SUMMARY:Facilitator Development Series
DESCRIPTION:As competency-based education expands across the health professions the methods we use in the classroom also expand in order to promote active learning both inside and outside of the classroom. While we develop new learner skills through a competency-based approach we must also develop new faculty skills to meet the expanding needs for our students to attain competence. Both small group and large classroom teaching must adapt and expand how we teach and how we engage with learners.\n\nIn this 8-week faculty development series we will explore various teaching techniques and facilitator skills that can be used in the classrooms\, laboratories\, simulations\, and in clinical practice sites. The series will progress through 8 sessions. Each session will last 1 hour and is broken down into a theory burst about a specific teaching technique or facilitator skill\, followed by a practice period. The session will end with a debrief along with making specific plans to use the technique/skill with learners. Sessions will occur every other Friday over the course of a semester. While there is a progression in the skills focused upon faculty are welcome to sign up and participate in any of the sessions. The series will run the length of the Spring semester\nThe Second session is scheduled for Friday\, January 21\, 2022 from 3-4 PM via Zoom. Subsequent sessions are scheduled for the same time every other Friday. Faculty across both campuses and clinical sites are welcome to attend.

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.

SUMMARY:This Meeting Could have Been an Email.
DESCRIPTION:Meeting overload was a problem before the pandemic\, but now with back-to-back Zoom meetings instead of the long Esplanade walks to our conference room destination\, we have more time…and more time means more meetings. Advice on facilitating better meetings is plentiful\, but often skips a crucial first step: asking yourself whether you need to have a meeting in the first place. \n  \nDuring this session\, we will uncover the answer to the question that has plagued our Outlook calendars for years…Could this meeting have been an email? \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n– Identify if a meeting should be an email by using a simple flowchart. \n– List the steps that can be taken to maximize meeting effectiveness. \n– Explain how to effectively write a structured email to help reduce meetings

SUMMARY:Facilitator Development Series
DESCRIPTION:As competency-based education expands across the health professions the methods we use in the classroom also expand in order to promote active learning both inside and outside of the classroom. While we develop new learner skills through a competency-based approach we must also develop new faculty skills to meet the expanding needs for our students to attain competence. Both small group and large classroom teaching must adapt and expand how we teach and how we engage with learners. \n  \nIn this 8-week faculty development series\, we will explore various teaching techniques and facilitator skills that can be used in the classrooms\, laboratories\, simulations\, and in clinical practice sites. The series will progress through 8 sessions. Each session will last 1 hour and is broken down into a theory burst about a specific teaching technique or facilitator skill\, followed by a practice period. The session will end with a debrief along with making specific plans to use the technique/skill with learners. Sessions will occur every other Friday over the course of a semester. While there is a progression in the skills focused upon faculty are welcome to sign up and participate in any of the sessions. The series will run the length of the Fall semester and will be repeated again in the Spring semester. \n  \nThe first session is scheduled for Friday\, August 13\, from 3-4 PM via Zoom. Subsequent sessions are scheduled for the same time every other Friday. Faculty across both campuses and clinical sites are welcome to attend.

SUMMARY:Developing Virtual Standardized Patients for Health Sciences Education using Natural Language Dialogue Systems
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will summarize our work on creating conversational virtual standardized patients for medical education. Our Virtual Standardized Patients are avatar representations of human patients which are controlled by artificial intelligence software. Students can converse using natural language\, practice their history taking skills and receive immediate feedback on their interaction. Students can interview the Virtual Patients via a web site\, on their iPads\, or using a Virtual Reality headset in which the students are virtually in the room with their patients to enhance the authenticity and realism of the experience. We have Virtual Standardized Patients with a variety of chief complaints including back pain\, abdominal pain\, headache\, dizziness\, shortness of breath\, dysuria\, and sadness. We are currently working on a patient with Opioid Use Disorder\, a patient with Limited English Proficiency\, and a Virtual Cancer Patient for health care providers to practice difficult conversations. \nDouglas Danforth is a Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at The Ohio State University College of Medicine. He has been involved in Virtual Patient and Virtual Reality research for over 15 years. His lab is funded by the Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration\, The Ohio Department of Medicaid\, The Institute for Innovative Technologies in Medial Education\, The Agency for Health Care Research and Quality\, and The National Science Foundation.

SUMMARY:Webinar - Don’t Ignore the D.E.A.: Design\, Equity\, and Access in Online Education | Quality Matters
DESCRIPTION:The “digital divide” was a term coined in 2012 to describe the disparity amongst those students who did have internet access and those who did not (Van Dijk\, 2012). Research indicates teacher preparation and quality of teaching is the leading factor in student success. Poor preparation and inadequate quality of design strategies can deprive students of equitable use and access to optimal digital-based learning experiences (Delgado\, 2019). In this session\, we will discuss how through the incorporation of intentional design strategies\, strategies that promote equity and access\, we can create more inclusive learning experiences for our students. \n  \nPresented by Stephanie Delgado\, Senior Instructional Designer\, Florida International University

SUMMARY:Webinar: Partnerships in Instruction: Deepening Collaboration Among Instructional Support Staff\, Faculty and Students | Educause
DESCRIPTION:Teaching and learning is of critical importance to academic libraries as they seek to align themselves with the mission of their universities. To effectively support faculty in their teaching\, librarians and other instructional support staff need techniques and tools to foster collaboration. The demand for online instructional support during the pandemic affirmed the necessary role of libraries in assisting students and faculty. Join us to discuss how librarians might join forces with instructional support staff such as learning designers\, instructional technologists\, professional developers for centers of teaching and learning to enhance collaborative work with faculty and students. Questions we will explore together include: \n\nWhat are your challenges in supporting courses?\nHow can we enhance our collaboration to better support courses?\nWhat processes and relationships do we need for collaborative instructional support?\nWhat kind of professional development and/or workplace learning among staff and faculty might support these efforts?\n\nThe main audience for this QuickTalk is instructional librarians\, instructional technologists\, learning designers\, professional development staff (in centers of teaching and learning)\, and other instructional support staff who would like to collaborate to improve teaching and learning. \nFacilitated by:  John McCormick\, Associate Director of Learning Design | Brandeis University\, Waltham Massachusetts   \n                           Kathe Pelletier\, Director\, Teaching and Learning Program | Educause\, Washington\, District of Columbia \n

SUMMARY:Getting Started with Quality Matters
DESCRIPTION:Quality Matters began with a small group of Maryland colleagues who were trying to solve a common problem among institutions: how do we measure and guarantee the quality of a course? This question became important because many institutions were trying to create a system where they could share available seats in their online courses with other institutions. Because of this\, they worked to create courses of quality for their students\, regardless of where the course originated. In 2003\, the colleagues created the Quality Matters program\, which would create a scalable process for course quality assurance.  \nIn this session\, participants will be introduced to Quality Matters and how it can be helpful in effective course development. Participants will also look at some of the rubrics that are central to Quality Matters implementation.   \n  \n  \nSession Objectives:  \n\nProvide background and overview of Quality Matters  \nReview Quality Matters rubrics for higher education \nDescribe the benefits of using Quality Matters for course quality and development \n\n
