@nhssm I think its not so much shallow learning that is the problem- it would need to be a supplement to other types of learning. say for example that a person learning completely online would raise the problems of not being able to collaborate, etc..

Would you include simulation courses as e-learning? particularly applicable for medicine I would have thought.
Crowd Doc
i know they are very common in business and management programs..probably would be very useful for med students especially
Claire Charras
My main challenge for e-learning is who do you ask questions to you need to?
Jeff Frick
Ask the crowd. Might be a bit slower, but better chance of getting the question to someone who knows.
Crowd Doc
yes, i also find the same problems with e-learning. you need to have some sort of presenter/leader available online

What does it do? A way to chat via Twitter accounts but it more chat feel I assume? Easier to keep convo in one place?
Gemma Finnegan I replied from Twitter App but could have done so from dedicated page for the hashtag - keeps everything on one place. Feels like a message board.
Kelsey Mulcahy Users can sign-in from FB, Twitter or LinkedIN, comment/vote and CrowdChat will post to the respective site with # automatically included!
Jeff Frick
much easier to follow threaded conversation. Plus the Q and A doesn't disappear into the ether.

Has NHS used the release of Obama Care in the US as a use case for how the medical field should handle Social?
Kelsey Mulcahy
thats an interesting question for the curious US people..
Gemma Finnegan
tbh NHS system very different from US model. EHR is interesting to watch though. #offtopic

@chris_yanni @nhssm I agree with you, the content matters more than who is presenting. There are brilliant people who cannot adequately explain their ideas and vice-versa

I use a combination of classroom and online learning / discussion boards. Their success depends on willingness to engage. #nhssm
