Positive Reinforcement Helps Surgeons Learn
Teaching physicians implement dog-training techniques to impart complex surgical skills

When the American Board of Orthopedic Surgeons challenged residency directors a few years ago to
come up with teaching tools to help new doctors quickly gain skill at basic surgical
techniques—tying knots, positioning surgical instruments, and handling power tools—Levy teamed up
with animal trainer Karen Pryor, one of the founders of the clicker training movement to come up
with a teaching program he could implement with his residents. He broke down basic procedures, like
drilling into bone, into simple steps: how to grip a drill, how to position it at the correct angle
over a practice PVC pipe, and how to stabilize the drill tip. When a young doctor performed a
movement correctly, the instructor noted the achievement with an event marker—a click, the flick of
a flashlight, or simply the word “good” spoken in a neutral tone.
