Purposive Learning01:22

Purposive Learning

320
E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

142
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Learning Disabilities01:25

Learning Disabilities

461
Learning disabilities are cognitive disorders caused by neurological impairments that affect cognitive functions like language and reading, without indicating overall intellectual or developmental challenges. These disabilities differ from global intellectual or developmental disabilities as they are limited to distinct cognitive functions. Common learning disabilities include dysgraphia, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, each of which impacts unique aspects of learning.

Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

888
Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

1.7K
Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Continuing Professional Development

Background:

  • Emergency medicine is increasingly complex due to rapid advancements and policy changes.
  • High cognitive load on providers necessitates innovative professional development.
  • Current professional development methods struggle to accommodate busy clinician schedules.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a web-based, spaced education platform for ongoing professional development in emergency medicine.
  • To assess engagement and performance metrics of the educational initiative.
  • To gather participant perceptions on the platform's effectiveness and value.

Main Methods:

  • A web-based, spaced education platform delivered weekly scenario-based questions to faculty and fellows.
  • Content covered clinical practice, quality improvement, policies, and educational efforts.
  • Real-time feedback, explanations, integrated learning materials, and an anonymized leaderboard were provided.

Main Results:

  • High engagement with 100% of faculty and fellows participating at some point.
  • 92% of participants completed all questions; 65% correct on the first attempt.
  • Repeat testing improved scores on challenging questions from 41% to 90%; positive feedback on content relevance and explanations.

Conclusions:

  • A web-based, spaced education curriculum effectively engaged emergency medicine faculty and trainees.
  • The initiative demonstrated high perceived value and successful application of spaced learning, test-enhanced learning, and gamification principles.
  • This flexible and innovative approach supports continuous professional development in a demanding specialty.
