Educator Insights

Educator Insights are 1-hour zoom-based facilitated sessions where faculty learn with and from each other, sharing ideas and practical solutions around evolving issues in education.

Balancing Autonomy and Supervision in Today’s Complex Clinical Environments

Balancing learner autonomy with appropriate supervision has always been a challenge in clinical education, but increasing patient complexity and heightened safety concerns are making it harder than ever. How do we ensure trainees still develop independent decision-making skills and a genuine sense of ownership over patient care, even as supervision needs increase? How do we know when to step back and when to step in? Join us for a facilitated discussion where we'll explore these questions and others you bring, learning from and with each other about navigating autonomy and supervision in today's higher-stakes clinical environment.

Coaching Learners on Using AI in Clinical Care

AI tools are suddenly everywhere, and our learners are already using them to generate differential diagnoses, guide test-ordering, and draft treatment plans. How do we help them use these tools responsibly, without compromising clinical reasoning development? Bring your questions and experiences to this facilitated discussion as we learn from each other about emerging best practices.

Precepting with AI Scribes Present

In this session, we will discuss how AI scribes are changing our precepting practices, and will brainstorm about strategies to ensure learners effectively interact with AI scribes while still developing clinical reasoning skills. Facilitated by faculty who are early adopters and have some experience with AI scribes themselves, this session is open to all UCSF faculty who want to learn, and share what they have learned themselves, about what works and what has been challenging.
