Health (Medical) Informatics
• Medical Informatics is the branch of science
concerned with the use of computers and
communication technology to acquire, store, analyze,
communicate, and display medical information and
knowledge to facilitate understanding and improve
the accuracy, timeliness, and reliability of decisionmaking.

Lifelong Learning
• Old method: read a few journal articles per
week, go to conference 1/yr
• Reality: Primary care docs would need over
17 hrs/day just to review reasonable and
pertinent material
• Even in one narrow specialty would need 6+hrs/wk
• Practicing docs (all specialties) average 1-1.5 hrs/wk
Class 1
21
THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
Educating and developing exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care
How to Keep Up-to-Date
• Effective:
– Look up answers to questions as they happen on
Intranet or PDA. Applicable to your practice.
– Use resources that continuously monitor research
and constantly update like Epocrates, PEPID,
DynaMed, Essential Evidence+
• Ineffective:
– Read journals (17 hours/day?)
– Consult colleagues (when?)
– Attend conferences (least effective)

How do you study?

•
Take notes in lectures
Read textbooks
Highlight textbooks
Take notes from the highlighting in textbooks
Read the notes
Take tests and
…..forget……
How I did it…
THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
Educating and developing exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care
What did I remember?
• Powerpoint presentations are very linear,
which didn’t help me make connections
• Charts helped
– I would remember WHERE something was on the
page
– Then all I had to do was remember what was
along the top and sides of the chart
– Problem was, I still didn’t have a framework to
hang the actual chart onto…
THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
Educating and developing exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care
Then came CME…
• (That stands for Continuing Military Education)
• Dry, dry, dry….. 300 pages and very linear
• Multiple choice tests that had questions I had
no idea how to answer….
• I was just scraping by at 72%....and something
had to give
• About then I saw a presentation by Dr. Alston
on concept maps.

Firehose
• Can’t afford to keep facts compartmentalized
• Need to make cross connections
• The more connections you make, the easier it
is to remember
– You remember the shape of the diagram
THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
Educating and developing exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care
What is a concept map?
• A framework
• A way to make cross-connections in a way that
Powerpoint presentations (and textbooks)
don’t allow
• Two-dimensional at least, rather than linear

Strategies and Process
•
•
•
•
Establish goals (personal and group)
Establish a schedule (when and how long)
Set an agenda
Establish a purpose ( reinforce learning; test
preparation)
• Share responsibilities and resources
• Don’t add to what you’re already doing: use
what you have
Class 1
64
THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
Educating and developing exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care
Study Smart, Not Hard
• Promote intuitive/integrated versus sensing/linear
learning style
– Look for connections between concepts and facts
– Compare and contrast different concepts
– Tend to do better on multiple-choice exams in medical
school (most do not test recognition and recall of facts and
concepts)
• One of the best way to assess how well you are
doing: evaluate yourself and each other
– Case scenario – problem solving
– Practice test questions…

Approach to Learning
• More predictive of success in medical school
than learning styles
• Three approaches to learning
– Surface
– Deep
– Strategic
Newble, DI & Entwistle, NJ. (1986) Learning styles and approaches:
implications for medical education. Medical Education. (20);162-171.
Class 1
70
THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
Educating and developing exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care
Surface Approach
• Predominate Motivation
– Passing the course
– Fear of failure
• Intention
– Fulfill course requirements
by reproduction
– Gorge and regurgitate
“Is that going to be
on the test?”
Class 1
• Learning Process
– Rote Learning: focus on
tasks and pieces of
information in isolation
– Uses routine procedures
and repetition to
memorize facts and ideas
• Outcome
– Superficial level of
understanding
– Substantial knowledge of
factual information
71
THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
Educating and developing exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care
Deep Approach
• Predominate Motivation
– Interest in subject matter
– Career relevance
• Intention
– Reach personal
understanding
• Learning Process
– Relates evidence to ideas;
details to big picture
– Building frameworks to
add new information
Class 1
• Outcomes
– Deep level of
understanding
– Integrated principles with
facts
– Uses evidence to develop
arguments
– Excellent problem solving
skills
– Success in medical school
– Excellent physician with
honed lifelong learning
skills
72
THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
Educating and developing exemplary physicians who practice patient-centered health care
Strategic Approach
• Predominate Motivation
– Making high grades
– Competing with others
• Intention
– To be successful by any
means
• Learning Process
– Whatever it takes to make
good grades
Class 1
• Outcome
– Variable level of
understanding
– Shallow, course specific
knowledge
– Depth of learning dependent
on assessment strategies of
courses and course
requirements
