This exploratory, Proof of Concept study, proposed an educational intervention using telehealth technologies. This innovative approach to teaching health assessment remotely was compared to the current approach that includes lecture and hands-on demostration with students practicing on one another.

The educational intervention combined the use of best pedagogical practices and state-of-the-art SMART classroom technology to examine the feasibility, cost effectiveness and student/provider satisfaction with this distance learning method.
