    R&R Series

    Research and Reflections on Teaching: A Medical and Health Education Series (R&R Series) From Avoidance to Engagement: Reframing Feedback in Health Professions Education Lecturer: Dr. Rola Ajjawi, Department of Surgery and Centre for Health Education Scholarship, University of British Columbia Date: Tuesday, September 15, 2026 Time: 8:30am - 1:00pm Location: Hybrid+ (various in-person sites across the province and virtual access available for the Webber lecture) NOTE: This event is for all faculty who teach in the health and medical programs in the UBC Faculty of Medicine. Join us for a half-day event in which we will examine the paradox of feedback avoidance: Why something so essential to learning remains so difficult to enact. Explore how addressing the fears that drive avoidance can move towards more authentic feedback conversations—strengthening both learner development and the culture of health professions education. Connect with colleagues from across the Faculty of Medicine at in-person sites throughout the province, where breakfast and lunch will be provided. For those unable to attend in person, the Webber Lecture will also be available remotely from 9:00 – 10:00 am.
