Three Focus Live sessions will be held at APA's 2007 annual meeting during
which an audience-response system (ARS) will be used to allow participants to
test their knowledge. The 90-minute sessions will cover topics from APA's
newest journal Focus: The Journal of Lifelong Learning in
Psychiatry.
During the sessions, experts will lead lively discussions based on
multiple-choice questions that the audience answers using the ARS. The ARS
instantly projects a histogram on a screen allowing each participant to
compare privately his or her responses with the responses of others in the
audience and offers a new and entertaining way to learn.
Sessions will be moderated by the editors of Focus, Deborah Hales,
M.D., and Mark Rapaport, M.D., and will be held on Monday May 21, in Room 1
A/B, Upper Level, San Diego Convention Center. The schedule, topics, and
presenters are as follows:
