Trends in Elearning for Emergency Responders
Online education is the most dynamic and fastest growing component of emergency responder education. Education programs are migrating from the desktop computer to iPods, mP3 players, smartphones and PDAs as m-learning programs, and 3-D virtual simulations are being used for training and evaluation. This session covers emerging trends in online education for emergency responders and discusses how to evaluate tools and technologies for your organization.
Understand and Utilizing Social Networking for Personnel Communication and Education
Late in 2008 three social networking sites were introduced for EMTs. Powered by the Ning platform these sites intend to duplicate the wildly successful Facebook (120 million users) by narrowing the focus of the social network to EMS professionals. Content and interaction on web based social networks is user driven. Users are invited and encouraged to make friends, upload images and photos, start and contribute to groups, answer forum questions, and contribute blog content. The purposes of social networking sites include recreating the atmosphere of an industry conference and building loyalty to a brand.
This conference presentation will describe the development and use of social networks. It will also specifically address strategies managers and educators can apply to build groups, deliver education, and increase participation by the specific cohorts that they are organizing and teaching. We will also cover the importance of leading, monitoring, and participating in the online conversation about your service or organization. EMS providers and customers are talking about you online, regardless of your participation or permission.
