Some tips to increase your learning and training effectiveness and efficiency:
Poh-Sun Goh

1. Reflect on the purpose of your medical education and expected outcomes of your undergraduate education and clinical training process.
2. Your current clinical exposure to case based learning in the emergency department, wards, and clinics-outpatient settings builds on a foundation of pre-clinical basic sciences in year 1 and 2 of the medical program (with anatomy and pathology particularly applicable to the interpretation of radiology / imaging studies of your patients).
3. For the head and brain, think about what anatomical structures lie within the area of interest/clinical presentation, or may present with the clinical symptoms and signs exhibited by your patients. Ask yourself what radiological investigation you might request or review in order to make a diagnosis - to rule in, or rule out potential clinical diagnosis. Radiology helps you to "see living anatomy and pathology" in your patients. Thus confirm or exclude diagnosis. Keep in mind that early disease may have very subtle of "negative" imaging during the early stages of clinically symptomatic disease.
4. Review the Radiology studies for your patients. Ask yourself why certain investigations were performed. And in what order.
5. Correlate imaging findings with your clinical observations. Do they make sense, correlate with clinical findings, or do you have to entertain alternative diagnostic possibilities?
6. Use textbooks and a wide variety of online resources to improve your diagnostic and interpretative skills. Practice, practice, practice with reflection and feedback, using a range of resources, to increase your exposure to the variety and spectrum of clinical and imaging findings, both normal and abnormal, from typical, to less common and atypical (as you progress to increase your experience and mastery of clinical practice, and improve your knowledge and skills from undergraduate, through postgraduate to continuing professional development and lifelong learning settings).
7. Compare and contrast is one of the simplest and most effective methods to learn to recognise and differentiate between normal and abnormal XRs and scans. Review a series of normal XRs and scans, and then do side by side comparison between examples of normal, normal and abnormal, and examples of abnormal XRs and scans.

Background

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming health professions education (HPE), from adaptive learning to AI-assisted assessment and curricular design. Educators are increasingly expected to understand and integrate these tools, yet many feel unprepared. Meanwhile, students experiment widely with generative AI, often without formal guidance.


This pre-conference workshop responds to the growing demand for practical AI training that aligns with learner needs. Led by members of the AMEE Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) Committee, it offers an introductory hands-on approach to integrating AI into teaching and assessment, covering AI tools, prompt engineering, and applications in learning and evaluation.


A unique feature is an interactive student Q&A panel, where health professions students share candid experiences with AI in learning and assessment. Participants will engage directly with students to co-create solutions, bridging perspectives and identifying practical opportunities and challenges.


The goal is to equip educators with a practical toolkit to use AI effectively and foster meaningful, learner-centered experiences.


Who Should Participate

Educators at all career stages seeking to apply AI in teaching or curriculum design; faculty developers and leaders integrating AI literacy institutionally; researchers and innovators in technology-enhanced learning; students or young professionals interested in shaping AI’s role in education.


Structure of Workshop

Introduction: Framing AI’s role in education in 2026 and its potential to enhance learner-centered design. (15 min)

Practical skills: Hands-on work with AI tools, prompt engineering, classroom or assessment applications. Several rounds of short demonstrations and guided practice. (60 min)

Discussion: Exploring broader applications, sharing cases, addressing institutional barriers. (15 min)

Break.

Student panel: Three HPE students share real-world AI use, followed by an interactive educator Q&A to discuss needs, opportunities, and concerns. (30 min)

Small-group work: Mixed student-educator teams to co-create practical, inclusive solutions. (30 min)

Reflection: Discussion of global perspectives. (15 min)

Debriefing & wrap-up: Key takeaways, listing actionable steps. (15 min)

Intended Outcomes

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:


Identify practical strategies for integrating learner-centered AI tools into teaching and assessment.

Compare student and educator perspectives and co-develop feasible solutions.

Take away concrete, context-specific action points for their own teaching practice and institutions.

Description

Shared open education resources (OER) can address health professions education content development challenges driven by near-universal time and resource constraints while providing faculty development opportunities. Recent UNESCO education conferences have highlighted the global opportunity for generative AI to transform the development of OER. This interactive session will provide an overview of OER for health professions educators and provide hands-on strategies and generative AI tools for designing and developing high-quality OER. It will also address potential pitfalls and challenges with quality, critical appraisal, copyright and attribution issues when leveraging AI.

Historically, high-quality health professions education has been expensive to develop at scale and limited to major commercial or academic publishers. New digital platforms have accelerated the development of open education resources (OER) which evolved to address critical cost and accessibility issues in education globally. Notably, UNESCO has developed guidelines and policies supporting OER development at the country and institutional level. Emerging artificial intelligence (AI) tools, in particular, offer unprecedented opportunities to streamline content creation, personalize learning, and automate resource curation, further expanding equitable access to quality educational materials. UNESCO has highlighted these potential applications at the Third UNESCO World OER Congress in 2024 and the 2025 UNESCO Digital Learning Week Conference. Finally, novel shared curricular ecosystem platforms can standardize and facilitate the management of OER, empowering a global community of health professions educators to share, collaborate, and go further together. However, AI applications for curriculum design and development are often misunderstood, and educators have limited experience with quality, critical appraisal, copyright and attribution issues when leveraging AI.
