The NPTE and PhysioU education 2018 update!

“If we focus on building clinicians, passing the boards will come naturally!”

– Dr. Michael Wong, Associate Professor, Teaching and Learning Fellow,Azusa Pacific University Doctor of Physical Therapy Program

As a team of educators, we have been watching carefully and thinking of how to build tools that create critically thinking clinicians… ready for the clinic, yet who are able to pass their board exams at a high rate.

With the new NPTE Test Content effective January 2018, PhysioU continues to evolve app and app content development to set your students up for success.

We have built our apps around the content areas that have the highest number of questions on the NPTE, and we have specifically built apps that develop reasoning which contextualizes information based on common clinical patterns. These apps augment the content delivered in the classroom to enhance deep learning.

Our students have developed a reputation for being very well prepared for the clinic and have had a 100% first time pass rate for the NPTE for our class of 2016 and 2017 (This will be updated as students continue to take the board exams…).

Take your program to the next level with the learning tools of the future!

What does it mean to be a Guideline Based Clinical Reasoning app?

In 1910 Villemard, a French artist, drew a picture that was a vision for education for “The Year 2000”. We were supposed to be able to pump knowledge into the young ready minds of our students…

Ok… so we are a little behind schedule… but building apps to help develop clinical reasoning might be the next best thing!

When we first set out to build the Clinical Pattern Recognition series of apps, we decided that just filming a massive list of special tests and techniques was not enough. These archives of techniques and tests did solve the problem of developing clinical reasoning or “flow” as one of our users so eloquently described. We wanted to develop a tool, that used guideline based language. We wanted to film techniques instead of read about them. We wanted to link pain patterns, to possible conditions and allow clinicians and students to see how a relevant examination should be linked to matching interventions and exercises.

We also dreamed of developing a tool that could be updated easily as the evidence changed or guidelines were revised.

To be a guideline based tool, means we can bring the world together, practicing using the best evidence. Imagine the whole world using similar rehabilitation concepts and language, allowing research to be done in a more homogenous and generalizable way! The future is here…and we are happy to lead the way!
