You are invited to a workshop that will examine how mobile technologies – including iPad, iBooks and iTunes U – are transforming health sciences education.
Dr Colin Lumsden, Paediatrician and Academic Lead for eLearning at the University of Manchester Medical School, will present his research and share his experience of delivering blended learning curriculum to medical students using iPads and Apple’s content ecosystem. Learn about the successes, challenges and possibilities afforded by the deployment of iPads to students and staff. Guest presenters from local universities will also be on-hand to share their knowledge of creating custom-developed digital content.
The session will include discussion of the practical aspects of deploying technology in government hospital systems – including security considerations – and the opportunities technology presents to clinical practitioners and educators. The workshop will include hands-on activities such as demonstrations, polling and mind mapping. You are encouraged to bring your iPad.
