THE HYBRID FUTURE OF MEDICAL EDUCATION
Keywords:
digital technology, social media, information, challenge, education.Abstract
The use of digital technology in health professions education can help in overcoming some of the health workforce–related challenges by providing more accessible, standardized, relevant, timely, and affordable medical education and training. Until recently, digital education was perceived as primarily supporting in-person health professions education. The social distancing measures introduced to control the COVID-19 pandemic have dramatically changed the delivery of health professions education worldwide. Many medical schools and health professions education institutions had to pivot to digital education. With this sudden shift, research and evidence in digital health professions education have become even more important.
