SUMMARY:Zack and the Extraordinary Neuro Escape Room
DESCRIPTION:Gamification\, or the use of learning design coupled with game mechanics and logic\, has been shown to be an engaging and useful strategy in the classroom. An escape room is just one example of gamification\, and has been utilized across health profession students to promote collaboration and problem-solving. Through virtual experiential learning and team collaboration students are able to follow “Zack’s journey” and compete against the clock\, and each other\, in this virtual clinical application experience of didactic coursework.   \nThis session will describe the development\, implementation\, and outcomes (student satisfaction and engagement) of a virtual escape room incorporating a complex patient case for Doctor of Physical Therapy students. Participants will leave with the knowledge and resources of how to create a similar project in their own classrooms.  \nLearning Objectives:  \n\nDescribe the development\, implementation\, and outcomes of a virtual escape room \nIdentify how to create a similar project in one’s own classroom

SUMMARY:Webinar: The Hybrid Campus: How COVID-19 and Technology are Reshaping Colleges and Universities
DESCRIPTION:As higher education leaders\, decision-makers and governments look to the future of colleges and universities\, the decisions they make now will have impacts on our higher education system for years to come. \nThere is no doubt that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on our colleges and universities. But there is more to come. While many seek a return to “normal”\, they will need to adjust to the new normal. What does this involve? \n• A Hybrid Campus: All services\, not just teaching and learning\, will need to be offered online – advising\, careers guidance\, counseling\, registrar\, finance.\n• Rethinking the Academic Portfolio: Teaching and learning will need to be provided in every case as both blended and online – we can no longer assume that social gatherings in large numbers will be possible. We can also better serve a more diverse population through a hybrid approach.\n• Refocus Learning and the Student Experience – focus on lifelong learning\, engaged and authentic learning\, and collaborative learning experience. Intensify project-based learning and strengthen ties with alumni. \nBecoming hybrid will encourage innovation\, increase access\, improve quality and lower costs. It will be a compelling new model for many colleges and universities\, not just in the U.S. and Canada\, but around the world. It requires a real rethinking and reimagining of all workflows\, technology adoption and opportunities at colleges and universities. \nThere are several institutions already exemplifying some key features of this future – University of Central Florida\, Georgia State University – which will be used to illustrate this thinking. \nIn this interactive webinar\, Cole Clark\, Managing Director of Higher Education at Deloitte and author Jeffrey Selingo\, will share their thinking and the findings from some recent explorations. \n  \nKey Takeaways \n• How the academic portfolio will be reshaped by a shift to the hybrid campus.\n• What the hybrid campus means for the college and university

SUMMARY:Based on Bandersnatch: Designing a “Choose Your Own Adventure” eLearning Module
DESCRIPTION:Emmy award winning Black Mirror: Bandersnatch was Netflix’s first interactive movie that allowed the viewer to choose the movie’s storyline.  Like the popular Choose Your Own Adventure books from the 1970’s\, Bandersnatch created multiple paths within the storyline based on the choices selected by the viewer. The question became\, can we create an eLearning module based on the framework of Bandersnatch? \n  \nIt was a question posed by a College of Pharmacy faculty member who wanted to reimagine their lecture on therapeutic medication for schizophrenia diagnosis. Bandersnatch’s creative layout and extensive branching scenarios provided the ideal format for a schizophrenia patient case study\, and Articulate Storyline was the only authoring tool powerful enough to make this idea come to life. \n  \nThe simulated case study follows the patient\, PJ\, through multiple medication timelines.  Similar to Bandersnatch\, the student chooses which medication to prescribe PJ\, and therefore chooses their own individual learning path.  Much of the module branching originates from the virtual pharmacy in which the student has six medications to prescribe to the patient.  Once a selection is made\, the student travels down the education path. \n  \nThroughout the education path the student learns about the prescribed medication\, answers questions\, participates in interactions\, and discovers common medication side-effects.  The side-effects ultimately overwhelm PJ\, and the learner is forced to return to the virtual pharmacy slide to choose another medication for the patient.  Intricate triggers are integrated within the module forcing the student to learn about\, and exhaust\, all medication options until the correct medication appears on the pharmacy shelf thereby proving the ending path of the case simulation. \n  \nThe complicated branching scenario in the eLearning module includes over 80 slides\, 40 layers\, 35 interactions\, 20 variables\, over 100 triggers\, and a result slide that captures the student’s choices along the way.  Additionally\, all the representative artwork integrated within the design was created by individuals living with schizophrenia. \n  \nIn this session we will review the creative and design process that begun with generic PowerPoint themed slides supplied by the SME and discuss how the content was reimagined and retooled to be an engaging eLearning module student experience.

SUMMARY:5 Tips to help Increase Student Morale in a time of Remote Learning
DESCRIPTION:Look…this pandemic has been hard on all of us. Each of us battling our own unique challenges; and\, after 11 months\, it’s no wonder that we’re all exhausted by our “new normal”. Students are no different\, and for many\, morale is low. \n  \nNo surprise to many of us\, EdWeek is reporting that more than 50% of students and 75% of instructors within a remote-learning environment have lower morale than before the pandemic. The U.K. Office of National Statistics reported that more than half of the students surveyed identified that their well-being and mental health has worsened these past 11 months. And\, according to a report by The Jed Foundation\, 63% of students say their mental health is worse since the start of the pandemic. No surprise\, student morale is low. \n  \nIn this session\, we will hone in on five (5) tips to help increase student morale within the online learning environment\, and how sometimes those simple changes can make all the difference. Please also bring your thinking-caps because we will open the floor for the opportunity to share conversations and our own experiences in making the remote learning environment better for students. \n

SUMMARY:Webinar | Anti-Racism in Academia: A Learning Journey – Learn (Partner Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:In response to the dialogue across EDUCAUSE community groups and within our personal lives\, a small group of community leaders have developed the Anti-Racism in Academia: A Learning Journey (ARiA) series. The ARiA series was created to inspire a more understanding and inclusive community in higher education by engaging professionals of all levels and across disciplines. Combatting racism on a personal\, professional\, and communal scale requires time and intentional effort; it really is a journey of discovery and understanding. \nThe ARiA series framework is organized into five parts: Reach Out\, Listen\, Learn\, Act\, Persist. \nThis month’s focus is on Learning from the conversations and shared resources with the goal of achieving conscientiousness around racism. Come join us for the kickoff webinar\, and sign-up for a breakout discussion. \nOutcomes\nWe want to enable participants to get the most out of their learning journey. We designed the ARiA framework to accomplish three main goals: \n\nCreate safe spaces to explore\, share\, and learn.\nPromote personal and professional growth through expanded awareness and expanded understanding of different racial perspectives.\nEmpower participants to foster a more inclusive and understanding higher ed community with expanded ideas\, perspectives\, and strategies.\n\nBelow is the link to register for the webinar. \nhttps://apps.cirrusidentity.com/console/ds/index?entityID=https%3A%2F%2Fsso.educause.edu%2Fsp&return=https%3A%2F%2Fsso.educause.edu%2Fmodule.php%2Fsaml%2Fsp%2Fdiscoresp.php%3FAuthID%3D_7ec2c75c8a02870f724034f3dc9607e625d2f76102%253Ahttps%253A%252F%252Fsso.educause.edu%252Fidp%252FstartSSO.ping%253Fspentityid%253Durn%25253Acvent%25253Aevents%2526RelayState%253Dhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.cvent.com%25252Fd%25252F37qq9f%25252F4W%2526cookieTime%253D1601050673&returnIDParam=idpentityid

SUMMARY:Learning objectives: The basics on "how to" write clear learning objectives
DESCRIPTION:Learning objectives are the basis of any learning event. Ideally\, learning objectives should be shared with the learners so that they understand what is expected to be covered by the end of the session. If they are not shared\, they at least provide the “structural bones” of the lesson or learning episode. Learning objectives also serve as a map for writing assessments of student learning. This session will help you create learning objectives that are clear and communicate expectations to the learners. \nBy the end of this session\, the attendee will be able to: \n\nRecognize the common mistakes that prevent a learning objective from being helpful to learners\nList\, describe and apply the SMART steps of creating a learning objective\nDescribe and utilize the “Learning Objective Stair Step” chart to create clear learning objectives

SUMMARY:Write Questions for the Right Answer
DESCRIPTION:What happens if students write exam questions instead of taking exam questions? Writing questions is a rich learning experience. \nThe session is a micro-learning approach to the process of student-driven test items. We will consider an idea to increase student involvement in learning and self-evaluation\, minimize cheating\, decrease exam stress\, and make learning and testing experiences more meaningful. We will share ideas for how to incorporate student question writing into lesson planning and test construction. \nPlease be prepared to share your experiences with the group if you have utilized question writing as a teaching or exam strategy. We’d love to hear how it went! \n
