Most pertinent among the activities were communicating research results and findings, reporting implementation and evaluation of innovations and synthesizing the literature on a given topic through effective presentations and manuscript writing. The oral and written forms of scholarly presentations, including publications, require a clear, systematic, purposeful and rigorous approach to have a significant impact on other educators or the field. The workshop was very engaging and supported the health professions educators in enhancing their presentation style and writing for scholarship skills.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Workshop: Bedside Teaching: Devising a Foolproof Plan for Success&#8221; style=&#8221;simple&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:p|text_align:left|color:%23333333&#8243; custom_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221;]Bedside teaching is seen as one of the most important modalities in teaching a variety of clinical skills important for the medical profession, but its effective use is declining as recent clinical teaching and learning is shifting away from the bedside. However, the value of bedside teaching is very much important as it has been shown to improve students&#8217; diagnostic skills, provide students with authentic cases and most importantly to build therapeutic relationships with patients. As bedside teaching is still relevant in HPE, a strategy needs to be devised to ensure the relevancy and effectiveness of bedside teaching. There has been recent work that emphasizes patient engagement in bedside teaching. In addition to discussing skills for efficient and effective bedside teaching, the participants also discuss how to engage patients in these encounters in the Malaysian context.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Workshop: Making Workplace-Based Learning Effective&#8221; style=&#8221;simple&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:p|text_align:left|color:%23333333&#8243; custom_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221;]Workplace-based learning (WBL) is well recognised as one of the most effective approaches to translating theory into practice.

This workshop discussed the principles of WBL and various strategies to enhance students\u2019 development through WBL, which is applicable to both undergraduate and postgraduate training. The workshop also discussed the developmental approach to assessment such as roles of direct observation, feedback and practice improvement through coaching, and programmatic assessment to promote assessment for learning.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Workshop on Feedback and Coaching: A Bidirectional Approach&#8221; style=&#8221;simple&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:p|text_align:left|color:%23333333&#8243; custom_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221;]The primary goal of performance assessment, in clinical and non-clinical environments, is to calibrate the gaps between expected and current performance and help the learner narrow these gaps. This goal fosters the professional development and growth of learners. Self-reflection and feedback are integral to this process, however, feedback conversations may not always be effective. Recent research defines feedback as a dynamic, bidirectional process with a focus on growth. The effectiveness depends not only on how the feedback is given but also on how it is received and accepted. This can be challenging for the feedback giver and recipient.[\/vc_toggle][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tab][vc_tab title=&#8221;2019&#8243; tab_id=&#8221;1759915457245-6-8&#8243;]<div class=\"ult-spacer spacer-6a2133e908b29\" data-id=\"6a2133e908b29\" data-height=\"20\" data-height-mobile=\"20\" data-height-tab=\"20\" data-height-tab-portrait=\"\" data-height-mobile-landscape=\"\" style=\"clear:both;display:block;\"><\/div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-md-3 vc_col-xs-9&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1670&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner offset=&#8221;vc_col-md-9&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>Professor Cees van der Vleuten<\/h4>\n<p>Professor of Education at Maastricht University, The Netherlands<br \/>\nDepartment of Educational Development and Research in the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences.<br \/>\nDirector of the School of Health Professions Education<\/p>\n<p>www.ceesvandervleuten.com<\/p>\n<p>Visit Date: 22 April \u2013 17 May 2019[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h5>Highlight of RHVP 2019:<\/h5>\n<p><strong>Academic Plenary: A Vision for the Future of Assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the last 50 years the field of assessment of professional competence has seen remarkable progress. Developments in assessment technology have taken place across all areas of professional competence, ranging from cognitive to behavioural and emotional aspects of competency. This has been accompanied by extensive research. In order to make assessment more meaningful for learning, however, we need to change our thinking around assessment. We need to move from assessment of learning to assessment for learning, from individual assessment methods to a systems approach of assessment, from cross-sectional assessment to longitudinal approaches to assessment. This presentation adressed holistic approach to assessment called programmatic assessment.

One example is the removal of boundaries of space and time. Policy makers and curriculum developers need to rethink the purpose of education and support mechanism for the learners to order to produce synergy and collaboration among countries, communities and individuals. Some of the issues in curriculum development include QA in dispersed sites, serving the needs and demands of many different markets as well as meeting the learning preferences of future students. Professor Richard Hays shared his thoughts and insights on curriculum development driven by value creation and efficiency enhancement, given the opportunities offered by globalisation and AI technology.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HsR5SnRlWrw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch Video<\/a>[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Workshop on Research and Scholarship in Health Professions Education&#8221; style=&#8221;simple&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:p|text_align:left|color:%23333333&#8243; custom_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221;]Research and scholarship are among the roles of a teacher.
