A Collaborative Approach to Medical Education
Welcome to MedU!
MedU is the place where medical education knows no boundaries – crossing core disciplines, time, and distance, empowering medical educators to collaborate and educate tomorrow’s physicians in today’s health care environment. Comprehensively based on nationally accepted curricula, MedU delivers high quality learning tools to students whenever and wherever they are learning. Through a collaborative process with national medical education organizations and continuous updates by editorial boards, MedU creates curricular flexibility and frees faculty to turn their attention to individual student learning needs. Additionally, MedU Communities offer educators and students the rare ability to impact the educational approaches used directly.
MedU, currently in development, is the new home to CLIPP – the Computer-assisted Learning in Pediatrics Program, SIMPLE - Simulated Internal Medicine Patient Learning Experience, fmCASES - Family Medicine Computer-Assisted Simulations for Educating Students, and WISE-MD – the Web Initiative for Surgical Education Modules.
We invite you to explore the new home for MedU virtual patient cases. We have many additions planned for this website and hope you visit often to experience the improvements as they evolve. We thank you in advance for your patience until the MedU site is completed, as you can expect to experience breaks and changes along the way!
During the development stages, we request you continue to access the virtual patient cases, as you always have, via the individual websites:
- CLIPP is available now at http://www.clippcases.org.
- SIMPLE is in pilot testing now and moves to a subscription model in July 2009. It is available at http://www.simplecases.org.
- fmCASES will be in pilot testing beginning July 1, 2009 and is available at http://www.fmcases.org.
