Integrating Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Indigeneity into an Informatics Curriculum.

ABSTRACT

In this case study, we present the inclusion of justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, and Indigeneity (JEDI-I) principles into a graduate certificate in clinical informatics. We specifically focus on two assignments that were created for the program 1) journal club, 2) usability evaluation. We found that there was limited description of JEDI-I principles in journal club articles. New criteria for authentic resource evaluation were somewhat met in the usability evaluation of a sexual health website. Incorporating JEDI-I principles into the assignments supported fulsome conversations about end-user of technology in healthcare. Identifying examples of including JEDI-I would strengthen students' experiences in clinical informatics programs.
