What is medical education gathering?
What are we assuming?
• Clicking• Active vs passive choices• Learning vs. Interest – “What is there?”• Tool is ready to learn with and from• Obedience• Analytical tools readiness
What are we interpreting?
• Activity in some form…– Usage – Learning
• With some interpretation…– Inference– Assumptions– Hope
Analysis of Learning: What are we conceptualizing?
• Positivist, deterministic• Intervention, Treatment• Complex• Dynamic• Co-influencing• Participatory, Proximal, Distal• Activity• Expertise
Transparency and Literacy
• Of data collection• Of reporting the data back to user (faculty, student)
• Helping user (faculty, student) make sense of the data
Just “our” systems?• Across institutional and personal web
applications (Retalis et al, 2006)
– Limited view of learning– Expanded view of learning
