Abstract:
The move to online learning has become one of the most challenging events in physician assistant (PA) education; however, new advances in online technology now make it possible to deliver an entire PA didactic curriculum online. The blending of the latest innovations in online technology with a problem-based learning (PBL) curriculum enables programs to engage students using the Socratic method online while providing feedback in real time. While this novel approach to learning is still being evaluated as data is continually collected, preliminary results indicate online technology can be successfully implemented in a blended PA education curriculum.
