Implications for Health Care Education

Podcasting Scenario : Student John had to leave his pharmacology class early to attend to some urgent personal business, but he knew he could catch his professor’s podcast the next morning. That night, he “docked” his iPod so it could charge its batteries and, while he slept, his iTunes “podcatcher” downloaded the previous day’s lectures and several other podcasts of interest (a sports talk show and a pop music podcast). In the morning, he grabbed his iPod and listened to the lecture he missed while riding the bus to school. Hearing the banter and questions from students and his professor’s animated answers, he arrived at school feeling he hadn’t missed much and was well prepared for the next lecture.

Podcasting Scenario : Clinician Dr. Smith , a primary care physician, catches up with his continuing medical education (CME) while riding the R5 train in from the suburbs. He has a 15 minute walk to the station and has been using his smart phone/PDA lately instead of lugging around his heavy laptop computer. His smart phone has mp3 player software and can easily store 10 hours of audio programs. While recharging his phone last night, it automatically downloaded several CME programs from his med school’s alumni site. This morning he decided to review some of the latest thinking on neurological disorders and appreciated that his video phone was able to display the PowerPoint diagrams that accompanied the audio lecture.

Podcasting Scenario: Patient Martha , a 55 year old, mildly obese mother of four, was waiting in her surgeon’s office for her last consult with him before she undergoes her first angioplasty procedure. The receptionist gave her a video iPod and began to instruct her, but Martha already owned an iPod and needed little help. She learned what to expect before, during and after the procedure. Some of the questions she had jotted down to ask her surgeon were easily answered upon reviewing the video presentation. After a brief consult with her surgeon to help clarify her remaining questions, she was allowed to take home the iPod to learn more about her risk factors and strategies for reducing them.
