We will use this wiki for posting assignments, commenting on peoples' posts, adding interesting information, and keeping up with what is current. This course is about physician/healthcare professional competence. How do physicians maintain their competence? If there are topics you would like to introduce, please let me know. Since it is a fall course, I know we are all busy and have unusual schedules. The course is oriented around 6 units of study, and we will have discussion sessions for some.. Since we are using self directed learning and collaboration, almost all the work will be collaborative after unit 1. I will try my best to have all the readings available through the wiki. Here is the course overview from the syllabus. ACMD 615 – Maintenance of Competence in Health Professions (2 units): The focus is on ways in which health professionals are able to maintain their competence, assess their performance in practice, reflect on practice, and stay up to date. As much of what is done in practice is not learned in residency and rapidly expanding and changing information and techniques threaten our proficiency in practice, questions related to how professionals can take steps to maintain their competence and proficiency are at the heart of lifelong learning. In the class we will examine and discuss how people become lifelong learners, self-assessment methods, the importance of developing skills in search and appraisal of resources, how we learn in practice and issues of change. Assignments: Class 1: We will introduce ourselves and please read one of the following two papers: QualityMeasures+NEJM.pdf or committmenttochange.pdf To access the Elluminate site: Main site: http://elm.elluminate.com/HOSTEDUSC/ However, I tried this one and it worked for me.
