The internet is a powerful tool for education and we pride ourselves at Wash U at taking full advantage of the media. Above is a screen capture of our residency website. Highlighted by our educational calendar, it serves as homebase for all of our educational endeavors. As we move forward, I'll occasionally highlight different aspects of the site. Today, is the overview.

The calendar serves as a way to know what lectures are coming. Remember, we have our didactics arranged in "modules". Currently we are in the GYN module. We will have 12 lectures on the subject followed by a quiz utlizing Turning Point technology. The quizzes are low risk but it does provide an opportunity to identify areas that residents could potentially improve on.

The lectures have hyperlinks embedded within the calendar and our lectures are also video recorded if you are unable to attend (vacation or nights rotation). The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive and even our faculty can be caught watching the videos to keep up!
