@RahulSharma_USA @UVANeph A wonderful talk by @KidneydrChirag. Packed conference room and everyone was excited and engaged.

[Rahul Sharma @RahulSharma_USA]

Thought-provoking and pradigm-shifting Renal Grand Rounds by Dr. Chirag Parikh @UVANeph today on the "Prognosis of AKI to CKD". A little AKI is not really bad, we need better determinants to categorize AKI and that could prevent several useful trials from failing.

Hope to see you in DC. #askASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

I thinke we should do what IM did, separate hospital medicine and outpatient nephrologye. But that is not a topic for this group. #askASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

I do intern morning report and try to make it fun. We look at the electrolytes before we hear the whole history and move backwards. The we guess things right, it is a big oh and ah. They love the session, but I don't know if they are going to become nephrologists. #askASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

audience response helps me figure out if I need to spend any time on the topic or quickly move to the next. Very helpful. #askASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

I have one where the individual score average is about 65% and the group average goes up to over 90%. Then they work on some cases in groups and post their answers simultaneously. I stay quiet and enjoy the conversations. #askASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

10 questions are done individually, then in small groups (we do 6 - 9). then we do an application exercise. Questions have to be relatively tough to create discussions. #AskASN

For large classroom teaching, I am a huge fan of Team-Based Learning. It's magical! #askASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

@GenNextMD @PHLane Well put! PP would be the least effective teaching method!

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

Gain their trust, show you are there to help and make sure they learn and reach their goals. #askASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

@jwilliamMD @LTummalapalli Agreed! Especially if expectations were not clear or if you don't know or respect the person who provided the feedback. #askASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

A4: I send an email in advance describing my expectations to get that out of the way. On the first of rotation day we introduce ourselves and have a friendly conversation for a few minutes. #AskASN

[Kambiz Kalantari, MD, MS @KalantariMD]

We do collective evaluation of both fellows and faculty as well. I specifically ask the fellows to provide comments and to only include comments that majority agreed with. #askASN

R2C2 is another way of putting it, Relationship, Reaction to feedback, Content of feedback and Coaching. #askASN
