{"title":"The social construction of time and its influence on medical education.","authors":"Tasha R Wyatt, Edison Iglesias de Oliveira Vidal","doi":"10.1111/medu.15472","DOIUrl":"10.1111/medu.15472","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Introduction: </strong>Few sociocultural constructs exist that are so deeply embedded in our daily lives and able to influence our thoughts, behaviours and interactions than time itself. Time spans all cultures, and yet many of us have not critically engaged with how time effects what we do, how we perceive and the ways in which we interact. As such, our relationship to time remains almost invisible running in the background nearly unnoticed until it is somehow brought into conscious awareness.</p><p><strong>Context: </strong>In this paper, we draw on Levine's concepts of clock time and event time as different perspectives on time, demonstrating how they play out in medical education and clinical practice within the United States and Brazil. Clock time treats time as something external to our lives, fixed by the natural world and measured by clocks. Event time is conceptualised more flexibly, where the duration of activities depends on internal cues related to the flow and progression of events rather than strict schedules.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>By contrasting these differences, we hope to make visible the way that time influences our choices for educating physicians and provide a foundation for medical education to begin questioning how time is positioned, experienced and understood as a powerful force in the shaping of our profession. Additionally, we consider these perspectives within the concepts of Taylorism and Slow Medicine to better understand their links to medicine's formal and hidden curriculum in hopes of raising awareness and create new visions for medical education.</p>","PeriodicalId":18370,"journal":{"name":"Medical Education","volume":" ","pages":"97-103"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141893799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The violence of curriculum: Dismantling systemic racism, colonisation and indigenous erasure within medical education.","authors":"Saleem Razack, Lisa Richardson, Suntosh R Pillay","doi":"10.1111/medu.15470","DOIUrl":"10.1111/medu.15470","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Background: </strong>Epistemic violence is enacted in medical curricula in mundane ways all the time, negatively impacting learners, teachers and patients. In this article, we address three forms of such violence: White supremacy, indigenous erasure and heteronormativity.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>In this article, we examine the knowledge systems of medicine as a global phenomenon, impacted by Western and European ideologies of race and colonisation, both produced by them, helping to reproduce them through authoritative and hegemonic ideologies. We seek not only to problematise but also to propose alternative teaching approaches rooted in the Global South and in Indigenous ways of knowing. Taking inspiration from Paulo Freire, we advocate for the development of critical consciousness through the integration of critical pedagogies of love, emancipation and shared humanity. Drawing on Irihapeti Ramsden, we advocate for cultural safety, which emphasises power relations and historical trauma in the clinical encounter and calls for a rights-based approach in medical education. Deliberately holding space for our own vulnerabilities and that of our students requires what Megan Boler calls a pedagogy of discomfort.</p><p><strong>Conclusions and significance: </strong>Our perspectives converge on the importance of critical consciousness development for culturally safe practice in medical education, acknowledging the need to emphasise a curriculum of shared humanity, introducing the concept of Ubuntu from Southern Africa. Ubuntu can be encapsulated in the phrase 'I am because we are', and it promotes a collective approach to medical education in which there is active solidarity between the profession and the diverse populations which it serves.</p>","PeriodicalId":18370,"journal":{"name":"Medical Education","volume":" ","pages":"114-123"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141590715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This framework provided valuable insights into how cultural tendencies shape the learning and application of clinical reasoning skills in different cultural contexts. We found that dimensions such as power distance and individualism versus collectivism significantly influenced clinical reasoning, while other dimensions had more nuanced effects. Junior doctors in Southern nations, despite initially lagging behind, developed advanced clinical reasoning skills with experience, eventually matching their Northern counterparts. The study highlighted the link between cultural norms and educational practices, variations in family involvement during reasoning, adherence to clinical guidelines and doctors' emotional engagement in clinical care between Southern and Northern contexts. Additionally, we recognised that effective clinical reasoning extends beyond technical knowledge, involving an understanding and integration of cultural dynamics into patient care.

Culture, when conceptualised through an organisational lens, allows an analysis of the shared assumptions, beliefs and values, without seeking to reduce to a uniform construct. This article explores the differences in interprofessional education competencies between Australia and Japan and considers the systems and patient expectations, which underpin each. While collaborative competence exhibits some similarities across contexts, competency frameworks differ in emphasis, language and key terminology, which highlight multiple points of difference in the expectations of interprofessional collaborative practice across contexts.

Our aim, therefore, was to critically consider selection practices and their sociohistorical influences in our respective countries (Brazil, China, Singapore, South Africa and the UK), including how any perceived inequalities are addressed.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This paper summarises many constructive dialogues grounded in the idea of he er butong () (harmony with diversity), learning about and from each other.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Some practices were similar across the five countries, but there were differences in precise practices, attitudes and sociohistorical influences thereon. For example, in Brazil, South Africa and the UK, there is public and political acknowledgement that attainment is linked to systemic and social factors such as socio-economic status and/or race. Selecting for medical school solely on prior attainment is recognised as unfair to less privileged societal groups. Conversely, selection via examination performance is seen as fair and promoting equality in China and Singapore, although the historical context underpinning this value differs across the two countries. The five countries differ in respect of their actions towards addressing inequality. Quotas are used to ensure the representation of certain groups in Brazil and regional representation in China. Quotas are illegal in the UK, and South Africa does not impose them, leading to the use of various, compensatory 'workarounds' to address inequality. Singapore does not take action to address inequality because all people are considered equal constitutionally.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>In conclusion, medical school selection practices are firmly embedded in history, values, societal expectations and stakeholder beliefs, which vary by context.
