- W2068988461 abstract "Purpose/Objective(s)Radiation oncology curriculum development is challenging due to limited numbers of trainees at any single institution. The specific aim of this project is to implement and evaluate a uniform medical student clerkship curriculum at select academic medical centers (AMCs) following the multi-institutional cooperative group research model.Materials/MethodsA standardized curriculum was developed consisting of 3 lectures (Overview of Radiation Oncology, Radiation Biology/Physics, and Practical Aspects of Simulation/Radiation Emergencies) and an interactive hands-on planning workshop. The planning workshop exposed students to basics of contouring and treatment planning. Students were asked to complete an anonymous evaluation of the curriculum using Likert scales (1 = “not at all” to 5 = “extremely”; reported as median [interquartile range]). Non-parametric statistical tests were used.Results94 students at 11 AMCs completed the curriculum during the 2013 calendar year. 70/94 students completed evaluations, 63/70 reported an intent to pursue radiation oncology as their specialty, and 57/63 reported this was their first time completing the curriculum. Student ratings of the importance of curricular content were: Overview 4 [4-5]; Radiation Biology/Physics 5 [4-5]; Practical Aspects/Emergencies 5 [4-5]; Planning Workshop 4 [4-5]. The planning workshop improved student comfort with treatment planning (pre 2 [1-3] vs post 3 [3-4], p<0.01), and using a planning workstation (pre 2 [1-3] vs post 4 [3-4], p<0.01), and enriched their understanding of an AP/PA spine plan (pre 2 [1-3] vs post 4 [3-4], p<0.01). Students also reported the curriculum helped to understand radiation oncology as a specialty (5 [4-5]), increased specialty decision comfort (4 [3-5]), and would help the transition to radiation oncology residency (4 [4-5]). One AMC provided lectures in a recorded format which mitigated the perceived impact of the lectures. These students reported a lower score (4 [4-4] vs 5 [4-5], p<0.01). Lastly, lectures were administered by residents at 7/11 participating AMCs. Site coordinators found resident participation to be extremely useful as an educational experience to develop teaching skills (5 [3-5]).ConclusionsA standardized curriculum was successfully piloted at 11 AMCs during the 2013 calendar year, providing proof-of-principle that radiation oncology curriculum development can follow the multi-institutional cooperative group research model. Additionally, subsequent to participation in the curriculum students felt more comfortable with their specialty decision and better prepared to begin radiation oncology residency. Further curriculum enhancement for radiation oncology trainees, including both medical students and residents, can be pursued using this model.
