New Research Published: Identifying Research Priorities in Digital Education for Health Care

Posted on: April 2nd, 2025 by Charlotte Murray No Comments

Following two years of research, the TEL Research and Academic Development team led by Chris Munsch and Alison Potter, have had their research paper published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research.

Their study looked at available evidence for the effectiveness of digital education in healthcare and attempted to identify any gaps in the evidence. They undertook an extensive review of the current scientific literature, from which a final short list of 63 potential research questions was identified. They then undertook an expert consensus modified Delphi exercise with educators, academics and learners. This led to agreement on the five priority research questions for digital education in healthcare

The paper, ‘Identifying Research Priorities in Digital Education for Health Care: Umbrella Review and Modified Delphi Method Study’, now provides a comprehensive list of research questions, identifies priority areas for future research and is an important contribution to the literature on digital education.

National Breast Imaging Academy (NBIA) elearning

Posted on: March 6th, 2025 by Talisa Saini No Comments

The National Breast Imaging Academy, and NHSE TEL elearning for healthcare collaborate to offer easy to access elearning to support workforce issues threatening the delivery of breast imaging services across the country.

Rolling out over 2025, four new elearning sessions will be available on a range of topics. The first being breast care for transgender and gender-diverse people.

This new elearning session is designed to equip healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to create a safe and affirming environment for transgender and gender-diverse people. Within the session, participants learn about the importance of understanding gender identity and gender affirmation, navigating NHS gender-affirmation pathways, and the specifics of gender-affirming surgery such as mastectomy and feminising top surgery.

Healthcare professionals play a crucial role in dismantling barriers that prevent transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) individuals from accessing necessary medical care. Studies have shown that the TGD population experiences worse healthcare outcomes, including lower cancer survival rates, due to anticipated and experienced discrimination.

By educating healthcare professionals on the specific needs of transgender and gender-diverse people, the session aims to improve health outcomes and ensure that all individuals receive the high-quality care they deserve.

For more information and to access the sessions, please visit the programme page.
