Competence by design is a revolutionary change in medical education that will lead to increased assessment. Making sense of the large volumes of assessment will require analyzing data and representing it graphically to promote feedback and learning. Learning analytics provides the tools to interpret these data and derive meaning for programs and learners.
Come learn more about how data analysis using learning analytics can help your program assist your trainees. The 2017 Learning Analytics Summit in medical education will bring together an international group of experts to review key concepts and explore important questions in this emerging field.
Over this two day course you will hear plenaries from leaders in the field, participate in interactive learning sessions with your peers and help build the community of practice that will shape the environment.
Dr. Rachel Ellaway & Dr. Stephanie Teasley
On day one of the summit, you’ll be introduced to learning analytics, with practical examples of their use for learners and training programs. In small groups, you will discuss how learning analytics can help you in your role, and later in the day, you will explore practical scenarios on how to use Analytics to help trainees reflect and and plan their learning.
It is fair to say that, before my last trip to Canada (that makes me sound very jet set-like, it was in fact, also my only trip to Canada), I really did not know what to expect; of the country, of the people and certainly not of the ICRE, which I attended in Vancouver.
