Evidence-based practice is a pillar of the program, and Web 2.0 certainly changes things, or at least our perception of things (I wonder if these are really the same or different?). I will send a few colleagues to see this for their thoughts.<BR/><BR/>Additionally, I am beginning my own doctoral studies next month toward a PhD in E-Research and Technology Enhanced Learning. The issues of knowledge and authority and power relationships have floated around higher education and "academic" knowledge for some time, and Web 2.0 really throws that into the air. <BR/><BR/>I am very interesting in this topic, and am wondering who, if anybody, is exploring it more fully. Want to consider a research project in this area???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-652950132925204088.post-59058943708838256382009-01-15T16:37:00.000+11:002009-01-15T16:37:00.000+11:00@ Anne Mare - great post - loving this conversatio...@ Anne Mare - great post - loving this conversation.<BR/><BR/>@Helen I see no reason why EBM & Web 2.0 cannot compliment each other. It's the attitudes of a lot of academics that stand as barriers ie the 'preciousness' about research.Sarah Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00480597227427423793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-652950132925204088.post-53014713746835380102009-01-14T16:41:00.000+11:002009-01-14T16:41:00.000+11:00Hi SarahExcellent thoughts.

And knowledge is power - authoratative knowledge as well as experiential knowledge. I think it depends a bit on the context - if I want some basic health advice I will definatly google my symptoms and try to work out what is wrong with me and how to fix it. It is very thought provoking - what is the future of authoritative knowledge as EBM increases? Good questions.<BR/>HelenHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05689137180225074378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-652950132925204088.post-35802598244971643682009-01-14T09:45:00.000+11:002009-01-14T09:45:00.000+11:00Hi Sarah,Think you have seen my reply already:)htt...Hi Sarah,<BR/>Think you have seen my reply already:)<BR/>http://wishfulthinkinginmedicaleducation.blogspot.com/2009/01/accessing-evidence-based-medicine.html<BR/>AMAnne Marie Cunninghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05289974924032448531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-652950132925204088.post-47247358396096447822009-01-13T22:19:00.000+11:002009-01-13T22:19:00.000+11:00Couldn't agree more.

Also for lots of cross fertilisations (pardon the reproductive pun) between professions (I am an OT) of ideas and thought processes. The honesty, information sharing and self reflection needed (IMO) to make a great blog can be challenging to many. We must develop ways to overcome this and weave the "formal" evidence into the powerful professional reasoning of experience and anecdote.Buckeyebrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13324831322572054447noreply@blogger.com
