Abstract

Curriculum and Pedagogy Specialist Studies in Education QR codes skills development clinical skills
Worldwide, there has been a rapid increase in both the use of mobile technologies as a conduit for student learning and the use of wearable cameras to record sporting and recreational activities. The Expert in My Pocket project (EiMP) has combined these two technologies to produce a repository of freely available short videos and supporting materials to enhance student development of psychomotor clinical skills. These are presented from a first person point of view (1PPOV) with expert health professionals 'thinking aloud' as they demonstrate selected skills. (expertinmypocket.com.au)Research indicates that students and educators overwhelmingly support the concept of EiMP videos and more importantly value the 1PPOV as an authentic view (Lynch, 2010). The use of EiMP videos when coupled with a simulated clinical environment and reflection on practice can support the development of clinical skills competence and confidence (Lynch et al, 2012). Additionally it has been demonstrated that students who have access to videos following initial clinical skill training maintain higher levels of competence (Hansen et al 2012) and value the use of multimedia and the ability to download videos on demand (Everett 2012). By merging technology and connection-making in learning activities, students are able to form the necessary connections between specialised information available in data bases and personal knowledge (Duke et al 2013).The poster will illustrate the equipment and techniques used by the "Expert in my Pocket" project team to produce these videos and the optional use of QR codes of the videos placed on equipment to assist with "just in time" learning. The goal is to inspire attendees who might benefit from using 1PPOV videos in their teaching
