Spoiler alert: it's an experiment, so you'll need to squint/stretch to see how/if the findings change your teaching practice.

My best mistakeIn today's episode, the hosts discuss a paper about the medical errors committed by physicians—their triggers, the topics they reflect in relation to those errors, and what lessons they take away from those error experiences. While that is the topic of the paper, the hosts debate several points in the paper—not the least of which being: What can you do when your research data are actually chapters in a published book?
