摘要

目的OpenWHO是世界卫生组织于2017年推出的在线学习平台。新冠肺炎疫情导致该平台的课程数量、注册人数和覆盖范围大幅增长。该平台建立在稳定和可扩展的基础上,可以容纳大量学习者。作者的目的是确定导致这种增长的关键因素。设计/方法论/方法在这篇研究论文中,作者使用定量方法检查了OpenWHO元数据、课程结束调查和内部流程。FindingsOpenWHO元数据显示,该平台已举办了超过190门65种语言的健康课程,注册人数超过700万。自疫情爆发以来,参加课程的妇女、老年人和中等收入国家的人比以前更多。通过对平台元数据和课程制作过程的数据分析,发现几个关键因素有助于平台的发展。首先,OpenWHO有一个标准化的课程制作途径,确保效率、一致性和质量。此外,提供不同语言的课程增加了其对世界各地不同人群的影响。为此,通过翻译人员网络和自动化系统实现多语言翻译,以确保学习产品的高效翻译。最后,研究发现,通过优化课程制作中的无障碍性,促进了残疾学习者的无障碍学习。对选定课程的学习者反馈调查的数据分析表明,这些课程受到了好评,因为学习者发现完成自定进度和灵活的课程是有用的。此外,研究结果表明,首选的学习方法包括视频、可下载的文档、幻灯片、测验和学习练习。原创/价值从世界卫生组织的学习反应中吸取的经验教训将有助于研究人员为下一次卫生紧急情况做好准备,以确保每个人都能及时、公平地获得高质量的卫生知识。这项研究的发现将为该领域的教育工作者、政策制定者和研究人员提供有价值的见解,他们打算利用在线学习来优化知识获取和表现。

Observations from three years of online pandemic learning response on OpenWHO
PurposeOpenWHO is the World Health Organization's online learning platform that was launched in 2017. The COVID-19 pandemic led to massive growth in the number of courses, enrolments and reach of the platform. The platform is built on a stable and scalable basis that can host a large volume of learners. The authors aim to identify key factors that led to this growth.Design/methodology/approachIn this research paper, the authors examined OpenWHO metadata, end-of-course surveys and internal processes using a quantitative approach.FindingsOpenWHO metadata showed that the platform has hosted over 190 health courses in 65 languages and over seven million course enrolments. Since the onset of the pandemic, there have been more women, older people and people from middle income countries accessing courses than before. Following data analysis of the platform metadata and course production process, it was found that several key factors contributed to the growth of the platform. First, OpenWHO has a standardised course production pathway that ensures efficiency, consistency and quality. Further, providing courses in different languages increased its reach to a variety of populations throughout the world. For this, multi-language translation is achieved through a network of translators and an automated system to ensure the efficient translation of learning products. Lastly, it was found that access was promoted for learners with disabilities by optimising accessibility in course production. Data analysis of learner feedback surveys for selected courses showed that the courses were well received in that learners found it useful to complete courses that were self-paced and flexible. In addition, results indicated that preferred learning methods included videos, downloadable documents, slides, quizzes and learning exercises.Originality/valueLessons learnt from the WHO's learning response will help prepare researchers for the next health emergency to ensure timely, equitable access to quality health knowledge for everyone. Findings of this study will provide valuable insights for educators, policymakers and researchers in the field who intend to use online learning to optimise knowledge acquisition and performance.
