The goals of the APPD Research and Scholarship Learning Community are to:
- Define the needs of the APPD membership in the domains of research and scholarship
- Support the APPD’s organizational processes and procedures that promote research and scholarship by APPD members
To successfully meet these goals, the Research and Scholarship Learning Community engages in a variety of activities, including:
- Facilitating group projects among learning community members through longitudinal subwork groups.
- Providing resources to facilitate educational scholarship
- Developing and leading workshops focused on medical education research topics at the APPD Annual Spring Meeting
- Reviewing APPD meeting abstracts and enhanced learning session proposal submissions in collaboration with APPD SEEK.
- Reviewing research surveys intended for the APPD membership
- Selection of research prize winners
We welcome all APPD members, regardless of experience with medical education research and scholarship. This community is a great way to be connected with other APPD members with a particular interest in educational research and scholarship and take advantage of opportunities to improve your own research, appraisal, and mentoring skills.
