ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To examine the impact of the expansion of access to the UWI Diploma in the Management of HIV Infection by converting it from fully in-person to a blended model. DESIGN ANDMETHODS:
A proposal to convert the Diploma at the St. Augustine Campus to a blended model was developed for the class of 2014/15. Collaborative approaches were used to design and develop interactive materials in The UWIs Learning Management System (LMS) myeLearning and 2 courses were delivered online to the 2013-2014 cohort. Post-delivery, an assessment was conducted using online surveys and virtual debrief discussions with students and faculty to assess effectiveness of the content design.RESULTS:
Students felt that course content was clear, appropriate, interesting, and applicable to their work. They reported a preference for recorded lectures and relevant videos, anytime/anywhere access and interactions with instructors and peers. Faculty enjoyed building new skills and teaching online. Areas for improvement included reducing workload, better time estimations for activities and grading guidelines.CONCLUSIONS:
The online development and delivery of the two courses were implemented. This will increase access to the programme by health care professionals anytime and anywhere.
