Based on our standardized patient examination experience, we believe standardized patient simulations can be used to assess certain forms of learners' empathic behaviors.
Systems that can adapt, sense and infer what is going on within a learning scenario may also be based on real-time human intelligence as well as that captured in the form of metadata ontologies, learner models, learning designs, etc.
Within the context of communities of practise, such as those referred to in this study, this benefit can take the form of empowering the learner to imagine what they could be beyond the restrictions of their curriculum.
Our educational system needs to develop students for which "critical thinking" is not just a buzz word but a rigorous and well-structured form of educating young learners to become independent thinkers, innovators and developers of new ideas.
In addition, residents were invited to form a community of learners (CoL) and meet face-to-face for one hour each week to discuss information acquired during the Internet sessions and collectively explore its relevance to Radiology practice in Kenya.
