Dr. Meghan McConnell, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Innovation in Medical Education at the University of Ottawa. Her research examines how individual, interpersonal, and group-level emotions shape learning, performance, and wellbeing in medical education and clinical practice.
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Recognize how emotions emerge and spread within learner groups, clinical teams, and educational communities.
- Describe how group emotions can influence learning, collaboration, engagement, and psychological safety.
- Identify strategies clinical educators and leaders can use to respond to and shape group emotions in ways that support effective learning environments.
