Texas Tech El Paso Virtual Campus

描述（由申请人提供）： 该项目的目的是创建德克萨斯理工大学埃尔帕索虚拟校园，将教师的资源与学生和居民联系起来，并将德克萨斯理工大学埃尔帕索医疗中心的资源与患者和社区联系起来。从内部的角度来看，该项目将使电子资源更容易提供给教师，工作人员，居民和医学生之间的主要设施和12个地理位置偏远的临床站点分裂。它将消除教师向其他教师，居民和学生提供课程材料的障碍，同时提供更好地访问健康科学图书馆，国家医学图书馆和美国医学协会等的数字材料。 有关利用得克萨斯理工大学医疗中心提供的医疗保健服务的信息将随时以英语和西班牙语提供给外部社区。此外，内部用英语和西班牙语制作的病人教育材料将被添加到德克萨斯理工大学的网站上。这些内部材料与消费者健康网站（包括MEDLINEplus、Healthfinder、NOAH等）的链接，关于利用得克萨斯理工大学医疗服务的信息将被整合到虚拟校园，以创建一个消费者健康网站，边境消费者健康信息项目（BCHIP）。将在社区推广BCHIP，并将作为优质医疗保健和健康信息的双语社区资源。病人教育站将建立在得克萨斯理工大学埃尔帕索最繁忙的诊所，以促进BCHIP和图书馆员将通过诊所轮换，以帮助病人检索健康信息。 焦点小组和调查工具将确定材料添加到得克萨斯理工大学埃尔帕索虚拟校园和材料将被添加的顺序。一旦启动，将收集使用数据，以跟踪和衡量虚拟园区组件使用模式的变化。随着项目的进展，将对用户进行关于虚拟校园及其用处的调查。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this project is to create the Texas Tech El Paso Virtual Campus, linking resources from faculty to students and residents as well as linking resources from the Texas Tech Medical Center at El Paso to patients and the community. From an internal perspective, this project will make electronic resources more readily available to faculty, staff, residents and medical students split between a primary facility and twelve geographically remote clinical sites. It will remove obstacles to faculty making curricular materials available to other faculty, residents and students, while providing better access to digital materials from the Library of the Health Sciences, the National Library of Medicine and the American Medical Association among others. Information about utilizing health care services provided through Texas Tech Medical Center would be readily accessible to the external community in English and in Spanish. In addition, patient education materials, produced in-house in English and Spanish, would be added to the Texas Tech web site. These in-house materials with links to consumer health sites including MEDLINEplus, Healthfinder, NOAH, etc., and information on utilizing Texas Tech medical services would be integrated into the Virtual Campus to create a consumer health web site, the Border Consumer Health Information Project (BCHIP). The BCHIP would be promoted in the community and would serve as a bilingual community resource for quality health care and wellness information. Patient Education Stations would be established at Texas Tech El Paso's busiest clinics to promote the BCHIP and librarians would rotate through the clinics to assist patients in retrieving health information. Focus groups and survey instruments will determine materials to be added to the Texas Tech El Paso Virtual Campus and the order in which material will be added. Use data will be collected to track and measure changing patterns of use for components of the Virtual Campus once the it is launched. As the project progresses, users will be surveyed about the Virtual Campus and its usefulness.
