Technology-Mediated Education in Health Sciences describes the
empowering possibilities that are available to health sciences
educators at tertiary institutions. It is a guide to using
technology to enhance the educator's message, without the
technology 'becoming' the message. Technology-Mediated Education in
Health Sciences establishes ten paradigms for achieving your goals
as an educator with the aid of technology. It positions the
educator as the human face that defines and drives the
teaching–learning experience, with technology and media playing
supporting roles. An extensive toolbox supports educators in
implementing new technologies, and includes sample lesson plans,
factors to consider in materials production, a guide to develop
instructional materials, writing tips, checklists for evaluating
study materials and advice on culturally appropriate design.
Various case studies have been provided that discuss how technology
has been successfully adopted in health sciences contexts. The
authors draw from the latest trends and developments in ICTs to
present a vision of the modern lecture hall and educator–student
relationship. In it, the educator is seen as a facilitator;
knowledge is the product of collaborative discovery; and
communication is diverse, immediate and constructive. Throughout
the book, the authors remain aware of the fine line that
early-adopting educators have to tread: on the one hand, they
cannot be overly dependent on ICTs (thereby turning education into
a mere technological activity); and on the other, they should not
over-estimate the power of technology that they minimise their own
human influence on learning. The question that the reader is left
with is: 'Which technologies and methods are appropriate for my
content, my context and my students?.
