Global Health Network
Network of networks of international health
collaborations
The Global heath network is designed to link together Information Technology with Global health. We also need to recognize that Global health is interdisciplinary with people from engineering, public health, anthropology, physics, law, who are needed as much if not more than clinicians.

3. How can we best improve Global Health?
Prevention Knowledge
Prevent Multiple diseases
Apply in many places world wide
Proven Effectiveness
Cheap
Sustainable
We would argue that the Internet and Prevention Education is the pathway towards improved global health. A system like this has all the characteristics needed to improve health in that it attacks multiple diseases, it is wide spread, it is powerfully effective, it is inexpensive and sustainable.

4. Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
Nelson Mandela
We need to bring powerful systems to change the health of the world. IT is one such system.

9. How can we improve Prevention education worldwide?
Question:
How can we improve Prevention education worldwide?
Answer:
The concept of the Supercourse is simple To improve the teaching of epidemiology, global health and the Internet in medical, veterinary, nursing schools one can improve the lectures.
Get better lectures

10. What is the global language of research, technology, business and teaching?

11. Helping Teachers

12. 29,000 Faculty 151 Countries Global Health Network
The Supercourse has risen beyond our dreams. Currently we have over 20,400 scientists who have joined from 151 countries.

13. template lectures help?
Who will
template lectures help?
Experienced teachers
New Educators
The “boiler plate” lectures will help those who are experienced teachers to present in different areas. The burden of lecture preparation is reduced such that instead of taking 16 or more hours to prepare a new lecture, it takes less than 2 hours, and the lecture is much better. It will especially help the new teacher. One of the most traumatic days in life is teaching one’s first class. New teachers spend weeks preparing the first lecture, and it still is usually poor. Why can not they use the template lectures of experienced teachers?
