1) Why Behavioral Science Matters in Medical Education: Explore the limitations of knowledge-based education and the importance of driving behavioral change for impactful outcomes.
2) Essential Behavioral Science Concepts for Medical Education: Identify and discuss key behavioral science principles that can enhance educational effectiveness.
3) Practical Integration of Behavioral Science into Medical Education: Provide strategies for incorporating behavioral science into educational activities, including real-world examples and practical guidance on how to address common challenges.
