The secondary objectives are to explore: (1) The influence of context in the design, delivery and outcomes of the flipped classroom…

Effects of interventions for improving mental health of health professional students has not been established. This review analysed interventions to support mental health of health professional students and their effects. The full holdings of Medline, PsycINFO, EBM Reviews, Cinahl Plus, ERIC and EMBASE were searched until 15th April 2016.…

The themes that emerge from a review of the literature on continuing education (CE) in the health professions fail either to describe the CE phenomenon adequately or to explain the disappointing results reported from CE evaluation studies. This represents a simplistic and incomplete view of CE and the effects of CE experiences. The major objective…

This article reviews studies of the effectiveness of continuing education in the health professions, notes weaknesses in the continuing education system, and suggests strategies for improving it. (Author/CT)

Health care is demanding increasing resources and attention in numbers of health care workers, in levels of skills required, in time spent in training, and in dollars expended. A greater spectrum of skills is required to cope with increasing health care demands, yet trends toward specialization and fracturing of responsibilities assigned to health…

Health administration students attending a college or university in Los Angeles, California, participated in a study of the effect of cooperative education. Three groups of students were selected. Group 1 consisted of undergraduate minority students--five males and five females (19-28 years old) with no prior health related work experience. Groups…
