Interprofessional Healthcare Informatics is a graduate–level, hands–on interactive exploration of real informatics tools and techniques offered by the University of Minnesota and the University of Minnesota’s National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education. We will be incorporating technology–enabled educational innovations to bring the subject matter to life. Over the 10 modules, we will create a vital online learning community and a working healthcare informatics network. We will explore perspectives of clinicians like dentists, physical therapists, nurses, and physicians in all sorts of practice settings worldwide. Emerging technologies, telehealth, gaming, simulations, and eScience are just some of the topics that we will consider. Throughout the course, we’ll focus on creativity, controversy, and collaboration – as we collectively imagine and create the future within the rapidly evolving healthcare informatics milieu. All healthcare professionals and IT geeks are welcome!

Pleasant voice, clear material….but more basic than I expected. Excellent introduction to Informatics but I have encountered a lot of the material in professional work and reading.

I felt this course was well developed. It certainly captured some of the growing areas of informatics throughout healthcare. I would have liked to have seen a broader scale of examples such as how informatics is impacted other avenues of healthcare such as in clinics, pharmacies, etc. There are several links in this course which are broken, so I was not able to do the additional reading on the sites I was being directed to. Overall, I felt the information discussed was direct and to the point and all of those who presented the material was helpful and knowledgeable.

It is a pretty interesting course

Fun, easy, great pace about 3 videos per week. This course is instructive and understandable. It is not about gene sequencing and statistical modelling. I recommend this to all healthcare professionals.

No podemos abstraernos de la situacion actual: aunque muchos presentan reticencias al “Big Data”, podemos beneficiarnos de la globalizacion para facilitar y mejorar la atencion sanitaria de gran cantidad de personas, formando a los profesionales en el uso racional de las nuevas tecnologias y valiendonos de estas para mejorar la calidad de la asistencia. Con el ejemplo de una escuela de Enfermeria, este curso nos descubre los secretos de la tecnologia adaptada a la atencion sanitaria y nos abre un mundo de posibilidades para poder llegar, desde nuestros despachos, a gran parte de la poblacion que de otro modo veria muy mermadas sus oportunidades de avanzar en sus programas y carteras de servicios.

There is a lot of new things I have not learned from classroom.

This course was rather like conventional classroom teaching in video formats. There was a greater emphasis on programs and practices in the U.S.A. I personally felt the lack of a global perspective on health care informatics practices.

An insightful and challenging course. I really enjoyed it.

This course is just perfect, the layout the details, it is a well thoughout course, very easy to understand, extensive materials to look at

The primary lecturer is a little boring. She’s quite knowledgeable and presents interesting material, however, she could benefit by animating her presentation style a little bit, so it doesn’t sound like she’s just reading it out loud.
James M R –
Great course. Most of the content was relevant to my career.

Time for an update.

I’m about half way through this course. It’s a great accompaniment to the Health Informatics on FHIR (Georgia Tech). Its well presented and give a huge amount of additional reading to support the learning in each module. For me it has ‘formalised’ my on the job experience gained in the past few years.

course starts to be already outdated

Very helpful for healthcare informatics professional
Abdul–Rahman B –
A very interesting course. Obviously the faculty are well versed in the field. Would have been much nicer to have informaticists from other areas participating instead of all from the nursing field. More on data visualization would have been great!

The course really helped me in understanding the basics of health informatics and definitely adds value to my CV. The faculty is very well versed and have a good knowledge of the subject. The class of data visualization really helped in evaluating how to visualize data and present it in a good form.

Its a good overview. I am looking into health informatics for a possible masters course. I learnt a lot. I wish there were more practical examples of how informatics improves healthcare delivery

It was a great learning experience to learn Informatics at such a prestigious platform. Looking forward to do more courses from Coursera community.

With this on line education, I learned how much health information impacts consumers. Healthcare consumers actively explore health information and make decisions about their health. And they get information via a number of resources such as friends and family, printing, electronic media, health care providers, other consumers and so on.It is very important that health information should be accessible to people and medical staff directly related to patients, and I think that the process of health information delivery should be appropriate to the degree of need of acquiring personal information of medical consumers. In addition, I think that the problem which critical to challenge was examined as long as consumers, providers, and information scientists who develop using health information should go through.

great course, hope one day I can study healthcare informatics in U.S.

The course was very informative to expand upon. It would have been very nice to have the presentation material made available in the form of slides or a readable PDF document…

Great informative and inspiring course. I am moved to find and utilize data for healthcare improvement.
Deepa F P –
The class was very high level and tailored for clinical staff interested in an overview of Healthcare Informatics. I was able to complete in 3 days and was surprised that a fee was charged upfront for a short and high level class. This class was marketed as 9 weeks long. Not being a clinical staff, this class was only minimally helpful. The quizzes at the end were painful as they expected 100% correct answers where particular words from the instructor had to be remembered. Compared to the other Coursera classes this was not good enough quality with a compulsory fee.

It’s a very interesting course that permits connect the begginer student to the basis of techonology.
Jonathan G –
I didn’t really feel this course was necessary. Even though gathering information about patients has a lot to do with informatics and technology these days. The first thing that is vital in a hospital is to know the status of your patient, but it still was too vague as a course.
Dr. W H –
very informative course

An excellent course with a great professor. The information was very simple to understand, and lots of interaction. Also appreciated the weekly reading articles, and the use of video’s to help see how information and technology are changing healthcare.
