Formative evaluation to guide early deployment of an online content management tool for medical curriculum.
KM is a Web-accessible, comprehensive database that organizes course materials (at the level of full lectures, not just outlines or syllabi) from the Vanderbilt School of Medicine curriculum. KM uses natural language processing techniques to analyze educational documents for biomedical concepts. Lecture handouts and Microsoft PowerPoint presentations are indexed and available online for students, faculty and administrators to search for individual or interrelated concepts across the medical school curriculum.
