# Pre-clinical Medical Student Generated Formative Questions Can Inform the Topics Covered in Faculty Review Sessions Prior to Summative Assessments

## TL;DR

Medical students can help faculty prepare review sessions by identifying topics that need more focus before exams.

## Contribution

A new student-faculty collaboration workflow was piloted to improve review session planning.

## Key findings

- The co-creation workflow was well-received by faculty for its feasibility.
- Student-generated questions effectively informed review session topics.
- The approach helps address class-specific knowledge gaps.

## Abstract

Review sessions are challenging for preclinical medical school faculty to prepare due to year-to-year variability of the strengths and weaknesses of different classes. To optimize review session planning, we piloted a novel, co-creation-based workflow within a student-faculty partnership which was well received by faculty in terms of feasibility and utility.
