This module will discuss how to create a safe and inclusive classroom for vulnerable conversations while sharing strategies and tools for facilitating discussions about bias; including race/class/sexuality in case studies, and teaching beyond the “hidden” curriculum.
 

Target Audience

This continuing medical education activity was developed for healthcare professionals committed to improving quality and reducing health disparities.

Learning Objectives

Upon conclusion of this program, participants should be able to:

  • Name three common challenges that make instructors and learners feel discomfort with discussing race, power, and privilege;
