Figure 1 ASIC Simplified- the ASIC [Adaptation, Standardisation, Integration, and Compliance] framework linked to learning domains [Knowledge, Skill, Attitude] and curricular compliance [C]; the centre of integration, I, is always the context and space of learning such as the classroom, laboratory, simulation facilitates, hospital ward, the community.

Figure 2 ASIC Framework Operational Matrix. ASIC Framework Operational Matrix has specific considerations under the four tenets of ASIC. Each of the tenets has 3 questions that validate it [eg A1= Adaptation-related question 1; C3= Compliance-related question 3]. The user is required to confirm each consideration [Yes] or decline [No]. Each response has an attached value. Each consideration under each ASIC tenet is coded and a specific score is allocated to it. Practically, there are overall 12 considerations that serve as the overall indicators of the operational performance level of an educational innovation or technology based on the ASIC Framework. The final outcome can be presented simply as a whole number and measured as a fraction of 12, eg 10/12. Alternatively, the score can be computed as a percentage to provide a more practical proportional representation of operational performance.

Figure 3 ASIC Framework Matrix digital result interface. This serves the purpose of a dynamic interface to present the measurements of the matrix in a way that practically helps to appreciate the potential performance of the educational technology or innovations being considered.
Figure 4 ASIC Framework Matrix Worksheet. A worksheet that could help to assess, measure, and document the optimization of medical education technologies and innovations through the operationalization of the ASIC Framework. Using the prompts under each ASIC tenet, educator or institution can reflect and provide concise and concrete answer to each question/requirement.
