Course content and
structure |
This course introduces students to a series of process and
performance management innovations, and their use in practice. In
addition, the course also addresses issues of project management in
this respect. Aside from the introductory and closing/summary
weeks, each of the 8 weeks will be based around one such
innovation, which will be addressed from the perspective of
development/use, design/technique, and
implementation/examination.
|
Teaching methods |
This course will be comprised of
three components: technical lectures, hands-on tutorials, and
analysis and reflection workshops. Technical lectures will
introduce students to the core subjects of the course, demonstrate
the design and use of process and performance management
innovations, and illustrate their importance in the wide healthcare
environment. Hands-on tutorials will give students the opportunity
to gain the skills with these innovations necessary to use them
effectively in a healthcare environment. Analysis and reflection
seminars will be case based and are intended to place these
innovations in the context of healthcare practice, to allow
students to investigate the ways that these innovations affect
professional and organization behavior, and to allow them to better
understand their practical challenges and limitations. |
