Curricular review is considered a necessary component for growth and enhancement of academic programs and requires time, energy, creativity, and persistence from both faculty and administration. On a larger scale, a comprehensive redesign effort involves forming a dedicated faculty redesign team, developing program learning outcomes, mapping the existing curriculum, and reviewing the curriculum in light of collected stakeholder data. The faculty of the Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences (TAMU) recently embarked on a comprehensive curriculum redesign effort through partnership with the university's Center for Teaching Excellence. Using a previously developed evidence-based model of program redesign, TAMU created a process for use in veterinary medical education, which is described in detail in the first part of this article series. An additional component of the redesign process that is understated, yet vital for success, is faculty buy-in and support. Without faculty engagement, implementation of data-driven curricular changes stemming from program evaluation may be challenging. This second part of the article series describes the methodology for encouraging faculty engagement through the final steps of the redesign initiative and the lessons learned by TAMU through the redesign process.

The Effects of Content Delivery Methods on Ultrasound Knobology and Image Quality Recognition Training in First-Year Veterinary Students

Elizabeth M. Scallan, Andra K. Voges, Kristin P. Chaney, Caleb D. Coursey, Bradley T. Simon

Summary: The study compared three methods of delivering ultrasound knobology content to first-year veterinary students, with self-directed learning showing significantly higher short-term and long-term knowledge acquisition and retention compared to in-person demonstration and online module instruction. Therefore, self-directed learning methods are recommended for teaching ultrasonography to veterinary students.

Modified B-QUIET scoring of kidney images acquired by veterinary students in live canines with versus without sequential practice on ultrasound phantoms

Diane M. Cheney, Andra K. Voges, Nicola Ritter, Elizabeth Scallan, Kristin Chaney

Summary: This prospective cohort design study aimed to determine whether preclinical veterinary students in a curriculum with sequential phantom training sessions acquire better-quality ultrasound images of kidneys in live canines compared with students in a curriculum without such training sessions. The findings suggest that further studies with more sensitive evaluation tools and serial evaluation of students may be beneficial in monitoring student competency and evaluating the role of phantoms in ultrasound training in the veterinary curriculum.
