Learning in the Digital Age: E-Learning in Cardiology Specialization Training

Abstract

Digital cardiologists are cardiologists who can use digital media in clinical practice, education, and interaction with patients. Although digital tools are supportive of education, they cannot replace human thoughts and feelings. On the other hand, it is useful to arrange the core training program of cardiology in a way to train digital cardiologists of the future. Educators lacking this opportunity during their training should adapt quickly to e-learning. Blended use of e-learning and face-to-face learning seems to be the most effective way. in this way, the trainer will transfer his experiences on one hand and on the other hand, he will enable the learner to acquire lifelong learning habit by supporting the self-learning activity with the e-learning opportunities.
