Questionnarie on learning openEHR

[Erik Sundvall <erik.sundvall@liu.se>]

Hi!

Did you ever think the inner workings of openEHR were a bit tricky to learn? If you can help "my" master student Dominique by answering some of the questions below, then I hope we can give an even more useful report and tool back to the openEHR community.

Don't send your questionnarie reply to the mailinglist, we don't want your answer to bias other answers. 

Send it to domsi528@student.liu.se instead...

Best regards,
Erik Sundvall

Hello!

My name is Dominique Siivonen and I am a cognitive science student doing my master thesis at the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Linköping in Sweden. The purpose of the thesis is to develop a graphical tool to visualize the structure and semantics of the openEHR reference model, to facilitate teaching and learning. The purpose of this inquiry is to get a picture of how learning of openEHR is done today and collect input for the design.

Your participation in the inquiry is very important for me because you have the knowledge about how the tutoring and learning is done today. So what you tell me will be valuable information to how I should design the graphical tool. Therefore I am very grateful for your participation and I thank you in advance.

The inquiry results will be anonymously presented. It will not be possible to see who responded what.

If you have any questions about the inquiry or regarding my master thesis, feel free to ask me using the address domsi528@student.liu.se. 

Please read all of the questions before you start answering any of them, and if your time is limited then start answering where you believe your experiences may be of most help. You can, whenever you want, quit answering, and send me the partial response. Please send your responses at the latest of February 8, 2010.

If you are interested in the end result of my master thesis (planed to be finished in June 2010), then please fill out your e-mail below and I will get in touch when the master thesis is done. Tools and materials developed during the thesis will be available under open source licenses.
