Evaluation of the effectiveness of any faculty development program (FDP) is crucial to provide assessment of existing programs and to yield valid recommendations for designing future programs that better address the needs of individual faculty members and the sponsoring institutions. The author chose the validated Kirkpatrick's model with four levels of program outcomes (satisfaction data, learning data, performing data, and career change) to evaluate the effectiveness of an FDP in emergency medicine. Assessment of the effectiveness of this FDP can be performed by sponsoring organizations or by independent evaluators experienced in the field for better objectivity.

Designing Health Recommender Systems to Promote Health Equity: A Socioecological Perspective.

J Med Internet Res

January 2025

Department High-Tech Business and Entrepreneurship Section, Industrial Engineering and Business Information Systems, University of Twente, Enschede, Overijssel, Netherlands.

Health recommender systems (HRS) have the capability to improve human-centered care and prevention by personalizing content, such as health interventions or health information. HRS, an emerging and developing field, can play a unique role in the digital health field as they can offer relevant recommendations, not only based on what users themselves prefer and may be receptive to, but also using data about wider spheres of influence over human behavior, including peers, families, communities, and societies. We identify and discuss how HRS could play a unique role in decreasing health inequities.
