Presenter
Parvati Dev, Interactive Media for Healthcare Professionals. When training healthcare professionals using interactive media and games, the goal is to delight them and engage their interest while keeping in mind the principles of adult learning. I will show examples of interactive learning applications across the healthcare spectrum and discuss what makes for learning efficacy.
