Online Learning

I have come across two websites recently, each with a catalog of learning modules that have been prepared with multidisciplinary input. The first is the Online Cancer Education Forum, designed to provide continuing education for cancer professionals practicing in different countries. Readers of the European Journal of Cancer Care are first informed of a new topic by way of an abstract in the print version of the journal. The abstract provides an overview of the topic and a link to the body of the module. The module downloads easily and contains:
An introduction to the topic
Learning objectives
Background information
Learning activities& thinking points
Links to resources required to complete the activities
View current topics
The second is the Current Learning in Palliative Care site. Tutorials are designed to be completed within 15 minutes.
