SCORM 2.0 Discussion Plans are underway for the development of SCORM 2.0, a next generation of the Shareable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) for running, describing, and exchanging e-learning activities. The current version of SCORM supports self-directed web-based learning. What other learning and teaching approaches should SCORM support? The Learning-Education-Training Systems Interoperability (LETSI) federation is gathering Teaching and Learning requirements for SCORM 2.0. Dr. Jacqueline Haynes and Nina Deibler will ask questions of the group to incorporate the needs of healthcare educators into the broader SCORM model. |

Keynote Address: Supporting a Culture of Collaboration Across Professional Medicine (PPT, 11 MB)
Darrell G. Kirch, MD While higher education and health care have held fast to their traditional, individualistic culture, the world has fundamentally changed to a greater emphasis on collaborative, coordinated, and integrative efforts. These transformations are already underway in professional medicine, but more can be done to support the diffusion of change across the industry. |

Philip Dodds Memorial Lecture: “What are we saying to each other?” (PPT, 1.3 MB)
Rachel Ellaway, PH.D. Philip Dodds, chief technical architect of the SCORM model for interoperable e-learning, was a major force for the development and adoption of technology standards for education and training. As Vice President for Engineering for ARP Instruments, he both programmed and played the synthesizer that communicated with the alien spaceship in "Close Encounters" and spoke the now famous line "what are we saying to each other?" Starting from this seminal question Dr Ellaway will consider healthcare education technology standards as a lingua franca for all involved in the education and training of healthcare professionals in the years to come. |

|
11:30 AM |
What is an excellent teacher in an e-learning economy? The proliferation of e-learning resources has many health professions educators reevaluating their role as a teacher. How can teachers leverage e-learning resources and effectively engage learners to achieve the expected learning outcomes? Professor Harden discusses the equation for excellent teachers in the new world order. |
|
12:00 PM |
Rethinking Maintenance of Competence (PPT, 3.0 MB)
Dame Lesley Southgate, DBE DSc FRCP FRCGP Assessing a clinican’s competence is a difficult activity from both a scientific and political perspective. While many in the health professions consider competence to be maintained through continuing education and professional development activities, more rigorous assessment is necessary to provide evidence of competence. Professor Dame Lesley Southgate discusses how the health professions might rethink the approach to maintenance of competence. |

Transforming Medical Education
Moderated by Darrell G. Kirch, MD Should healthcare education undergo a transformation, and if so, what are the steps on the path of change? Dr. Kirch moderates a discussion where you, the participants, voice your ideas about how healthcare education should change and what we need to do to get there. A synthesis of ideas will be captured online. Visit http://groups.medbiq.org/medbiq/display/AC08/Home to share your ideas before the conference. |

|
Towards a Lifelong Learning Portfolio Just what is a lifelong learning portfolio, how should the health professions be using them, and towards what ends? Dr. Clyman moderates a discussion where participants can address these questions head on. A synthesis of ideas will be captured online. Visit http://groups.medbiq.org/medbiq/display/AC08/Home to share your ideas before the conference. |

Registries for Sharing Educational Content Moderated by David Twitchell, Ph.D. The use of registries to share health professions educational resources is on the rise. Is government willing to contribute to these registries, and is a larger infrastructure to connect these registries feasible? A synthesis of ideas will be captured online. Visit http://groups.medbiq.org/medbiq/display/AC08/Home to share your ideas before the conference. |

Ongoing Evaluation of Physician Performance: Developing a Performance Portfolio (PPT, 461 KB) Cary Sennett, MD, PhD, Senior Vice President, Strategy and Clinical Analytics, American Board of Internal Medicine Self-evaluation of practice performance is an integral part of the Maintenance of Certification programs of the ABMS-member certifying boards. The American Board of Internal Medicine—the largest of those boards—offers PIMs (Practice Improvement Modules) to help physicians analyze their performance in specific areas of practice. In some sense, though, the PIMs are just part of a broader portfolio that can help physicians identify and capitalize on opportunities to improve performance. Dr Sennett provides an overview of a performance portfolio designed to support physicians in their ongoing efforts to improve the quality of care. |
