The Quantum thinking approach in medical education: A change in perspective

As medical education continues to be influenced by complexity, unpredictability, and change, traditional models of thinking often don't help educators and learners in confronting the real issues and challenges. Quantum thinking can serve as a meaningful way to respond to the ever-changing demands of medical education. Quantum thinking does not work on a theoretical model rather as a disposition of thinking and action, which is supported through curiosity, flexibility, and reflective practice. Quantum thinking provides ways to cope with uncertainty without causing inaction, to rethink assumptions prevailing for a long time, and act intentionally in a system that is all too often in routine. In doing so, quantum thinking supports a more responsive, humane, and dynamic vision of medical education.
