    Recent studies have shown that more than 50% of physician time is spent on “desktop medicine” – the practice of medicine that requires the use of computers and other technology. Providers are trained in other medical practices through elaborate course work, but don’t get enough training and follow-up training on the desktop medicine practices such as efficient use of an electronic health record (EHR) system. By putting in practice theories from learning sciences, human-computer interaction and evaluation in an undergraduate health information management (HIM) course, we developed a module called Student Team Learning Monitor (STLM) in an open-source EHR.
