RAPID CYCLE DELIBERATE PRACTICE IS BEST USED: We have identified opportunities when RCDP may be leveraged to impact clinical performance. These include educational opportunities with the following: • Existing, well-established performance guidelines: The Institute of Medicine recommends establishing performance standards to minimize risk of harm to patients.38 These can originate from national guidelines, institutional protocols, or expert consensus. Using standards provides an objective way to measure learner performance and an ability to build prescriptive feedback. • A need for learners to master key behaviors: RCDP continuously provides formative testing of learner performance against established standards. Instructors will not advance to the next learning objective until learners achieve the current objective. This describes several of the complementary features of mastery learning incorporated into RCDP.5 • Limited teaching time: Published RCDP studies show that it allows learners to master a large amount of content within one standard time frame,12–20,39 making it a good option when learners have a short time to master a topic, or if it is a stand-alone or self sustaining course. • Low-volume, high-risk, time-sensitive events: RCDP has been associated with improvement in team performance during simulated low-volume, high-risk, time-sensitive events.12–20,39 • Team situations requiring or benefitting from specific scripting and/or choreography: RCDP can facilitate utilization of shared mental models for patient assessment, explicit choreography for patient management, role delineation, shared language, and interdisciplinary procedural training. ![[Deliberate Practice]] ### What would the opposite argument be?
