McGraw-Hill Professional launches AccessEmergency Medicine's Custom Curriculum, a cutting-edge functionality that enables emergency medicine (EM) programme directors to create, track, and report usage of resident rotations online.
With Custom Curriculum, medical programmes can build a resource that matches their specific needs - mapping AccessEmergency Medicine content and capabilities to their educational structure.AccessEmergency Medicine's Custom Curriculum provides a powerful and intuitive online interface for programme directors to manage their training rotations. By replicating their existing rotation structure online, programme directors can: -- Assign reference content, videos, and animations
-- Mandate board review tests and customise the passing grade
-- Schedule grand rounds, lectures, or other offline activities
-- Report usage by resident, rotation, or timeframe
-- Link out to primary references or other web-based resources Through its Shared Library functionality, EM programme directors can choose to submit their curricula to a repository that enables other institutions to not only view - but also potentially adopt and modify - their curricular approach. 'This is an especially good time for McGraw-Hill to offer a Custom Curriculum on AccessEmergency Medicine in light of recent decisions to allow up to an hour of asynchronous learning per week for resident education. We feel sure that program directors will find the tool as useful for educational purposes as the site already is for clinical needs,' said Scott Grillo, Medical Publisher, McGraw-Hill Professional. For emergency medicine residents, AccessEmergency Medicine's Custom Curriculum provides a coherent interface for explicitly tracking educational progress. For a given rotation, each resident knows exactly what is expected and monitors his or her own progress toward achieving that goal. |
