Abstract

A process and tool that prompts learners to think about and reflect on their clinical performance was implemented. Learner narrative reflections about their work and faculty feedback, both captured in the moment, provided data for decisions about level of performance in a competency-based assessment system.

Keywords: assessment; entrustable professional activity; learning; narrative; reflective practice.
