Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
In the mid to late 1950s, the idea of preparing university faculty members as teachers emerged in medical education and since then has become the most common type of faculty development in health professions education. Several competency frameworks for health professions teachers have been described in the literature, each of which includes skills in curriculum design, teaching and support of learning, and assessment and feedback. Several best practice examples demonstrate how these competencies might be addressed in faculty development programming. The literature is limited in the quality of evidence available about what works for teachers, their students, and the systems in which both education and patient care occur. Understanding the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of teaching improvement in health professions education will require more rigorous outcome measures and attention to the individual and shared needs of teachers and learners and the communities of practice in which they work.
