Our simulated model with fictitious, case study patients, has been used in the years in different ways, here are a few examples:
Some of the universities give PKB some health data, from which we Universities create case study patients in our the Education server. Students are then able to look at that record , for example in the context of Problem Based Learningand add data to it, as well as complete care plans and discuss the medical case with tutors and colleagues. When appropriate, PKB will create the case studies on behalf of the university, based on the data provided by the education institution itself.
At City University Midwifery course, half of the students play the role of the Midwife, and half play the role of the parent-to-be, working on shared care planning within a case study scenario which was invented by the module lead. The students interact in the platform and then they switch roles.
...
Coordinator creates dummy emails for the case study patients
Coordinator invites the case study patients to register, then completes registration
Coordinator decides who’s the person in charge of adding data to the fictitious patient’s record
Person in charge logs in as a patient and add data to the record.
When appropriate, to make the process less admin intensive for educators, PKB will create the case studies on behalf of the university, based on the data provided by the education institution itself. This is done for example when the same case study needs to be replicated for a number of times.
While you are using PKB
Your PKB Project Manager will be available for support, and will send you statistics about your students engagement on the platform. Let us know if there are specific stats you’d like to see.
