Paper Abstract:
|
Nowadays, Virtual Learning Environments are typical tools in education and training areas and they are the basis for online
courses and e-learning projects in general. In hospitals and other healthcare institutions there is an increasing shift to
use this kind of environments and on-line methods to give support to their training processes. The current work describes
the application of these environments and methods in the context of the hospital La Ribera (Alzira, Spain). Most of the
current e-learning projects in hospitals are involved in the training of their personnel. These projects are usually focused
on on-line courses to allow hospital employees to access these courses anywhere at any time. This work addresses the
personnel training in a blended-learning modality that combines the flexibility of scheduling on-line sessions with the
learning in real hospital scenarios. A method is proposed to guide the usage of e-learning platforms in a hospital training
context and a case study is described in order to evaluate this usage. |
