CBME is a divisive issue in Canadian #MedEd . On one side the powers at be who conceived and designed the system. On the other are those that use it daily while also trying to practice medicine. As someone from the latter camp, I think about how we can make it better. A thread 1/

Does MedEd have room for those who challenge CBME implementation? Eusang 안유상 asks 'Is this working?' Cherry-picking and tick-boxing are the reality of CBME on the ground. We've been indoctrinated into 'religion' of CBME, but we are far from the promised land. #ICRE2022

Learning value of EPAs minimal if not negative while concurrently adding stress to the eval process.
Moreover, the onus of completing evaluations is largely placed on learners.

A student asked me this morning for LGBTQ books. I asked her fiction or non fiction and she said fiction. Pulled up my lists and told her I had titles in realistic fiction, fantasy, sci-fi, horror etc. Her eyes got wide. 'They make LGBTQ books in fantasy?!'

This should be pretty explosive. What on earth is the ministry of health doing shutting down advocacy by physicians in the midst of a public health crisis?
