Yesterday brought its share of excitement, today is no different. In prizes, Thomas Judd, a CTF in Taunton, won the TASME Teaching Innovation and Excellence Prize 2018 – for his presentation on “Virti education platforms – fully immersive interactive 360 degree videos on your smartphone”. He is NOT allowed to have the Shield though.
Gloucester Academy led by Phil Davies (pictured) launched their new gaming education library (medicalgames.co.uk) today as part of the workshop they are running ” Should education be fun? Exploring the use of educational games to stimulate learning in medical education.”
Presentations today from Bristol Medical School included several relevant to MB21 – Sally Stuart presented work on the HCA experience in Year 1 on “A New Starting Point; An evaluation of a Healthcare Assistantship Programme for first year medical students” and further Year 1 in a separate presentation “A fresh pair of eyes; a qualitative study looking at first year medical students’ reflections on NHS service provision.” Taz Subramanian explored the new technology introduced to the medical school this year in “Using the Microsoft Surface Hub to integrate pre-clinical and clinical knowledge in casebased teaching.” #ASME
