Abstract: Fostering a Positive Climate to Promote Learning, Performance, and Well-Being effectiveness in clinical practice.Future research should examine how these practices can promote learning, wellbeing, and performance for emergency physicians. CONCLUSIONCultivating a positive learning climate on shift in the ED can foster learning, enhance performance, and nurture wellbeing for both educators and learners.We describe multiple strategies from the positive-psychology literature that clinical educators can add to their educational repertoires.Naming these practices encourages broader dissemination of their use, greater experimentation, and future studies of their impact.Emotion is an important component of medical education.Collating these 10 strategies is a starting point to consider how we can all promote a positive learning climate.
