Courses on July 23rd

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.

Jocelly Meiners
In this project-based course, students research their field of interest and potential line of work by interviewing professionals in that field. They also prepare to enter that field by creating a CV and cover letter, and participating in a mock interview for a particular job. We will look at how halfway through the Spring semester we transitioned to doing all of this work online, using tools such as Canvas for peer reviews and Zoom for conducting interviews.

Observers will see a semi-asynchronous class, where once per week, students view a pre-recorded lecture filmed by their main instructor. An additional video of a "guest" lecturer is seen once a week, and then once a week we meet on Zoom. The course makes heavy use of Canvas, and its main distinguishing feature is the use of written communication (announcements, assignment descriptions) to evoke a conversational tone, similar to one that would be found in the classroom. Additionally, the course takes aim at creating a strong sense of instructor presence. [Large 51-100]

This course covers theory and research related to the pedagogy of design. Explores creation of design learning experiences. The course is brand new and has been designed for a 100% online experience. Because the course does not launch until Fall 2020, participants in this Eyes on Teaching Event will see the structure of one module that is meant to help students explore and apply their learning of an established e-learning framework called the Community of Inquiry Framework. Participants will observe how I set up readings, asynchronous assignments, lecture, and videos to ensure students are able to retain what they learn and transfer their learning to new contexts.
