“Teaching SDOH During COVID: The development of a virtual community mapping exercise”
The Center of Outpatient Education is an interprofessional program (IP) for Physician, Nurse Practitioner, Nursing, Psychology, Pharmacy, and Social Work trainees at the Cleveland VA Medical Center that is implementing and testing innovative approaches for IP education through a team-based model. Within the COE, a novel Social Determinants of Health (SDH) interprofessional curriculum is in development that includes didactic sessions and hands-on learning activities. During this webinar, we will discuss the development of an innovative Community Mapping activity that was originally developed to be conducted in person, however, it was transitioned to a virtual activity for an IP learning cohort.

This is your Brain in Poverty
One of the most striking impacts of poverty is the way it changes the brain. While some curricula incorporate simulated scenarios that revolve around SDoH related to poverty, none simulate the brain changes. Linda K. Riddell, an epidemiologist who specializes in low-income people, has developed a game that puts the players’ brains through changes that happen to a person living in poverty. Games inspires attention and active learning in health professions education. Especially since a growing number of students are accustomed to technology, games are being used more frequently for learning. (Gorbanev, 2018)
Just in Time Research Round Up
Intimate Partner Violence Related to COVID-19
In this issue of the NCEAS Research and Resources Roundup, we delve into Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), a serious, growing, and preventable public health problem that affects millions of Americans, which is a particularly relevant issue during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Resource of the Month
Using Forum Theater as a Teaching Tool to Combat Patient Bias Directed Toward Health Care Professionals
This resource, from MedEdPORTAL, introduces an educational activity in which forum theater (where participants role-play an instance of oppression with a goal of altering the ultimate outcome) is employed so attendees can develop/rehearse responses to workplace bias while preserving the provider-patient relationship.
