Climate Politics on the Border

Handbook of Research on Updating and Innovating Health Professions Education: Post-Pandemic Perspectives
The outbreak of the Coronavirus in early 2020 resulted in unprecedented changes to health professions education.

However, lessons learned from these approaches have also resulted in increased technology adoption, innovative assessment strategies, and increased creativity in the learning environment.
