Summary
Implementing a comprehensive scholarly activity (SA) curriculum, including a peer leader, significantly boosted resident presentations. A similar curriculum without a peer leader showed no improvement in SA.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Family Medicine Research
Background:
- Scholarly activity (SA) is a core requirement for family medicine residents.
- Engaging residents in SA presents a consistent challenge in graduate medical education.
Observation:
- A novel curriculum at Naval Hospital Jacksonville Family Medicine Residency (NHJ) dramatically increased resident SA.
- This study aimed to replicate the NHJ curriculum in two additional family medicine residency programs.
Findings:
- The program implementing all three interventions (workshop, guide, peer leader) saw a 302% increase in resident conference presentations.
- The program that omitted the resident peer leader component showed no significant change in SA.
Implications:
- A resident peer research leader appears crucial for the success of SA curricula.
- Further multi-site implementation is recommended to assess the generalizability of these findings in family medicine residency programs.

Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about...
