by Dr. Bertalan Meskó on November 23, 2010

The 8th week of the world’s first university accredited course focusing on medicine and social media was dedicated to New Media in Medicine and Education 2.0. Many thanks to Doctor Anonymous who sent  a personal message to my students (see the video below)!

First slideshow: New Media in Medicine

  • Lifehacks about how to be efficient online

podcast

Take-home message: Make your online work as efficient, productive and time-saving as possible.

Second slideshow: Education 2.0

  • What we have to face: lack of inspiration (educators) and lack of motivation (students)
  • But we can find motivation and inspiration online
  • e.g. Ted Talks – Ken Robinson
  • Why? We’re changing (students, even children use different communication channels) – Vision of students;
  • We’re digital natives, Generation Z.
  • Many examples, statistics about the problems with education
  • “If you want to teach me, you first have to reach me”

Take-home message: The web is full of educational resources. Use them wisely.
