  • Infusing Social Learning Theory into Online Education Scottsdale/Phoenix, AZ; Jacksonville, FL; Rochester, MN

    Medical education and continuous professional development (CPD) are effective when it demonstrates translation of learning to clinical practice. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (COVID-19) pandemic has changed the landscape of CPD as in-person meetings and the associated social networking that occurs through these interactions has now largely disappeared. Limited data exists to guide the integration of social learning into online education; this study seeks to increase understanding of the impact of social learning on online education. The theory of planned behavior (TPB) will be used as a framework to evaluate impact.
