Hello all!

Having recently completed the 2013-2015 undergraduate interviews, this month in the EKM Journal Club we will discuss multiple mini interviews (MMIs). This year was the School of Nursing’s sixth year using the MMI system. The school updated the admission process in 2008 from traditional-style interviews to MMIs following a literature review and examination of McMaster University’s trailblazing implementation of MMIs.

This month’s article is:

Perkins, A., Burton, L., Dray, B., & Elcock, K. (2013). Evaluation of a multiple-mini-interview protocol used as a selection tool for entry to an undergraduate nursing programme. Nurse education today, 33(5), 465–9.

This article is available here.

The Journal Club meeting will take place on May 21st at 12:00pm in room T182. As usual, please bring your own lunch and coffee. We will provide a sweet treat. Please RSVP to confirm your attendance.

Thank you to the small group who were able to make it to yesterday’s workshop on interactive technology in the classroom and polleverywhere. We realize that many people who would have liked to participate in this workshop but were unable to attend. We hope to schedule another workshop on this topic if there is sufficient interest. Please let me know if you would be interested in attending. The material will mirror that presented yesterday.

We look forward to seeing you at the May Journal Club.

Best,

Allana
