Best practice is -
Digitalisation is -
Digital transformation is -

5. ‘Best practice’ is - 'A technique or methodology
that, through experience and research, has proven
to reliably lead to a desired result'.

8. Three takeaways and Three implementation tips

9. First takeaway - Digital content (for Teaching
and Scholarship)
Digital content (created and curated), the web,
software (apps) and mobile devices enable educators
to connect with learners with much less resource
constraints than earlier generations, much faster, and
easier. Digital content includes digital artefacts and
evidence of our scholarly efforts. Our scholarly
output is visible, accessible, and assessable - both
quantity and quality.
Goh, P.S. eLearning or Technology enhanced learning in medical education - Hope, not Hype.
Med Teach. 2016 Sep; 38(9): 957-958, Epub 2016 Mar 16
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26982639

10. Sustaining implementation tip - Focus on curating and
creating reusable, granular and modular digital
content accessible and assessable on online digital
repositories - (some open access, some restricted
access digital content following appropriate and
accepted professional usage guidelines, including
those for professional use, consent, privacy, and
attribution/intellectual property). This includes digital
artefacts and examples of our scholarly output, in
digital portfolios.

11. Second takeaway - Digital platforms (for
Teaching and Scholarship)
Technology/Digitalisation enables rapid content curation,
and much easier content creation, and dissemination, aided
by low cost and open access platforms and tools which
promote access, and visibility of our educational and
training efforts. This includes digitalisation of the scholarly
process. Indicators and metrics, visibility and access to
intermediate and final outcomes of our scholarly activities
to engage with, evaluate and assess.

12. Sustaining implementation tip - Use open access
and usable/easy to use low cost technology tools
and platforms. Know what tech is available to
faculty and students. Which can be used to
support our teaching, and scholarly efforts.

med-ed-costs-and-value-add-82738401

13. Third takeaway - Digital Processes (for Teaching
and Scholarship)
Rapid cycle, by design, iterative, cumulative
educational and scholarly efforts assisted and
augmented by technology promotes academic discourse
and peer critique and feedback, building and adding
to communities of practice as educators, and scholars.
Technology enhances and offers the potential to
transform educational scholarship.

education-145349537

14. Sustaining implementation tip - What before Why and How.
Know purpose/outcomes, pedagogy, content and technology.
Practices founded on empirical observation, experience,
feedback, data, evidence, evaluation (of outcomes and
impact) and scholarship. Digital artefacts and examples of
our scholarly output within digital portfolios can be
systematically, progressively and cumulatively assembled,
following accepted traditional and newer criteria
(quantitative and qualitative) for assessing and evaluating
academic output, and impact, producing a coherent narrative
and portfolio of academic work. Digitalisation and
technology facilitates and potentially transforms the
process, outputs and outcomes of our academic work.
