Service-learning, which combines community service with academic methods, is a valuable pedagogy in medical education, offering students opportunities to understand community needs, social determinants of health, and the patient-physician relationship. To provide medical and health sciences educators with educational innovations that aim to promote community-engaged scholarship, MedEdPortal and the AAMC Center for Health Justice are seeking submissions for a new collection of resources on community-engaged learning, an approach that involves collaborative efforts that delve more deeply into power structures, root causes of health disparities, and action to reverse health inequalities to promote better outcomes for patients and communities.
Submissions are now open for complete teaching or learning modules that have been implemented and evaluated with medical trainees or practitioners. Each submission is reviewed by editorial staff and external peer reviewers using a standardized review instrument grounded in the tenets of educational scholarship. Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis.
