Understanding self-directed learning (SDL) when using point of care information systems (POCIS) can inform educational providers of the usefulness of the system for continuing medical education (CME). Sen's capability approach can offer a unique perspective to understand SDL, which considers the extent to which individual valued learning needs can be achieved. The aim of the study was to pilot the use of a questionnaire informed by the capability approach for understanding SDL when using POCIS in the context of CME.
A semi-structured questionnaire aligned to the capability approach (Capability Approach for SDL with POCIS Questionnaire - CA-SPQ) in the context of CME was developed and implemented with 200 users of a POCIS (BMJ Best Practice).
The response rate was 92 and 78% of users considered that their valued outcomes were achieved and that they could apply their new learning to practice. The questionnaire had high content, face, and construct validity.
The CA-SPQ can offer a practical instrument to provide data and useful information for understanding SDL, when using POCIS in the context of CME. It also has the potential for adaptation to other areas of medical education.
了解使用即时护理信息系统(POCIS)时的自我导向学习(SDL),可以为教育提供者提供有关该系统用于继续医学教育(CME)的有用性的信息。森的能力方法可以提供一个独特的视角来理解 SDL,该方法考虑了个体有价值的学习需求能够在多大程度上得到实现。本研究的目的是在 CME 背景下使用 POCIS 时,试用一种基于能力方法的问卷来了解 SDL。
在 CME 背景下,开发并实施了一种与能力方法(Capability Approach for SDL with POCIS Questionnaire - CA-SPQ)相一致的半结构化问卷,该问卷在 200 名 POCIS(BMJ Best Practice)用户中进行了测试。
应答率为 92%,78%的用户认为他们的预期结果得到了实现,并且他们可以将新的学习应用于实践中。问卷具有较高的内容、表面和结构效度。
CA-SPQ 可以为理解 CME 背景下使用 POCIS 时的 SDL 提供实用的工具,提供数据和有用的信息。它还有可能适用于医学教育的其他领域。
