Evaluation Methods in Informatics

This is a collection of short descriptions of evaluation methods used in informatics research.

Ethnography

Cognitive_ethnography is one of the tools which could be used to study effective manners for instruction of BMI in professional schools. A study to delineate the present state of informatics curricula at healthcare professional schools, the present status of BMI knowledge held by students, at the beginning and completion of their healthcare professional education, and a systematic analysis of what should be included in a standardized, structured BMI curriculum to meet the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) standards would benefit from the use of cognitive ethnography.
