Description
For more than two years, members of The International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE) and the co-directors of the Health Education Assets Library (HEAL CENTRAL) have been working together to further the development of HEAL CENTRAL. HEAL CENTRAL is a digital repository that allows medical educators to discover, download, and re-use over 22,000 medical education resources. Through generous funding by IAMSE, HEAL CENTRAL is becoming a dynamic, user-centered digital environment to allow medical educators to share and discuss teaching resources and methods. This is being accomplished through the incorporation of key characteristics of Web 2.0 technologies into HEAL CENTRAL including user reviews of resources and user tagging (searchable keywords) of resources.
