About Us

pedi.edtech was a faculty development program about technology applications for education in the UTMB Department of Pediatrics. It was funded by a HRSA grant between 2013-2017. The information, tips and instructional modules are still available to you in these pages and you may contact Mary Jo Urbani if you need any assistance using educational technology.

The focus is on four (4) areas: 1. instructional technology to help faculty develop new skills and best practices in a variety of areas for instructional technology, 2. searching and information management to help our faculty sharpen their skills for searching and managing information, 3. Teaching about the EHR to help our faculty improve skills for teaching learners about the EHR, for teaching learners with the EHR and using the EHR as a research tool and 4. Technology for personal efficiency to help our faculty identify their personal needs and learn new tools to add efficiency to their work as academicians and clinical educators.

The pedi.edtech team is available to help through web-based tutorials, personal consultations, workshops and presentations.
