Programme Evaluation- Criteria • Branch et al 1999- modified: • Accuracy – current, evidence-based, up to date • Appropriate– local practices, vocabulary,
humour, bias, stereotyping, user level of experience
• Presentation– clear & orderly• Link between purpose, content & activity –
redundancy, irrelevant activities• Complete & ready to use – breadth & depth • Engaging– interesting, challenging & clinical• Organised- organising tools, TOC, references
Evaluation- Overall Results I• 179 Fellowship activities evaluated:• Recommendations: • Approved without change (110)• Approved with minor change (56)• Approved with major change (4)• Not approved (8)• Unable to evaluate (1)
• Comments made
Evaluation- Overall Results II• Mechanisms of Action- excellent quality of
content, easy to understand with illustrations and video animations, accurate content
• Articles- most articles very relevant & appropriate, a few less informative, so can be removed
Evaluation- Overall Results III• Snippets- most excellent quality, some need
pause tab on video; some redundancy and repetition with e.g. ADHD activities, US centric humour in some videos
• Case study Drills- some would benefit from guidelines and international comparisons (less USA-centric), more references
• Self-assessment exams: relevant & accurate• Other: useful peer answers tool;
commercial interests declared;
Next Step • Second tier of evaluation by faculty experts• Live Cambridge conferences • Endorsement via CUHP• International CPD programme• Possibilities:• Mobile app• Team learning; Non-medical prescribers• ‘Knowing that’ ‘Knowing how’
(performance improvement)• Patient / health outcomes
CLAHRC Experience• What I learnt:• Psychopharmacology• E-learning evaluation literature• Challenges:• Technology- flash player• Methodology• Stakeholder interests• Future: co-ordination of large number of
experts
