Computer-Supported Collaborative Design of Standardized Clinical Cases
ABSTRACT
Background:
This work proposes a workflow ecosystem for the collaborative design and distribution of clinical cases through online computer platforms that allow medical students to democratise their knowledge, and export created cases, generate learning repositories with standardised clinical cases and deploy them in a Learning Management System.
Objective:
To develop a workflow ecosystem based on IT platforms to enable collaborative creation, export and deployment of clinical cases.
Methods:
The ecosystem infrastructure for the computer-supported collaborative design of standardized clinical cases consists of three platforms: i) Mosaico, a platform used in computer-supported collaborative design of clinical cases; ii) Clavy, a tool for the flexible management of learning object repositories, which is used to orchestrate the transformation and processing of these clinical cases; and iii) Moodle, a Learning Management System (LMS) that is addressed to publishing the processed clinical cases and delivering their course deployment stages in IMS CP/SCORM format.
Results:
The main result demonstrates the feasibility of automating the collaborative creation, export and LMS deployment stages, allowing the generation of IMS Content Packages associated with Mosaico’s original clinical cases that can be deployed in conventional third-party LMSs.
Conclusions:
In this article, we have proposed, implemented and demonstrated the feasibility of developing a standards-based workflow that interoperates multiple platforms with heterogeneous technologies to create, transform and deploy clinical cases online. This achieves the objective of transforming the created cases into a platform for online deployment in a learning management system.
