I’m not a Constructivist, Behaviourist, Cognitivist, or Connectivist. This is not a call for a return to an older theory. I’m a pragmatist, like many educators. I flirt outrageously with every theory that will have me. I’m ideologically promiscuous. I go with what works, and I am ruthless in weeding

RESOURCE: Why Online Programs Fail, and 5 Things We Can Do About It | Online Learning | HYBRID PEDAGOGY

Online learning in its current iterations will fail. The failure of online education programs is not logistical, nor political, nor economic: it’s cultural, rooted in our perspectives and biases about how learning happens and how the internet works (these things too often seen in opposition). For learning to change drastically --

RESOURCE: First look at analysing threaded Twitter discussions from large archives using NodeXL #moocmooc Jisc CETIS MASHe

There are three main reactions that are relatively easy to extract from twitter: retweets, favouring and replies. There are issues with what these actions actually indicate as well as the reliability of the data. For example users will use ‘favouring’ in different ways, and not everyone uses a twitter client

RESOURCE: MOOCagogy: Assessment, Networked Learning, and the Meta-MOOC | Online Learning | HYBRID PEDAGOGY

Instruction does not equate to learning. This is the fundamental fly in the ointment of instructional design, and the epistemological failing of learning management systems and most MOOC platforms. Learning, unfortunately, is something no instruction has ever quite put its finger on, and something that no methodology or approach can

ABSTRACT: Medical Education: Part of the Problem and Part of the Solution.

Medical education today is pedagogically superb, but the graduates of our educational programs are still unable to successfully translate decades of biomedical advances into health care that reliably meets the Institute of Medicine quality criteria. Realizing the promise of high-quality health care will require that medical educators accept that they

ABSTRACT: Assessing competencies during education in psychiatry

Abstract The utilization of competencies in medical education is relatively recent. In 1999 the United States Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) established six main competencies.

ABSTRACT: Journal club for faculty or residents: A model for lifelong learning and maintenance of certification

Abstract The journal club offers a model for lifelong learning and maintenance of certification (MOC) for residents and faculty staff. First, it sharpens participants' critical appraisal skills by providing a space to discuss relevant medical literature. Second, it motivates participants to seek new medical literature on their own using technology.

ABSTRACT: As technology and generations in medical education change, what remains is the intersection between educator, learners, assessment and context

Abstract The information era has begun to create major shifts in educational systems, including those in undergraduate medical and graduate psychiatric training programmes. Despite these changes, teaching and learning in formal educational settings remains predominately the product of the intersection between educator, learners, assessment and context. This article reviews intrinsic
