“[I felt] isolated in study – I happened to meet someone also on the course just as I was losing the will to continue. This helped as he had similar difficulties and together encouraged each other” [ECE, 2010/11]
“I felt isolated never meeting and discussing course with peers” [ECE, 2009/10]
“More interaction either with other students or tutors. I completed this in isolation. motivation got harder and harder.”

Students report feeling isolated in distance learning and would like to have more student-student and student-tutor interaction

Membership of a learning community, grounds learners in a social network to which they can
return regardless of location providing opportunities to create
sound knowledge syntheses (Wheeler et al 2008)
Structured learning communities can lead to better student
engagement, improved self-reported outcomes and overall
satisfaction (Zhao and Kuh 2004)

This project aims to build the research capacity of our research students through the formation of learning communities

Benefits• improve the overall quality of research
outputs during the Masters • enhance the overall student experience• increase student engagement with
peers and education• reduce feelings of isolation and reliance
on supervisor• develop social networks of medical
education researchers who share resources and support each other

Webinars
• Monthly webinars commenced in Feb with 4 hosted so far
• 1 of those led by a student with 2 more planned in June and August
“Your observation is correct. I have had an isolated journey since I started with Introduction to Medical Education up to the Research Project level currently. I believe this will help me complete my current project urgently”
