      Best evidence, iterative and technology-enhanced teaching learning strategies to achieve learning outcomes in health professions education

      Goal

      Maximize the use of information and communication technology for the improvement of all the design elements of teaching and learning, from instructional analysis, to selection of strategies, and assessment of student achievement.


      Rationale

      With the development in online technology and growing use of virtual classrooms, strategies should use appropriate information and communication technology applications to facilitate achievement of learning outcomes, motivate and engage students, develop lifelong learning. This trend is not emphasized in the current courses. if graduates of the program are expected to effectively teach their courses and achieve course outcomes (which are discussed in core courses), they should all have deep understanding of the variety of strategies, judiciously select and effectively implement the appropriate teaching-learning strategies to achieve their course outcomes. It will integrate essential topics related to delivery of instruction and cover planning, conduct and evaluation of best-evidence, technology-enhanced teaching learning strategy or a combination thereof in various instructional settings.

    • The Covid 19 pandemic accelerated the use of technology in all levels of education. Accelerated because we all know that use of ICT in education is already substantial even before the most devastating pandemic in this first quarter of the 21st century.

      New Technology same Outcomes

      While technology available for education continue to expand, the goal of education pretty much stayed the same. Our basic question then for this unit is this: Did the enhanced use of technology resulted to better achievement of outcomes?

    • Since all of you can be considered 'content' expert, I would assume that you have all the necessary 'content knowledge' needed to successfully implement your TPACK inspired instructional design.

      Hence, in today's session we will focus on 'Pedagogical Knowledge.' In preparation, I want you remember all the 'pedagogical knowledge' that you learned in HP 201, HP 211, and HP 221 and relate them to the TPACK framework.

      Specifically, I want you to reflect on the following:

      Individual Reflections:

      1. Looking back, what is/are your favorite educational theory/theories? Why? 
      2. Do you think the theories and the learning principles that they adhere to will be useful in making curricular and instructional decisions related to technology enhanced teaching (TET)? Explain your response.

      Group Reflection: (after individual sharing)

      1. From all the individual reflections, as a group please a formulate a list of 'pedagogical knowledge' that you believe HPEd teachers must have in order to succeed in TET.
      2. Give your explanation for  recommending the inclusion of each of these 'pedagogical knowledge' in your list.
      3. In what way will these 'pedagogical knowledge' influence TET? Or in what way will they guarantee achievement of outcomes as a result of TET.
