Abstract
Several “calls to action” have imposed upon medical schools to include physical activity content in their overextended curricula. These efforts have often neither considered medical education stakeholders’ views nor the full complexity of medical education, such as competency-based learning and educational inflation. With this external pressure for change, few medical schools have implemented physical activity curricula. Moreover, Canada’s new 24-Hour Movement Guidelines focus on the continuum of movement behaviours (physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep). Thus, a more integrated process to overcome the “black ice” of targeting all movement behaviours, medical education stakeholder engagement, and the overextended curriculum is needed. We argue for co-production in curriculum change and offer five strategies to integrate movement behaviour curricula that acknowledge the complexity of the medical education context, helping to overcome our “black ice.” Our objectives were to investigate 24-Hour Movement Guideline content in the medical curriculum and develop an integrated process for competency-based curriculum renewal. Stakeholders were equal collaborators in a two-phased environmental scan of 24-Hour Movement Guideline content in the Queen’s University School of Medicine. Findings and a working curriculum map highlight how new, competency-based content may be embedded in an effort to guide more relevant and feasible curriculum changes.
Résumé
À plusieurs reprises, les facultés de médecine ont été invitées à inclure du contenu en matière d’activité physique dans leurs cursus déjà chargés. Ces appels à l’action ont souvent omis de prendre en compte les points de vue des parties prenantes de l’éducation médicale ainsi que toute la complexité de cette dernière, y compris l’approche par compétence et les contenus de cursus qui ne cessent de croître. Malgré la pression externe, peu de facultés de médecine ont mis en place des programmes d’activité physique. De plus, les nouvelles directives canadiennes en matière de mouvement sur 24 heures sont axées sur le continuum des comportements de mouvement (activité physique, comportement sédentaire et sommeil). Une approche intégrée est de mise pour négocier le terrain glissant que constitue la nécessité de cibler tous les comportements de mouvement, de solliciter les parties prenantes de l’éducation médicale et de prendre en considération le cursus chargé. Nous prônons la collaboration pour effectuer ces modifications dans les programmes d’études par le biais de cinq stratégies d’intégration de contenu sur les comportements de mouvement qui reconnaissent la complexité du contexte de l’éducation médicale. Nos objectifs étaient d’étudier le contenu des directives en matière de mouvement sur 24 heures et de créer un processus intégré pour la révision du cursus basé sur les compétences. Les parties prenantes ont collaboré sur un pied d’égalité à une analyse environnementale en deux phases du contenu des directives en matière de mouvement sur 24 heures à la Faculté de médecine de l’Université Queen’s. Les résultats et le projet de programme élaboré illustrent la manière d’intégrer du contenu nouveau basé sur les compétences et d’opérer ainsi des changements pertinents et réalisables dans le cursus.
