1. An electronic case recording system for student use on clinics 31 st August 2009 C Trace BVetMed MRCVS e-Media Unit4

2. Student numbers on rotations are increasing at the RVC… The Situation:

3. Student numbers on rotations are increasing at the RVC… but without an increase in number of cases in all rotations The Situation:

4. Students not satisfied with the way theyre assessed, and often lack feedback National Student Survey 2008

5. Our response: Develop a system that: Students can enter cases into Students can utilise to work through cases Students can use to look up cases Staff can use as a teaching resource Can satisfy both staff and students

6. Phase 1: e-Learning Phase 2 e-Learning

7. Phase 2: Phase 3 e-Learning

8. Phase 3:

9. Entire process: Completed template e-mailed to e-Media, uploaded to casebank VetConnect

10. VetConnect screen-grab with flash case

14. Feedback Would be a good way of revising for finals, as a lot of these questions are case- based e-Cases are good if its quiet on rotations, as can look up cases They reinforce a logical approach to solving a case, which would be useful in practice e-Cases are good at getting the students to work up a case in a structured manner They help facilitate deep learning

15. Problems weve encountered Getting e-Cases through for uploading Quality control not always adequate Owner consent Ownership of content – student or RVC?

16. Outcomes: Clinicians using system in small animal, farm and equine rotations All final years exposed to system Over 25 cases edited and shared online Second stage of project now being planned
