SUMMARY:Webinar | Cultivating Deep Learning Using Discussion Boards
DESCRIPTION:A frequent sentiment that is often heard from instructors of online courses is a general sense of dissatisfaction with traditional discussion board activities. Many report how students are often reluctant to engage in meaningful discourse or how interactions tend toward superficiality and sound something like\, “Hello\, Rob. I agree with your point and couldn’t have said it better myself.” This often leaves instructors feeling frustrated and tempted to abandon traditional discussion boards as a learning tool altogether or in search of alternative means by which to engage learner collaboration. \nAsynchronous discussion boards are a common tool used by instructors in online courses. These forums can provide an outlet to foster the interaction and collaboration that are sometimes lacking in an online learning environment. When students are engaged in conversations in these settings\, the asynchronous nature of discussions can provide them with time to reflect on their responses before interacting with their peers in a way that is often not feasible in a face-to-face discussion. In this way\, when it is used well\, the discussion board can offer the ideal blend of reflection and collaboration that promotes the construction of knowledge in an online learning environment.

SUMMARY:InteresTED: How your brain responds to stories\, and why they're crucial for leaders
DESCRIPTION:  \nHow do the world’s best leaders and visionaries earn trust? They don’t just present data\, they also tell great stories. In this TED Talk\, leadership consultant Karen Eber demystifies what makes for effective storytelling and explains how anyone can harness it to create empathy and inspire action.

SUMMARY:Badges? We don’t need no stinking badges…Or do we?
DESCRIPTION:We may not be Troop Beverly Hills\, but CETL badges are a great way to encourage group attendance and reward participation. A digital badge is a visual symbol that represents the development of a new skill that can be displayed\, accessed\, and verified online. Badges typically represent competencies not shown on a transcript\, including learning from professional development\, volunteer work\, and other co-curricular activities. Digital badges are becoming popular because of the benefits they provide for both workers and employers. For professionals\, badges demonstrate proof of their skills and accomplishments\, which they can display on their online professional profiles\, in their email signatures\, and on social media. \n  \nIn this session we will: \n\nDiscuss Digital Badges & Micro-Credentials\nIdentify & compare various digital badging platforms\nExplain the back-end process of attendance to awarding the badge to sharing the badge\nDescribe CETL’s Digital Badge Program\nShare examples of where one might implement digital badging

SUMMARY:IAMSE Webinar - The Off-Cycle Curriculum: Intention vs. Impact
DESCRIPTION:The current landscape of undergraduate medical education provides foundations at varying depths of knowledge that will not only be needed for board examinations but also progressively needed for the clinical years as well. The ongoing challenge of undergraduate medical education is displayed by curriculum calendars and the volumes of content consumed by students and produced by schools. These challenges manifest themselves in a small percentage of students failing to meet the minimal competency and then being asked to repeat a year or a course. Awareness of the many influencing factors on the curriculum illustrates the need for a bridge to help the struggling student but also provides the tools\, time\, and resources to ensure the student is able to be successful moving forward. \nThe offering of the off-cycle curriculum is a mechanism for allowing students in the DO program an opportunity to complete the pre-clinical portion of the DO curriculum in 3 years instead of the traditional 2 years. The offering of this program is strictly voluntary and cannot be required for student participation. The off-cycle curriculum offers the student an opportunity to significantly improve course performance outcomes by decelerating a required portion of the curriculum. The decelerated pace of progressing through the curriculum allows the student to learn the material and create new habits to become a lifelong learner. Although this differs from the traditional Flexner model\, it takes into consideration the type of students who are matriculating into our medical school program. These students range from the students newly progressing from their undergraduate studies to the student who is progressing from the workforce. This curriculum is a chance to establish the foundation needed to not only matriculate through medical school but also become a successful physician. Any student who is enrolled in the off-cycle curriculum must successfully complete all required courses of the first and second preclinical curriculum. Upon decelerating\, students in the off-cycle curriculum will delay their graduation by one year\, and are subject to revisions in curriculum requirements and changes in tuition and fees of their new graduating class. \n  \nRobert  Walker\, PhD| Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine

SUMMARY:InteresTED: Super Chickens and Characteristics of Highly Effective Teams
DESCRIPTION:In the 2015 TED Talk\, Forget the Pecking Order at Work\, Margaret Heffernan argues that competition is not the way to create organizational success. Heffernan begins with the story of William Muir and his experiments with “super chickens” to engage the audience around the themes of competition and productivity. She states that organizations are often run according to “the super chicken model\,” where the value is placed on star employees who outperform others. \n  \nAnd yet\, this isn’t what drives the most high-achieving teams. Rather\, social connections and people’s interactions with one another are the keys to success. Heffernan goes on to discuss social capital and the importance of valuing everyone in order to solve our most “wicked problems.” \n  \nShe continues by presenting research and examples from various industries to illustrate that competition is not the answer to organizational wellness. It’s a radical rethink of what drives us to do our best work\, and what it means to be a leader. Because as Heffernan points out: “Companies don’t have ideas. Only people do.” \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nRecite what happens when we just use Super Chickens in our work teams\nIdentify the three characteristics of the successful and highly effective teams\nExplain the terms Social Capital and helpfulness

SUMMARY:Webinar - How to Design a Micro-Credential that Meets Demand (Contact North/Nord)
DESCRIPTION:Canada has about 10\,000 micro-credentials. But many do not meet the definition of what they are intended to be: short\, focused\, intensive learning linked to skills that are in demand from employers\, industry or a profession. The situation is similar in the U.S. and Europe. The important question is how to design and develop micro-credentials that help more people find jobs\, change jobs or develop the skills they need to keep the jobs they already have. What needs to change in the current approach to this fast-changing form of learning? What can Canadian educators learn from developments elsewhere in the world? \nKey Takeaways \nBy participating in this webinar\, you will: \n\nUnderstand the current state of micro-credentials in Canada and the U.S. including those offered by MOOC providers (Coursera\, edX and FutureLearn) and industry.\nRecognize the five major limitations of the current offerings\nExamine an assessment-driven approach to skills and competency development linked to gap-based microlearning.\nAssess five major design changes needed to make micro-credentials work for students\, employers and communities.\nExplore the future of micro-credentials and long-form credentials: Are they gamechangers or “old wine in new bottles?\n\nFacilitator:   Stephen Murgatroyd | Chief Innovation Officer\, Contact North| Contact Nord

SUMMARY:Ditch Toxic Positivity -- Here's What to Do Instead
DESCRIPTION:What is toxic positivity? In a Healthline article on toxic positivity it was defined by clinical psychologist Jamie Zuckerman as\, “The assumption\, either by one’s self or others\, that despite a person’s emotional pain or difficult situation\, they should only have a positive mindset or ‘positive vibes’.”   \nThis type of response to other people’s pain has been shown to do more harm than good. In this CETL session\, participants will look at other methods for supporting and responding to peers and students when difficult topics arise.  \n  \n  \nSession Objectives:  \n\nDefine toxic positivity and explain the negative aspects of it. \nProvide tips for supporting peers and students when difficult subjects arise.
