Chatting with Geoff Stetson on faculty development, feedback and MedEdMentor (and practicing what you preach)

Series
Conversations in Med Ed

Geoff shares his move from internal medicine to education and faculty development, reflecting on the broader culture and priorities of medicine and the need to emphasise education.
In episode seven we chat with Dr Geoff Stetson, an internal medicine clinician, Associate Professor of Medicine and Medical Education and Director of Clinical Faculty Development at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) College of Medicine. He starts at the beginning by reflecting on his educational influences from childhood, through to ‘catching the teaching bug’ as a teenager, up to positive and negative experiences as a medical student and resident. Geoff shares that education must be valued and prioritised, which comes back to challenging the broader culture of medicine and education, and how education should be emphasised as a high-stakes practice. Being a good teacher should not be voluntary – but fundamental! Regarding his supervision and faculty development work, he provides practical tips for effective feedback conversations that are agentic, non-hierarchical, participatory, student-centred and encouraging. MedEdMentor, an AI-powered website co-created by Geoff, as another educational support, is discussed, rooted in his own educational learning experiences on the complexity of social sciences scholarship and likely to resonate with many listeners. Excitingly, as MedEdMentor celebrates its first year, with 1800 subscribers from 100 countries, Geoff issues an invitation to collaborate, using this website as a support for the amplification of marginalised scholarship from the global South. You can connect with Geoff on LinkedIn, see his research at his Google scholar profile and visit MedEdMentor.
