Cases on Instructional Design and Performance Outcomes in Medical Education
There is increasing attention placed on curricular programs in healthcare at the undergraduate, graduate, and continuing medical education levels. While medical institutions are beginning to hire instructional designers and medical educators to ensure adherence to instructional design principles, many medical educators have been appointed to lead instructional interventions based on their subject-matter expertise. Few have received formal instruction relative to designing instruction. Cases on Instructional Design and Performance Outcomes in Medical Education is an essential research publication that examines the design and delivery of education programs for healthcare professionals and provides them with the foundational knowledge needed to design effective instruction for a variety of audiences and learning contexts. Highlighting a wide range of topics such as healthcare, medical education, and online learning, this book is ideal for educators, physicians, nurses, allied health professionals, and academicians who are responsible for designing instructional activities.
Intersections in Healing
Healthcare professionals and health science librarians need to know more than research practices and clinical knowledge to become transformational individuals and leaders in their field. Empathy and compassion; appreciation for the various social and cultural contexts of health, care, and illness; and utilizing the contributions the arts, humanities, and humanistic social sciences can add depth and dimension to their work. While librarians are not usually the healthcare professionals themselves, they serve an important role in the development of healthcare professionals through their work in educational and/or healthcare settings, helping train others in the goals of the curriculum and in li...

Patient-Centred Medicine in Transition
This book challenges functional models for more aesthetic and ethical models, where communication is grounded in values systems of cultures. Here, communication is treated as a distributed phenomenon involving networks of persons, activities and artifacts, and extends beyond doctor-patient relationships to working in and across teams around patients. The purpose of the book is to stimulate thinking about how patient care and safety may be improved through a focus upon the ‘non-technical’ work of doctors – interpersonal communication, teamwork and situation awareness in teams. The focus is then not on the personality of the doctor, but on the dynamics of relationships which form doctors’ multiple identities.
