The Social MEDia Course

Link: 
http://thecourse.webicina.com/

Social media is changing how medicine is practiced and healthcare is delivered. Patients, doctors, communication or even time management, everything is changing, except one thing: medical education.

That is why I launched a course at the University of Debrecen, Medical and Health Science Center in 2008 in order to help medical and public health students learn more about social media. Now, after several semesters, the course developed a lot based on the feedback hundreds of students gave through online questionnaires and I still teach students about the basics of social media from medical blogging, Twitter, Facebook to searching properly and many other topics.
