Exercises:

Process

Active learning exercise: Can you process some new information and transform it into something different? Help: Learning by connectivism involves remixing information to create new connections and links. Start by choosing materials from the collection above that are most relevant to you. Keep a record of which materials you have accessed (suggested ways of doing this can be found here). Transform the information from one format to another. A traditional example of this learning exercise might be taking a lecture and processing it to make dot point notes, but also consider other formats like diagrams, mind maps, short movies and more. Revise your notes by transforming them again rather than just passively reading them. The theory is that this exercise helps you to engage elements of active learning and learning by teaching to increase the quality of your own learning while also creating something useful for others to learn with if you choose to share it.

Review
Active learning exercise: Can you review your knowledge by trying this quiz? Coming soon...

Apply

Active learning exercise: Can you apply this information to these clinical examples? Coming soon... Help: For each skill, here is a collection of relevant cases and clinical examples. You can practise these skills and exercises in any order, but the coloured icons () should help you to find examples of a similar difficulty level. Planned future versions of this page should allow you to keep track of which exercises you have completed, for example by exporting the list to Learnist where you can mark each item as 'done'. You can also review the concepts, theory and background knowledge in the 'Review' section above.

Connect

Active learning exercise: Can you connect with the online medical community to share your growing knowledge? Wikiversity is a community devoted to collaborative learning. We build learning resources from the ground up and also link to existing internet resources. By getting involved, you can benefit from powerful educational models including active learning to strengthen your own knowledge, while also helping others around the world to access medical education. Join in the community: Create your own portfolio of medicine study notes for free on Wikiversity - just add {{med portfolio}} to your Wikiversity user page to get started. Add links to this page by learning how to edit Wikiversity pages. Help to improve the quality of Wikipedia medicine articles and consider joining WikiProject Medicine - Contribute clinical images to Wikimedia Commons or help to sort and classify these resources. Join the FOAM community discussions on Twitter by summarising what you have learned, using the hashtags #FOAMed or #MedEd. Create a free blog or consider guest posting on an established medical blog. You can also learn more about the projects that this page is designed to support, including FOAM, and

Purpose

This template creates a wiki version of a jquery accordion, designed originally for medical tutorial pages. Students can choose which fold to open without being lost in a maze of subpages.

Note: you can set different colour themes, so try Color Hexa or similar to pick coordinating colours...
