Physicians using a computer diary for self-directed learning found it prompted reflection on patient care. This tool helps track learning stimulated by literature or patient management, often leading to practice change intentions.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Continuing Professional Development
  • Health Informatics

Background:

  • Physicians require structured methods for self-directed learning and professional development.
  • Tracking learning activities is crucial for assessing knowledge acquisition and practice improvement.
  • Digital tools offer potential for efficient recording and analysis of learning experiences.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a computer diary for physicians to document self-directed learning activities.
  • To analyze the sources of learning stimuli and intended outcomes recorded by physicians.
  • To assess physician perceptions of the diary's impact on patient care reflection.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a computer diary application for recording learning items (question, stimulus, resources, outcome).

  • Analysis of records from 123 volunteer physicians using the diary.
  • Survey administered to physicians to gather feedback on their experience with the software.

    • Main Results:

    • Learning was most frequently stimulated by literature review and patient management scenarios.
    • Physicians most often intended to change practice when learning was prompted by patient care.
    • Half of the participating physicians reported increased reflection on patient care due to diary use.

    Conclusions:

    • A computer diary can effectively facilitate the documentation of physicians' self-directed learning.
    • The diary highlights the link between clinical practice and the identification of learning needs.
    • This technology may enhance physician self-awareness regarding patient care and professional growth.
