The Impact of E-Learning in Medical Education- Jorge G. Ruiz, MD, Michael J. Mintzer, MD, and Rosanne M. Leipzig, MD, PhD

I am sure we have all seen this article and gone through it. As I reflected to make make sense out of my project in the context of learning, I found the article inspiring.

Here I am facilitating learning of clinical skills using the traditional models of learning, which have surely worked for years but with weaknesses we all hope somehow will be overcome , although we didn't know how or we don't know how? Going through the article, it clearly reveals that e- learning is not here to dump the traditional but to complement and improve on it. I don't think I am ready to stop demonstrating how a skill is performed, but surely I am not in a position to see how all my students are improving in learning the skill, therefore I end without  stock of which student has learnt what?
This is where my project is coming in- what about combining the traditional with videos of students performing the skill and I give feedback based on the video? OKAY- is it better? I don't need to convince you, follow the story as it unfolds on tkstoriesatnight.blogspot.com and be part of this exciting innovation.

Surely this article clearly reveals that e-learning can enhance traditional learning rather than replace it. So in the end blended learning offers more hope for effective learning rather than traditional or e- learning alone.
