<http://www.thecollegefix.com/post/19661/>, Oct. 9, 2014:
The University of California – San Francisco will launch an online abortion
course this Monday, an Internet class being hailed as the first of its kind.
The course will delve into “clinical aspects of medication abortion,
aspiration abortion, post-abortion contraception, and pain management for
abortion,” as well as topics such as the history of abortion, “abortion
stigma,” complications and counseling, its outline states
<https://www.coursera.org/course/abortion>.
*“I think that if we can inspire even a small portion of the people who
take the course to take steps in their communities to increase access to
safe abortion and decrease stigma about abortion, then we have been totally
successful,” Dr. Jody Steinauer, associate professor of obstetrics,
gynecology and reproductive sciences at the University of California – San
Francisco*, told *The Daily Beast*, which first reported
<http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/10/06/the-internet-s-first-abortion-class.html>
on the class, noting an estimated 3,000 people have signed up so far.
The free, six-week class, titled “Abortion: Quality Care and Public Health
Implications,” is offered through the university’s partnership with
Coursera, an educational technology company that joins forces with
universities to offer a wide variety of Massive Open Online Courses. While
it is designed for “any clinician, physician, health care worker or student
who will care for women of reproductive age,” it’s open to anyone.
“Each week’s lectures will incorporate the stories of women who seek
abortion in order to better portray abortion significance and rationale,”
its outline states <https://www.coursera.org/course/abortion>. “Other
topics will include a brief history of abortion, the clinical aspects of
medication and procedural abortions in and after the first trimester, an
overview of patient-centered abortion-care, the basics of abortion
counseling, the professional obligations of health care practitioners to
ensure that women have access to safe abortion care, and the maze of
restrictions that make safe abortion care inaccessible to many women.”
The class has been hailed by left-leaning news outlets as revolutionary and
vital because, they claim, access to abortion for women is very difficult,
an allegation blamed largely on “a U.S. educational system that ignores the
frequency of abortion, producing health care providers who have no formal
training in abortion care,” as the *Beast’s *Samantha Allen put it
<http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/10/06/the-internet-s-first-abortion-class.html>
.
Her report cited a 2005 review of U.S. medical school curricula that found
“less than a third of schools include a single lecture focused on abortion
during the clinical years.”
Prolife advocates see things differently.
In response to news of the course, *Donna Harrison, executive director of
the American Association of Pro-life Obstetricians and Gynecologists*, told
<http://www.worldmag.com/2014/10/university_of_california_offers_online_abortion_class>
*WORLD* magazine that “obstetricians and gynecologists refuse to do
abortions because they choose to adhere to the Hippocratic Oath, not
because their education didn’t cover abortions.”
And *National Right To Life’s Randall O’Bannon*, its director of education
and research, stated
<http://www.nationalrighttolifenews.org/news/2014/10/ucsf-pioneers-on-line-abortion-course/#.VDYjLfldWSo>
the
reason most medical schools and med students shun learning how to perform
abortions is because they “recognize that abortion is the killing of human
beings.”
He also questioned the outcome of the course, saying it’s unclear whether
students actually expect to be able to perform an abortion after taking the
class.
“Chemical methods, some involving drugs available by mail ordered over the
internet, others using drugs developed as anti-ulcer medications … can be
used (quite dangerously) by the women themselves or by lightly trained
medical personnel,” O’Bannon states
<http://www.nationalrighttolifenews.org/news/2014/10/ucsf-pioneers-on-line-abortion-course/#.VDYjLfldWSo>
.
Students who finish the course will earn a certificate, and “AMA PRA
Category 1 CME Credits” are expected to be given to practicing physicians
and other health professionals who complete the class, its outline states.

- Many journal articles on whether and how internists in medical schools
are getting training in performing *abortion*, such as "Obstacles to the
integration of abortion into obstetrics and gynecology practice," *Perspect

- At least 6 journal articles on *second-trimester abortions*.
