Key Takeaways: • Learning styles inventories are not innate and not validated on scientific research to leverage as part of educational design. • The evidence base for learning styles does not exist, and when someone refers to “use of learning styles” we should be sure to turn on our critical thinking skills. Key Audience: All levels of healthcare CPD professionals will benefit from this content. “There's not a corner of the world that you can go to that has not fallen in the trap of learning styles.” In this audio article, Kenny Cox, CHCP, FACEhp, sits down with Brian S. McGowan, Ph.D., FACEhp, to discuss the long-debated concept of learning styles. Cox and McGowan explore the historical context, impact on educational settings and the variety of learning style inventories, urging educators to prioritize evidence-based instructional design strategies over unfounded beliefs in learning styles.

Host: William Mencia, MD, FACEHP, CHCP Guest: Stephen Cohen, MD Guest: Sateria Venable Uterine fibroids affect up to 40% of reproductive-age women. While many women may have no symptoms, others suffer with heavy menstrual bleeding, anemia, dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain and pressure, reduced quality of life, and reduced fertility. This is particularly true for Black women who are disproportionately affected. Communication is often lacking between women and their ob-gyns and PCPs regarding appropriate patient-centered treatments for their uterine fibroids. Join us as we explore keys to the early diagnosis of uterine fibroids and unravel the shared decision-making process that leads to maximizing patient outcomes.

About a third of the 55,000 Americans diagnosed with pancreatic cancer each year were considered inoperable due to the tumor growing outside the pancreas.

CME/CE professionals are often challenged to optimally report outcomes assessment results in a fashion directly linking them to specific outcomes levels and learning objectives. Fuzzy linkage, and therefore suboptimal reporting, leave significant room for improvement. To address these challenges, a new approach for developing learning objectives that are directly linked to specific outcomes levels (both from a needs assessment and outcomes assessment standpoint) will be described. I call the approach LINK-SMART. Is the approach a simple uninteresting twist to the traditional, a radical and unrealistic departure from the usual, an efficient and practical simplification of customary approaches, or something else?Derek T.
