Abstract(s)
In recent years a rapid increase in the use of technology in education was witnessed, particularly concerning e-learning platforms, social networks and web-quizzes. These tools have been increasingly adopted by many health related educational institutions. Because of their ease of use and quick dissemination, they offer the opportunity of information sharing and ease of collaboration for "anytime, anywhere" learning experiences (mobile learning). Within the Facilitation of Learning working group of European Network of Physiotherapy in Higher Education (ENPHE), we build a searchable database of learning applications, based on technical criteria and learning outcomes taxonomy, to be used in physiotherapy education. web based database of learning applications (Learning @pps) open to the physiotherapy educator’s community was created. The users can contribute, search and comment on the repository using the classification criteria created by the working group. Building and supporting a learning application database could provide to the physiotherapy educators a repository of a very relevant list of tools and software, that can be used to support competence building in physiotherapy students The use of such technologies could encourage learners' deeper engagement with learning contents towards building competences within the physiotherapy profile.
