Description

This grant supports demonstration projects aimed at developing, implementing, and evaluating innovative strategies to enhance fairness in clinical assessment within undergraduate and graduate medical and nursing education programs. The initiative focuses on advancing assessment approaches that empower learners, foster lifelong learning, and utilize data, learning analytics, and technology to promote systems-based fairness. Projects should exemplify how assessment can ensure all graduates are fully prepared to deliver the highest standard of care. Collaborative, cross-institutional efforts and co-creation with learners are encouraged to maximize impact and replicability. Funded projects are expected to align with the recommendations from the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation's 2022 conference on ensuring fairness in medical education assessment.
