While various 'Residents-as-Teachers' (RAT) programs exist, few are tailored to anesthesiology, and little is known about students' perceptions of effective teaching behaviors in this setting. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational workshop designed to improve the quality of resident teaching and to assess its impact on medical student learning outcomes and satisfaction. We also sought to identify specific resident teaching behaviors that students consider important for their learning and determine which of these behaviors improved post-intervention. The intervention targeted 1<sup>st</sup> to 3<sup>rd</sup> year clinical anesthesiology residents, and its effectiveness was evaluated through medical student feedback. We employed a pre-post-intervention design using a Quality of Supervision Questionnaire, with additional items on learning outcomes, career aspirations, and satisfaction. An open-ended question elicited students' feedback on the behaviors of effective resident teachers. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. Twenty-two residents participated in the intervention, and 132 medical students completed the questionnaires (77/106 pre, 55/58 post). Post-intervention, the mean score for the overall quality of teaching increased significantly (2.98 ± 0.53 pre vs. 3.40 ± 0.46 post, <i>p</i> < 0.001), with notable improvements across multiple domains. Student learning outcomes, interest in anesthesiology as a career, and rotation satisfaction improved significantly (<i>p</i> < 0.001). The percentage of students identifying effective teaching behaviors increased from 63% to 96%. Thematic analysis revealed more prevalent teacher characteristics and enhanced teaching strategies with a direct positive impact on learning. Our study emphasizes the importance of formal training for anesthesiology residents to enhance teaching quality and student learning. Findings provide effective resident teaching strategies which educators can use to refine training programs in anesthesiology. Future research should explore structured evaluations of resident perspectives on the training program and explore broader implementation across different specialties and institutions.</p>","PeriodicalId":47656,"journal":{"name":"Medical Education Online","volume":"30 1","pages":"2500555"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12077471/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144018608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we explored more than two hundred Nobel Lectures to examine whether, how and whom newly crowned Nobel Prize winners explicitly mentioned as their mentors. We conducted an exploratory analysis of 208 Nobel Lectures in Physiology or Medicine delivered between 1901 and 2023 by using the search function to look for the keyword <i>mentor</i>. Only twenty Nobel Laureates have explicitly acknowledged their mentors in their Nobel Lectures. This recognition, which first occurred 73 years after the award's establishment, is more common among women, who are disproportionately underrepresented among awardees and often cited their postdoctoral advisors as mentors. The lack of overt recognition is surprising, especially considering the crucial role of mentorship in science, its broad societal value and the non-random patterns of Nobel mentoring relationships, where winners tend to have more Laureate ancestors, descendants and mentees. The word <i>mentor</i> appears more frequently in the Lasker Awards, although these were launched only in 1945 and feature brief 'Acceptance Remarks'. Even Oscar speeches, introduced nearly 30 years after the Nobel Prize and typically lasting less than a minute, mention mentors more frequently than Nobel Lectures do.

A self-assembled group of four medical students conceptualized and planned this pilot study to characterize matriculating medical students' EH knowledge and attitudes. This group also developed EH content for integration into a preexisting 18-month Case-Based Learning (CBL) curriculum to enhance small-group discussion and learning. Matriculating medical students were invited to participate in an anonymous cross-sectional survey assessing EH literacy and the need for an EH-specific curriculum in August 2023. Concurrently, the student group analyzed 44 cases in the current CBL curriculum and searched PubMed and the PEHSU Climate Resources for Health Education for pertinent topics from the case review. The group then formulated learning objectives and discussion questions for the facilitator guide for 30 cases, with expert review by curriculum faculty members. 70 of 200 students (35%) fully completed a survey about EH literacy. Eighty percent of students reported no previous coursework pertinent to EH, with most students demonstrating a basic understanding of the concept. Students reported low confidence in counseling patients regarding pertinent EH matters and a limited understanding of social determinants of health pertinent to the local area. In 30 identified medical conditions across 10 disciplines, 57 new objectives were developed to address environmental exposures, infectious diseases, climate change, and local implications. Increasing EH literacy among medical students represents a high-impact educational need. This pilot study, conceived and led by medical students, successfully characterized the EH knowledge gap among medical students and integrated novel discipline-specific learning objectives and discussion points into a pre-existing CBL curriculum. This model may easily be adapted to other institutions' curricula.</p>","PeriodicalId":47656,"journal":{"name":"Medical Education Online","volume":"30 1","pages":"2534054"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12305841/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144733979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
