2020 CI Data Upload Season Check-in and Turning Virtual Educational Activities into Scholarship through MedEdPORTAL (Building Better Curriculum) - August 12, 2020

Presentation 1: 2020 CI Data Upload Season Check-in. 

During this session, we’ll continue to share CI updates, review new CI Portal features and reports, and curriculum documentation given COVID-19.  

Presentation 2: Turning Virtual Educational Activities into Scholarship through MedEdPORTAL. 

In this session, participants will be introduced to MedEdPORTAL, the journal of teaching and learning resources of the AAMC. MedEdPORTAL is a MEDLINE-indexed, open-access, electronic journal that is an avenue for educators to publish their teaching activities for worldwide dissemination and use. In addition, this presentation will highlight the current Virtual Learning Resources collection, which features peer-reviewed teaching resources that can be used for distance learning, including self-directed modules and learning activities that could be converted to virtual interactions. Educators are encouraged to bring ideas and consider submitting their work to this collection.
