文章閱讀
這篇閱讀沒有前幾篇那么吃力,但是在字里行間還是有很多“陷阱”,有很多乍看覺得理解的句子,結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)都理解得不透徹,看了群里面小伙伴的討論,我才有了更進(jìn)一步的認(rèn)識(shí)。
就如群里面的lucas所說,這篇文章著重探討的是高新技術(shù)對(duì)于醫(yī)療行業(yè)的影響。而文末的一句,digital health care will be the patients who receive better treatment,and those who avoid becoming patients at all,則表明了作者對(duì)于高新技術(shù)在醫(yī)療方面應(yīng)用的美好期待。
毫無疑問,身體是我們最關(guān)心的事物了,特別是在生病的時(shí)候,可是由于醫(yī)療行業(yè)的進(jìn)入壁壘較大,而且有些過程并不完全公開透明。所以說消費(fèi)者可謂是弱勢(shì)狀態(tài),而高新技術(shù)的運(yùn)用的確可以肩負(fù)起改變這一困境的使命。首先,當(dāng)人們能夠隨時(shí)了解自己的身體狀況的時(shí)候,人們可以提前重視,做出改變的計(jì)劃,避免生病;其次,當(dāng)人們不得已生病住醫(yī)院的時(shí)候,也不用擔(dān)心有些醫(yī)院為了牟取藥品的利潤而開許多本沒有必要開的藥。
個(gè)人反思
對(duì)比了一下Annie老師的思維導(dǎo)圖,發(fā)現(xiàn)老師的結(jié)構(gòu)和上篇文章的一樣,是抓住主要涉及的利益方,這樣比較簡潔明晰,而且也涵蓋了有用的細(xì)節(jié)。而我則是大致跟著段落順序,做出的歸納,細(xì)節(jié)較少,所以這是需要改進(jìn)的地方。抓住主要的stakeholders也是一個(gè)需要訓(xùn)練的技巧。
