Andrew Churches Web 2.0 collaboration rubric

"This is the first study of the ICON learning system in undergraduate medical education, a platform designed to facilitate collaboration outside of the classroom. Data on user perceptions and system utilization suggest that both faculty and students chose to adopt this online learning system as a means for collaboration. The study also outlines future avenues for research in assessing novel online technologies."

"This comprehensive collaborative learning workshop guide, developed from the ELI 2009 Fall Focus Session, contains a resource list and five workshop modules intended to reduce some of the extensive work involved in assembling the components and curriculum for such a program. Each of the modules contains topical guidelines, content, resources, and best practices, and each can be easily customized to fit the needs of your institution, department, or unit."

"Welcome to Online IPE: A Virtual Learning Centre where interprofessional collaboration and IPE online modules provide opportunities for "learners, or members/students of two or more professions associated with health or social care, to engage in learning with, from and about each other" (CAIPE).

"The importance of social and collaborative learning for online continuing medical education (OCME): Directions for future development and research."

Qualitative analysis of the attitudinal surveys following the activity provided data regarding students' preference for the Physical Webbing activity over the traditional lecture, acceptance of participatory manipulatives, perceived learning and attitudes towards collaborative kinesthetic three-dimensional Mind Mapping.

I'm sharing the UKCDR project - full disclosure - I am Project Manager of this collaborative project. It aims to make it easier for groups and schools in medical education to have conversations about assessment software requirements with commercial and other developers. Additionally, the project is engaging with commercial developers and trying to win the battle to ensure that best practice pedagogic needs come top in their software development plans.

UK Collaboration for a Digital Repository for High Stakes Assessments. Sister project to UMAP. New activity planned for 2009.

A medical village expands on the concept of a patient's medical home to include providers outside of the "home" practice (hospitals, specialists, etc.). The medical village will rely on several important concepts, including collaborative and coordinated care and shared responsibility: PCP-to-specialist, specialist-to-PCP and specialist-to-specialist.

"Central to an effective response is a code of conduct that establishes unequivocally the expectation that everyone is entitled to be treated with courtesy, honesty, respect, and dignity. The code must be enforced fairly through a clear and explicit process and applied consistently regardless of rank or station.Creating a culture of respect requires action on many fronts: modeling respectful conduct; educating students, physicians, and nonphysicians on appropriate behavior; conducting performance evaluations to identify those in need of help; providing counseling and training when needed; and supporting frontline changes that increase the sense of fairness, transparency, collaboration, and individual responsibility."

The tool was conceived by a research team from the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences at UWE Bristol led by principal lecturer Simon Messer, and developed in collaboration with Avon Somerset and Wiltshire Cancer Services (ASWCs) who commissioned the project as part of the National Awareness and Early Diagnosis Initiative. The idea is that GPs can access GP Sim from their computer at a time that suits to fine tune their diagnostic skills.

"The International Charter for Human Values in Healthcare is a collaborative effort involving people, countries, organizations and institutions around the world working together to restore core human values to healthcare."

"They want you to study by yourself and become obsessed with how well you understanding the material. ergo - stop caring about whether anyone else understands it. It would be a great system to develop overconfident get-mine solo practice doctors, but everyone knows there's too much paperwork to run a solo practice these days. We're also coming upon the age of specialists when collaboration will be at a premium. A disease like diabetes is complex. You might need primary care physicians working with vascular surgeons, endocrinologists, ophthalmologists, I could list every specialty. Not to mention nutritionists, personal trainers, policy makers."

"We launched this project because we believe a set of guidelines is very much needed either for medical professionals and patients, and pharma about using social media properly and legally. This open access guide created collaboratively by the most important online voices of pharma and web 2.0 was meant to help facilitate this process."

"The Institute for Innovative Technology In Medical Education (iInTIME) meets its mission by collaborating to develop and then distribute virtual patient cases and other on-line educational modules that are consistent with iInTIME's educational philosophy. These virtual patient cases harness the power of medical knowledge and are designed to supplement traditional clerkship teaching and patient care activities for third-year medical students, but also are appropriate for many other learners."

"The days are gone when a doctor walked into a patient's room and grabbed the paper chart at the end of his bed to check his medical history. iPads and tablet computing have revolutionized the way many companies do business, and the medical field is no different. The sharp, intuitive displays and interactive content of tablets naturally make doctor's visits a more collaborative process. "

"The duty of the teacher in this model is not to judge and rate but, rather, to read and tell what is seen. Our teachers, having been trained in the acts of close reading, are equipped not with rating rubrics but, rather, with a reading guide that prompts the reader to attend to several narrative features of a text. The reader/coach can thereby first see and then show the writer what is contained in the written text, at least from that reader's vantage point, helping along the process not only of the writing but also of the reflection the writing birthed. Multiple readers swell and complicate the lessons learned. As a dividend, we have observed, the group of readers/writers form strong, trusting, collaborative teams. And so our training for reflection also fulfills other difficult missions of medical education in teamwork, peer learning, trust, and care."
