Pilot test the novel educational patient-directed intervention to demonstrate the feasibility
of the novel educational approaches developed in improving patient's willingness to achieve
remission or low disease activity in RA. Upon agreement to participate, the patient

credits for completing the activity.

The investigators will recruit participants from a patient registry (1:1 intervention:
control) that meet the eligibility criteria. The recruited patients will complete the
educational intervention (if randomized to the intervention arm) and the study outcomes will
be collected immediately after the intervention and also after the patients most proximate
