Continuing education meetings and workshops: effects on professional practice and health care outcomes (Review)

In this update, we examined the effects of continuing education meetings on professional practice and patient outcomes. We also investigated factors that might influence the effectiveness of educational meetings. We used methods that have been developed by the Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care (EPOC) Group (Grimshaw 2003) since the previous review ( O’Brien 2001).

MANUSCRIPT: Intended Practice Changes and Barriers among Primary Care Providers

Background. The purpose of accredited CME has recently been enhanced to change competence, performance or patient outcomes. In addition, CME providers seeking accreditation with commendation are required to implement educational strategies to remove, overcome or address barriers to physician change. However, current methods to measure intended changes in practice and

MANUSCRIPT: Effect of a primary care continuing education program on clinical practice of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: translating theory into practice.

Abstract OBJECTIVES: To describe the development and implementation process and assess the effect on self-reported clinical practice changes of a multidisciplinary, collaborative, interactive continuing medical education (CME)/continuing education (CE) program on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS: Multidisciplinary subject matter experts and education specialists used a systematic instructional design approach and collaborated with the

MANUSCRIPT: The impact on medical practice of commitments to change following CME lectures: A randomized controlled trial

Abstract Background: Self-reported commitment to change (CTC) could be a potentially valuable method to address the need for continuing medical education (CME) to demonstrate clinical outcomes. Aim: This study determines: (1) are clinicians who make CTCs more likely to report changes in their medical practices and (2) do these changes persist over time? Methods: Intervention

MANUSCRIPT: THE EFFECT OF THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM ON STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT AND STRESS

Sixty-three students were taught to use concept mapping as a learning strategy at the beginning of their internal

MANUSCRIPT: Improvement in Generic Problem-Solving Abilities of Students by Use of Tutor-less Problem-Based Learning in a Large Classroom Setting.

Abstract Problem-based learning (PBL) was originally introduced in medical education programs as a form of small-group learning, but its use has now spread to large undergraduate classrooms in various other disciplines. Introduction of new teaching techniques, including PBL-based methods, needs to be justified by demonstrating the benefits of such techniques over

MANUSCRIPT: Concept mapping enhances learning of biochemistry.

Abstract Background: Teaching basic science courses is challenging in undergraduate medical education because of the ubiquitous use of didactic lectures and reward for recall of factual information during examinations. The purpose of this study is to introduce concept maps with clinical cases (the innovative program) to improve learning of biochemistry course

MANUSCRIPT: owards Web 3.0: Taxonomies and ontologies for medical education – a systematic review.

Abstract Both for curricular development and mapping, as well as for orientation within the mounting supply of learning resources in medical education, the Semantic Web ("Web 3.0") poses a low-threshold, effective tool that enables identification of content related items across system boundaries. Replacement of the currently required manual with an automatically

MANUSCRIPT: Assessment in undergraduate medical education: a review of course exams.
