SNAPP is a software tool that allows users to visualize the network of interactions resulting from discussion forum posts and replies. The network visualisations of forum interactions provide an opportunity for teachers to rapidly identify patterns of user behaviour - at any stage of course progression. SNAPP has been developed to extract all user interactions from various commercial and open source learning management systems (LMS) such as BlackBoard (including the former WebCT), and Moodle. SNAPP is compatible for both Mac and PC users and operates in Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari.

The purpose of this website is to create a collection of free medical mindmaps in order to facilitate learning of complex topics. Mindmaping is a way of incorporating imagery, colour, and visual-spatial arrangement to your notes. These elements have been separately shown to improve recall of learnt material. Mindmapping allows for the whole topic to be displayed on a single page, which increases revision speed and allows you to see connections between different ideas more easily. The difficulty in using mindmaps for revision is that it often takes a fair amount of time to design them and there are many topics to be covered in medicine. In preparation for exams, it would be very difficult for a student to make a good mindmap for every topic. One of the aims of this website is to help you overcome this problem.

"We present 12 practical tips derived from SDT, for teachers in health professions, on how to engage in autonomy-supportive teaching behaviours in order to stimulate intrinsic motivation in their students. Conclusion: These tips demonstrate that it is not difficult to engage in autonomy-supportive teaching behaviour. It can be learned through practice and self-reflection on teaching practices."

"Our empirical studies with five UCI datasets and one real-world medical image classification show that the proposed batch mode active learning algorithm is more effective than the state-of-the-art algorithms for active learning. "

"Chapter 2 also discusses a series of clinical implications and recommendations for stakeholders wishing to engage these dynamic spaces. Chapter 3 reviews three recent administrative and judicial cases that have emerged from the inappropriate use of social media and Chapter 4 concludes with the main implications of and significance of the findings. Further research is clearly required to solidify the evidence on the use of social media in health care and to explore and document its economic, clinical, governance and tactical impact and utility."

During their first two years at Leicester Medical School, undergraduate students observe two patients and submit a 10,000 word dissertation on the medical condition, treatment, and social context of the patient. To support this, in the students' second semester, Information Librarians at the University of Leicester run embedded teaching sessions showing the students how to find information for good medical evidence, using a range of online databases and information resources.
