HTC 388: Leading Teams for Health Care Excellence

Alice Andrews
This course, Leading Teams for Health Care Excellence, was designed for a team-taught, hybrid program: the MS in Health Care Transformation. It is designed to help students better understand their own strengths and weaknesses as leaders; build high-functioning teams; communicate more effectively; and lead to create organizational change. The online portion of the course follows a standard weekly rhythm that includes group and individual assignments, asynchronous work, and synchronous “roundtable” discussions. Roundtables include breakout groups, case analyses, polls, role play exercises, and full class discussions. The teaching team includes Erin Donovan, Alice Andrews, Victoria Davis, and Kasey Ford.

HIN 507: First Year Hindi II

Gautami Shah
In Spring 2020, transitioning from traditional face-to-face instruction to a completely online mode of instruction posed a challenge for HIN 507 in terms of both, teaching with a non-Roman script, as well as ensuring that students were engaged and participated actively during class Zoom sessions. To be successful, language courses require both, effective communication about and in the language from the teacher, and active student participation and involvement. The unexpected transition to a solely online mode of instruction required a rapid re-assessment, re-thinking and re-tooling of teaching style, course materials, projects, assignments and assessment. By sharing and discussing specific examples of actual projects and class activities, I shall demonstrate how approaching the transition to online teaching as an opportunity to tap on previously unavailable resources, and effectively employ previously untapped on but user-friendly technology and software like Panopto, Zoom and Google docs, to name a few, resulted in a productive and fulfilling experience for both, the teacher and the students.
