Hi Derek, I am presently working with others on research to embed a clinical terminology amongst clinical students, practitioners and academics. There are synergies between this work and openEHR ontology neutral archetypes. Your project sounds fascinatng and I'd like to know more about it as you progress.

Students complain that they labourously document their activities and observations on an attachment, but get very little feedback on whether the amount, quality and variety of their experience is suburb/good/bad/unacceptable for the particular attachment. However giving the student this feedback requires a senior clinician to read the ePortfolio and comment - and this is too time consuming to happen in practice. > > Question: Could openEHR allow students to document their clinical experience in a machine-process able form? > > They could then get immediate feedback on how they compare to other students on the same attachment, and how the attachment compares to similar attachments done by other firms. > > If the answer to the question is yes, any ideas on how to make this happen? > > Thx, > > Derek > > _______________________________________________ > openEHR-technical mailing list > openEHR-technical at openehr.org > http://lists.chime.ucl.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/openehr-technical > -- Dr. Juanita Fernando Academic Convenor BMedSc (Hons), Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences Chair, Health Sub-Committee, Australian Privacy Foundation Councillor, Australasian College of Health Informatics Mobile Health Research Group,Faculty of Information Technology Mail: Level 3, Bld 15, Monash University Vic 3800 Phone: 990 58537 Fax: 990 58134 Email: juanita.fernando at med.monash.edu.au Web page: https://users.monash.edu.au/~juanitaf/ CRICOS code: 00145 -- Dr Juanita Fernando Convenor BMedSc (Hons), Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences Chair, Health Sub-Committee, Australian Privacy Foundation Councillor, Australasian College of Health Informatics Mobile Health Research Group, Faculty of Information Technology Mail: Level 3, Bld 15, Monash University Vic 3800 Phone: 990 58537 Fax: 990 58134 Email: juanita.fernando at med.monash.edu.au Web : http://users.monash.edu.au/~juanitaf/
