Radiography user experience : a fresh perspective through the eyes of the facilitators
Teaching communication in Radiography presents unique challenges, requiring a focus on various forms of communication for different patient categories and their specific needs. However, communication education should not be confined to healthcare professional and patient relationship, but should encompass the development of scientific writing skills. Typically, radiography research trends tend to concentrate of the patient view point and neglect user experience
This presentation sheds light on a frequently disregarded perspective on the role of the facilitators and underscores the importance of collaboration and co-creation. It also covers the diverse aspects of the experiences of radiography facilitator and information specialist.
Further delves into a novel approach to teaching and learning that encourages students to actively seek information rather than passively receive it. This presentation contributes to a comprehensive understanding of the broader user experience, a fresh perspective that is opening doors for future study.
