further delineated into three main sub-themes associated with the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) assessment. Students described the clinical skills course OSCEs as a primary source of stress and fear. Academic encumbrances were delineated through the sub-themes of academic load, fear of failure, and low academic self-efficacy. Students navigated these encumbrances through their academic tenacity, rooted in their sense of belonging among peers, family, and friends, a growth mindset, and self-care practices. Study results exemplify the importance of attending to student needs beyond acquiring clinical knowledge and skills. As we continue to redefine veterinary curricula and assessment, our work highlights the need for curricular streamlining, attending to student well-being, and fostering an academically balanced lifestyle. Lastly, the findings will help inform student services about the mental health needs of the students specific to academic achievement.","PeriodicalId":17575,"journal":{"name":"Journal of veterinary medical education","volume":" ","pages":"398-408"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142590533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, students' satisfaction with this technique rather than their ability to perform surgery using these items has not been assessed. This study could potentially assess students' satisfaction with technique/instruction rather than their ability to perform surgery using these items.This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of remote online hands-on training in veterinary education using 3D glasses. Sixty students enrolled at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicineat Yamaguchi University voluntarily participated and were randomly divided into a 3D glasses and tablet group, each with 30 students. Each student completed one orthopedic and one ophthalmological task. The orthopedic task was performing surgery on a limb model, whereas the ophthalmological task involved incising a cornea on an eye model. The 3D glasses group participated in the ophthalmology task, then the orthopedic task, at a separate venue from the instructor. The tablet group participated in the same tasks using a tablet. In the student questionnaire, orthopedic screw fixation showed significantly higher levels of satisfaction in the 3D glasses group than in the tablet group, indicating a preference for this method. By contrast, for ophthalmic corneal suturing, the tablet group showed a significantly higher level of satisfaction than the 3D glasses group. Our findings showed that 3D glasses have a high educational value in practical training requiring depth and angle information.","PeriodicalId":17575,"journal":{"name":"Journal of veterinary medical education","volume":" ","pages":"425-430"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142589815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
