Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Background: Creating spaces that prioritize trauma-informed medical education (TIME) can support productive learning around anti-racism. Activity: A pilot virtual-guided book dialogue workshop on anti-racism for 4th year medical students using the TIME framework. Results: In pre- and post-surveys, students reported high satisfaction with the content and virtual format with significant increases in confidence in achieving the learning objectives and in comfort levels. Discussion: A TIME approach was effective in increasing confidence and comfort levels in dialoguing about anti-racism. Additional inquiry to provide insight on the benefits of virtual learning for anti-racism content is needed. Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40670-024-02147-0.
