The University of Global Health Equity<\/a> (UGHE) and ScholarRx<\/a> today announced a collaboration in support of UGHE’s new health sciences education program. ScholarRx will provide its groundbreaking ScholarRx Curriculum Bricks<\/a> to the students and faculty of UGHE to further their unique educational mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“As an advisor to both UGHE and ScholarRx, I am excited about the educational opportunity created by their collaboration,” said Dr. Charles Prober, Founding Executive Director, Stanford Center for Health Education. “The use of high quality, consistently produced and learner-accessible, evidenced-based, foundational material\u2014complemented by richly interactive teaching sessions by on-site faculty\u2014will be pedagogically effective and scalable to other institutions in Africa.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With seed funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Cummings Foundation, UGHE began as a response to the health inequities that exist within health systems \u2013 particularly in Africa \u2013 and is contributing to the training of a new generation of global health leaders to deliver high-quality health care in some of the world’s most remote and resource-poor settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it isn’t the only goal. Central to the curriculum for all UGHE students is its flagship master’s program. The Master of Science in Global Health Delivery<\/a> (MGHD) focuses on leadership and management training, as well as how health delivery is shaped by societal and environmental forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are thrilled to partner with ScholarRx to deliver an integrated basic sciences experience that incorporates cutting-edge learning science and technology,” said the University of Global Health Equity’s dean, Professor Abebe Bekele. “With ScholarRx’s innovative platforms, students will have access to a robust and interactive flipped classroom experience and curriculum aimed at maximizing their potential in the classroom and their future impact as health professionals.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ScholarRx is a 15-year-old, mission-driven organization currently serving over 150,000 medical students and physician learners annually. ScholarRx has developed a revolutionary componentized, multi-competency curricular platform that will empower faculty and medical schools to rapidly develop high-quality education experiences, even in resource-constrained environments. Dr. Tao Le, founder and CEO of ScholarRx, comments, “Through the ScholarRx Bricks curriculum initiative, we hope to address deep education needs at a global, societal level and help define consensus curriculum elements that will be accessible to medical schools anywhere.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By combining the Rx Bricks with ScholarRx’s USMLE-Rx digital learning platform, the UGHE will provide their students and faculty with a comprehensive repository of high-quality educational materials to support individualized learning pathways with formative assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
