Abstract:
In this research, by developing a learning support system for medical services, we will establish an approach that supports medical profession novices to improve proficiency understanding patient-centered medical services. Using an ontology in this paper, as a first step of the project, we organized a learning model which promotes reflective learning of the case-method for medical service education. As an implementation of the learning model, we established a learning environment that support learners to reflect on their thinking process in their experiences by a learning strategy which consists of three case-writing phases: the description phase, the cognitive conflict phase, and the knowledge building phase.
