What Formats Can Activities Take? ACCF has recently developed three new learning formats that have been user tested & approved… Meeting on DemandTM Programs Interactive Cases Expert Analysis & Opinion (EAO)
Meeting on DemandTMPrograms (MODs) • Put your live event online with a Meeting on Demand Program. • This learning format allows busy cardiovascular practitioners to participate in educational courses from the convenience of their home or office. • Key opinion leaders can present the latest clinical findings and online learners participate via synchronized slides, video and audio. • In addition, participants can see how their answers to questions compare with those of their peers and benefit from remediation directing them to additional activities on the topic.
Meeting on Demand Programs MODs can include pre- and/or post-tests. Learners receive a summary of their answers and see how their scores compare to others.
Interactive Cases • Interactive cases feature patient scenarios accompanied by multiple-choice questions. • Learners are able to follow their natural clinical decision-making path (experiential learning), then are directed back to an optimal pathway for remediation (limited branching). • Learners are provided a peer analysis, optimal and sub-optimal rationale for Q&A, as well as an aggregate reading of their individual and peer group's responses.
Sample Case – Suboptimal Answer Chosen If the user chooses an incorrect answer: Feedback is provided and a follow-up question is shown for each suboptimal choice.
Sample Case – Suboptimal Answer Feedback User is also shown feedback text explaining the outcome of his/her choice on this follow-up question. Clicking “Continue” returns them to the original question. Let’s go back and reconsider your answer to the preceding question.
Sample Case – Return to Original Question The user is now brought back to the initial question with their first choice grayed out. They must choose between the remaining options. If they choose the correct answer….see next screen:
Sample Case – Final Screen • Upon completion of the case, the user is brought to this screen showing Discussion text about the case. • The user can claim CME/CNE credit from this screen. • Tabs are also shown to feature any additional references or key research that you want to share.
Expert Analysis & Opinion (EAO) • This learning format is designed to provide learners with the expert opinion that they so highly value. • It is flexible enough to feature highlights from a major medical meeting or more straightforward expert opinion from one or more key thought leaders. • EAOs may include: • Pre tests / Post tests • Audio Interviews / Panel Discussions • Video Interviews / Panel Discussions • Text Articles, Summaries, or Transcripts • Slide sets • Figures • Tables • Any combination of these elements • If an activity is not an MOD or an Interactive Case, it is probably an EAO! • Feel free to customize to meet your activity’s needs!
Expert Analysis & Opinion (EAO) • r an example of this type EAOs can take many formats….two examples are provided here. Type 1: “Meeting Highlights” EAOs This type of EAO features coverage from a major medical meeting, which might include some of the following elements: • Emerging Data Summaries: Summation of key data from the top 3 to 10 studies presented in a standardized format, including tables and study design schematics. • Practice Implications: In-depth analysis of the 3 - 10 Emerging Data Summaries bythree opinion leaders, who meet as a panel to discuss and debate the clinical implications of each study. The discussion is transcribed, reviewed, edited, questions added, accredited and posted. • Meeting Highlights: Multimedia activities consisting of downloadable slides with thought leader narration summarizing the 3-10 Emerging Data Summaries, as well as key educational sessions. Accompanied by pre- and post-test questions. • Ten Points to Remember about a key theme. • For an example of this type of EAO, visit: • http://www.cardiosource.org/Certified-Education/Certified-Learning/EAO/2011/General-Cardiology/ENDO.aspx
Example of a Meeting Highlight EAO This EAO has 3 modules and each includes a different combination of elements…. • Video highlights • Text summaries • 10 points to remember • Pre- and post-tests, etc.
Expert Analysis & Opinion (EAO) Type 2: Non-Meeting EAOs This simpler EAO could include elements such as: • Expert Panel Discussion • Point / Counterpoint Discussions • In-depth analysis of an issue by a single thought leader or multiple thought leaders For an example of this type of EAO, visit: http://www.cardiosource.org/Certified-Education/Certified-Learning/EAO/2011/Cardiac-Arrhythmias/Efficacy-of-Apixaban-ACCEL.aspx
Example of a Non-Meeting EAO This is a simpler EAO, featuring an audio interview with two experts, a summary of their discussion, some references, and a post-test.
