In PBHL-E645, students utilize a portion of the Open Learning initiative’s “Health Information and Technology Foundations,” a completely free resource. Students review basic systems in health care, such as electronic health record systems, because in this course they will examine how to interconnect these systems together. To avoid the need for pre-requisites (which can be costly), students review a few modules from an OER. They are then prepared to discuss how these systems can become interoperable to support population health challenges. The OER really helps set a level playing eld for all students as it is new material to some, and review for others. Students consistently report the OER is useful to them in this course.Item Leslie Ashburn-Nardo: 2020 Open Education Award Finalist(2020) IUPUI University LibraryHaving taught an undergraduate course that is required of majors, and recognizing the burdens that textbook costs placed on students.
