The new tools: What 21st century education can teach us.

View Abstract

This article explores the shifting education paradigm that leverages videos and massive online open courses (MOOCs) and the implication of these developments for the patient-doctor encounter. This essay argues that medicine can learn from the rapid evolution of online video learning techniques to empower both patients and clinicians. Video technology is a powerful tool for the patient and physician and has the potential to significantly improve the delivery of care in an increasingly complex health care system.
