This practical guide is the first designed specifically to support those planning, conducting and disseminating primary care educational research. While research informs clinical practice, organisation of primary care services and teaching the discipline, educational practices and modes of delivery are rapidly changing, particularly in response to new information technologies. Primary care practitioners must be engaged in life-long learning and keep abreast of developments in many arenas and educational research into how to address this has thus become of paramount importance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey Features: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe first 'how-to' guide to designing, conducting and disseminating primary care educational research \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eFocus on inter-professional education, co-design and participatory research approaches, in line with current primary care models of care involving inter-disciplinary teams \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eWide in scope, exploring the current research environment in the contexts of undergraduate teaching, postgraduate training, continuing professional development, and patient education, for academics and educationalists at all levels \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eStep-by-step introduction to the processes of literature review (establishing the existing knowledge base), choosing a topic, research questions and methodology, conducting research and disseminating results\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eSupported by the WONCA Working Parties on Research and Education\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will encourage and upskill academics at universities and institutions teaching primary care in both undergraduate and postgraduate settings, providing support and guidance on how to conduct their own research and evaluate their own programmes, and will help to grow academic research in this discipline in high and, importantly, also low- and middle-income countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMehmet Akman is general practitioner and professor working in the field of primary care.

Educational research can also serve to build the research skills of early career academics, who may have been employed to teach, but who have few research skills, enabling clinical teachers to upskill in research methodology, and be co-authors of peer-reviewed publications. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 9.2 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 14, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46590063018181,"sku":"9780367627041","price":62.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/iNHj8gsyqB9780367627041.webp?v=1784978292","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/how-to-do-primary-care-educational-research-a-practical-guide-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
