How Are Lecturio's Concept Pages Created?
Scope and Goals of Lecturio's Concept Pages
Who are Concept Pages made for? How can Concept Pages be used?
A Concept Page is a comprehensive, evidence-based study resource that holistically teaches students and professionals medical topics. Examples include atherosclerosis, the citric acid cycle, and anatomy and physiology of the liver. Each page can be used as an adjunct to the medical school curriculum, as well as for the USMLE® and other milestone exams. Additionally, the pages may be used as a resource for clinical experiences, rotations, and clerkships. Lecturio strives to cover all high-yield facts about each topic concisely and efficiently.
Concept Pages are not just collections of facts. High-quality medical illustrations, images, tables, and mnemonics are used to support the learning process. Diagnostic algorithms and animations help the reader to connect theoretical knowledge with real-life clinical practice. Video lectures by award-winning educators are directly linked on the pages and enable the reader to dive more deeply into the topics. After each study session, the reader can apply the learned material with matched clinical case “Qbank” questions. All the elements allow the reader to more easily grasp new topics, fill knowledge gaps, and reinforce the understanding of challenging subjects.
Lecturio’s criteria for top-quality content:
- Accuracy: Ensure information is factually correct and up-to-date.
- Relevance/scope: Stay concise while comprehensively covering everything the reader needs to know for milestone exams.
- Didactics: Create a holistic, highly efficient learning experience by connecting the information with charts, images, video lectures, and other types of media.
