We are doing something a little different for this episode since this is a major milestone for NavNeuro (Episode 100!). Specifically, we are going to deliver a presentation on how digital forms of education (podcasts, webinars, and social media platforms) might be used in formal training programs in neuropsychology. During the talk, we provide 1) an introduction to the three digital education methods; 2) we give a discussion of general benefits and drawbacks of each of the methods; 3) we provide a literature review on self-reported satisfaction and objective learning outcomes; and 4) we will give some recommendations for how educators and neuropsychology trainees might implement these methods effectively.
