Online Learning and Instruction in Health: Addressing the Demands for Education and Training through Computer-Based Technologies
Abstract
Online learning and instruction are important components of adult education in the field of health. This chapter describes how computer-based technologies are being applied in the training and continuing education of health professionals and in health promotion. Curriculums previously thought to be inappropriate for web-based delivery are now being offered online. Innovations in online learning and instruction have improved delivery of web-based education and have provided educational opportunities for many that were “unreachable” by traditional classrooms. An example of how a solely face-to-face course was revised and delivered in three formats including face-to-face, blended and completely online is provided, as well as examples of best practices and future trends for online learning and instruction.
