E-Learning
The development and availability of technology can revolutionize ophthalmic education, helping teachers and students connect efficiently and economically.
The ICO Task Force on Emerging Technologies for Ophthalmic Teaching & Learning (E-learning) seeks to explore new and emerging technologies for ophthalmic education and provide technical guidance for online Continuing Medical Education courses and other learning experiences.
This Task Force is led by Chair Eduardo Mayorga, MD.
