I teach anatomy, and in my classroom we had lectures and labs. As you know, with all the active learning that is around, more active learning is promoted, and with the accreditation that the AFMC was talking about.... We eliminated all the lectures in anatomy and we replaced them with short podcasts. Before coming to the class, the students have to listen to the podcast, and then we use a method that's called a “flipped class”. What happens is the lecture is outside the class, and when they arrive at the laboratory we sit around the specimens and discuss the objectives of the day. That's the way you can use e-learning.
The other thing we do is YouTube videos, so they can have a look at the images, and online learning where they can go online and colour the muscles, etc. Everything that people can memorize, frankly, you don't need to teach them. If something can be memorized, just give it to people and let them memorize it. Let's bring it up and discuss this kind of stuff. That's the very important part of e-learning.
The other thing is that you can also promote collaboration and communication this way, instead of everybody just sitting there listening to me, and they say I'm a professor and I'm talking. Let them talk, let them teach each other.
