Training activity information
Details
Present a case where a new or emerging technology or clinical intervention has been used for HSCT
Type
Developmental training activity (DTA)
Evidence requirements
Evidence the activity has been undertaken by the trainee.
Reflection on the activity at one or more time points after the event including learning from the activity and/or areas of the trainees practice for development.
An action plan to implement learning and/or to address skills or knowledge gaps identified.
Considerations
- For example a clinical case from local hospital, published case report or research study
Reflective practice guidance
The guidance below is provided to support reflection at different time points, providing you with questions to aid you to reflect for this training activity. They are provided for guidance and should not be considered as a mandatory checklist. Trainees should not be expected to provide answers to each of the guidance questions listed.
Before action
- What aspects of new technologies or interventions should you focus on in your presentation?
- What knowledge of current research and developments in HSCT will you need to select and present a relevant case?
- What specific insights do you hope to gain into the application and impact of new technologies or interventions in HSCT?
- Think about your current awareness of recent advances in the field. What specific areas are you interested in exploring further through this activity?
- What do you anticipate learning about the process of critically evaluating the evidence and potential benefits and limitations of new approaches in HSCT?
- Discuss potential topics for your case presentation with your training officer or colleagues to ensure relevance and alignment with your learning needs. Research recent publications and conference proceedings related to new technologies or clinical interventions in HSCT.
- Consider potential challenges in understanding complex technical information or presenting it clearly to others. How will you prepare your presentation to ensure clarity and engagement?
In action
- What key aspects of the new technology or intervention are you currently highlighting in your presentation?
- How are you structuring your explanation to ensure clarity for your audience?
- What visual aids or examples are you using to illustrate the application of the new technology?
- What level of detail are you choosing to provide at different points in your presentation based on audience cues?
- Is the audience appearing to understand the information you are presenting about the new technology?
- Are there any questions or points of confusion arising from the audience?
- What are you learning about effectively communicating complex technical information to different audiences?
- How well is your presentation flowing and maintaining the audience’s engagement?
- Are you adjusting your explanations or providing additional background information in response to audience questions?
- If time constraints arise, are you prioritising the most important aspects of the new technology to cover?
- Are you ensuring that your presentation remains focused on the learning objectives and provides a clear understanding of the new technology or intervention?
On action
- How did your colleagues respond to the information you presented about the new technology or intervention?
- What questions or discussion points arose during or after your presentation?
- What aspects of the case or the new technology seemed to generate the most interest or debate?
- What did you observe about your own presentation style and effectiveness in conveying the information?
- Did this experience enhance your ability to research and present information about new developments in HSCT?
- What did you learn about the specific technology or intervention you presented?
- Did you gain insights into how to effectively communicate complex technical information to a clinical audience?
- How did your reflection-in-action (during the activity) influence the flow and content of your presentation?
- What aspects of your presentation skills would you like to develop further?
- How will you apply the lessons learned from this experience to future presentations or discussions about new technologies?
- What ‘next steps’ will you take to deepen your understanding of emerging technologies in HSCT?
- Would it be helpful to seek feedback on your presentation skills from colleagues or your training officer?
Beyond action
- Have you considered whether the new technology or intervention you presented has been further adopted or its impact better understood since your presentation? Has your view of its utility changed?
- Have you had opportunities to present other cases or new information to colleagues since this training activity?
- How did this initial presentation experience influence your subsequent presentations?
- Has this training activity improved your ability to research, synthesise, and present information about new developments in the field of HSCT?
- How has this experience influenced your confidence in communicating complex scientific information to a multidisciplinary audience?
- Will the skills developed in researching and presenting new technologies be valuable as the field of HSCT continues to evolve?
- Will this experience encourage you to stay informed about emerging technologies and contribute to their evaluation and potential implementation within your department?
