While individual online learning may be better suited for short and simple educational interventions such as knowledge acquisition, CSCL seems to allow for richer and deeper learning in complex and interprofessional educational experiences. However, strategies, resources, and faculty development required to enhance CSCL need to be addressed carefully. (Source: Journal of Continuing Education in the Health Professions)

Long‐Term Outcomes of a Remedial Education Program for Doctors With Clinical Performance Deficits
This article adds to that literature by describing a program associated with the Medical Council of New Zealand (MCNZ) and reporting outcomes for 24 consecutive doctors required to undergo remediation. MethodsOver the 18‐month period covered in this study, 24 doctors were required by the MCNZ to enter remediation after a performance assessment. The data set used in this study was drawn from these 24 consecutive cases and included the nature of concerns, severity of concerns, results of remediation and outcome of a second assessment when such an assessment was ordered. ResultsOf 24 doctors who underwent initial assessment...

Estimating Health Care Cost Savings from an Educational Intervention to Prevent Bleeding‐Related Complications: The Outcomes Impact Analysis Model
DiscussionOur economic model demonstrates that application of CME‐related learning to prevent bleeding complications may yield substantial cost savings. Model prediction of averted costs associated with CME allows estimation of the economic impact on outcomes in the absence of patient‐level outcomes data related to CME activities.

Autonomic Arousal and Learning in Web‐Based Simulation: A Feasibility Study
DiscussionIn addition to being consistent with previous engagement research, this experiment functioned as a feasibility study for measuring autonomic arousal in online CME. The current study provides a framework for future studies, which may use neurophysiology to identify the critical autonomic and engagement components associated with effective online learning.

Relationship Among Practice Change, Motivation, and Self‐Efficacy
DiscussionFurther inspection of the motivation to change construct suggests that it mediates the self‐efficacy constructs’ effect on intent. This is consistent with an earlier report on the relationship among self‐efficacy, barriers to change, and stated intent. This new finding suggests that the proximal construct motivation completely masks an important underlying causal relationship that appears to contribute to practice change following CME: self‐efficacy. A focus on the participants’ sense of self‐agency may provide a path to practice change. (Source: Journal of Continuing Education in the Health Professions)
