TL;DR
LiftUpp is an innovative e-infrastructure system used in UK dental and other health schools that collects and analyzes workplace-based data to enhance competence development, real-time feedback, and curriculum integration.
Contribution
This paper introduces LiftUpp, a novel system that integrates data collection, visualization, and assessment to support competence development in health education.
Findings
LiftUpp is used in 70% of UK dental schools.
The system enables real-time feedback and curriculum integration.
It supports development of learners' competence in situated learning environments.
Abstract
Various motivations exist to move away from the simple assessment of knowledge towards the more complex assessment and development of competence. However, to accommodate such a change, high demands are put on the supporting e-infrastructure in terms of intelligently collecting and analysing data. In this paper, we discuss these challenges and how they are being addressed by LiftUpp, a system that is now used in 70% of UK dental schools, and is finding wider applications in physiotherapy, medicine and veterinary science. We describe how data is collected for workplace-based development in dentistry using a dedicated iPad app, which enables an integrated approach to linking and assessing work flows, skills and learning outcomes. Furthermore, we detail how the various forms of collected data can be fused, visualized and integrated with conventional forms of assessment. This enables…
