Abstract

V originále

Lifelong learning of physicians in the Czech Republic is organized by professional medical associations, often with some external support. Despite the delayed onset of technology-enhanced learning, there have been several e-learning projects and online platforms for case-based learning launched recently. “Renal carcinoma and virtual patients” (ca-ledviny.cz) is a new project aimed at scenario-based learning with all cases associated with this type of kidney cancer. Although the target group involves mainly oncologists and urologists, this educational platform has the potential to become an interesting learning resource for specialists in other medical disciplines as well. The workshop participants will receive information about the project and will hear about the authoring process behind linear and interactive virtual patients. One of the on-line cases will be gone through while being facilitated by an invited content expert. A standardized evaluation tool will be then used to gather data from participants about their experience.
