Abstract

The field of health professional education scholarship is perhaps unique in the variety of stakeholders involved: students, teachers, administrators and researchers all work and interact with each other, often in highly valuable ways. Communication and collaboration are often straightforward, however conversations about scholarly projects can sometimes feel as if people are talking at cross purposes. As an educational practitioner (Sue) and researcher/theorist (Glenn), we have spent the last 5 years exploring how our own ways of developing knowledge (how we, as scholars, learn) and representing that knowledge (what was learned) have led us to “mutually dissatisfying” conversations about potential scholarly projects (and, by the way, WITA presentations). In this session, we will share our two perspectives as we have come to understand them and open the floor to a conversation about how these two perspectives might be better represented in our collective conversations about scholarship at CHES.

Objectives

  1. Open a conversation related to different “ways of knowing”
  2. Discuss how different ways of knowing can expand and strengthen the scholarly endeavor
  3. Explore the need for “different ways of knowing” to be better represented in scholarship within the CHES community
