MANUSCRIPT: Creativity, Self-Directed Learning and the Architecture of Technology Rich Environments

So, how do institutions and designers develop environments that support self-directed learning? A majority of current research focuses on internal characteristics of self-directed learners. Yet gradually, we are  beginning to understand that external factors have an impact as well. Guglielmino (1977) noted that certain learning contexts are more effective at promoting self-directed learning. Learning environments that use technology in meaningful ways may

In this study, rather than stop at finding relevant items, we considered how people use a search system in the completion of a broader work task. To conduct the study, we created 12 tasks that required

MANUSCRIPT: Fragmentation in US Medical Education, Research, and Practice: The Need for System Wide Defrag

Indeed, fragmentation is pervasive in all facets of American medicine and health care, including systems of medical education and research, health care delivery, and practice transformation. Fragmentation results from a lack of national and regional health care planning, an absence of a unified vision for social accountability and moral imperative, and a deficiency of financial incentive for a

MANUSCRIPT: Protocol for development of the guideline for reporting evidence based practice educational interventions and teaching (GREET) statement

There are an increasing number of studies reporting the efficacy of educational strategies to facilitate the development of knowledge and skills underpinning evidence based practice (EBP). To date there is no standardised guideline for describing the teaching, evaluation, context or content of EBP educational strategies. The heterogeneity in the reporting of EBP educational interventions

MANUSCRIPT: How Do Social Networks and Faculty Development Courses Affect Clinical Supervisors’ Adoption of a Medical Education Innovation? An Exploratory Study

A clinical supervisor's social network may be as important as faculty development course participation in determining whether the supervisor adopts an educational innovation. Faculty development initiatives should use faculty members' social networks to improve the adoption of educational innovations and help build and maintain communities of practice. via How Do Social
