Pre-conference+Workshop+3

(September 24, 10:00 am – 4:00 pm) – Anya Wood and Gary Woodill** The use of technology in healthcare education has increased dramatically over the last decade, and none too soon. Because of rapid change, providing meaningful access to learning opportunities for both practitioners and the general public has become increasingly important. With the advent of the Internet the general public has become more knowledgeable and, in turn, demands access to healthcare education in a variety of different formats. Practitioners continue to experience time constraints and a need to relate training to practical, real-world experience, making accessibility and application to real-life top priorities.
 * Workshop 3**
 * Emerging Learning Technologies in Healthcare Training

In this workshop you will see and try out a variety of new learning technologies that have emerged in healthcare and medicine. (Participants interested in emerging learning technologies who are not in the healthcare field are also welcome.)
