– Observation– Retention– Reproduction– Motivation

• Encourage senior leaders to use informal video– More efficient, more humanizing

Learning

MOOCs• Penn State + Coursera• Low completion rate, but the

percentage is still a significant number of students

• Major difference is the scale of the course

• Instructor enthusiasm; engaging discussions

• Enhance brand, global marketing, engage alumni, direct revenue, corporate partnerships (~50k per course)

• Demographics – young, well-educated, currently employed– Implies a training need for the workplace

• Coursera, Udacity, FutureLearn, Canvas network, edX

• Unbundling the degree with credentialing, CBL, etc

• Bundle MOOC courses into specialization areas + Capstone

Commitment

Emerging Technology• Personalized learning, “piece it together”

– Quora, Chatter, Twitter Feed

• Google analytics – insert JavaScript into a course and then get a feed

• Inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyQfye4vAQ8 • Autodesk 123D Catch – 3D scans of an object• Don’t Make Me Think (Book on UI Design)• www.sealworks.com – interactive video vendor• http://www.apple.com/osx/continuity/ Multi-device capability

increasingly critical

Augmented Reality

• 2 ways to leverage it:– Location-based, overlays over real life– Picture-based, triggered by an image

• Could be video, form, 3D image, subscription – almost anything• https://www.aurasma.com/

– Enders channel for examples

• Aurasma, Layar, Wikitude• Heavily used by those at the conference, especially in the

medical field• QR code without the trigger; picture-based learning enhances

future connections

Interactive .pdf• Can embed a 3D

model, interactions, video…

• Adobe In-Design to create

• Works best in Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader, but most features still work in other readers

HTML5• http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/ source code,

templates, and more• Parallax scrolling http://

www.creativebloq.com/web-design/parallax-scrolling-1131762 • www.jwplayer.com for video support• .svg and <canvas> graphics• http://phonegap.com/ to turn a standard web page into a

mobile app• Google Chrome – freedeveloper tools in the browser for testing• www.browserstack.com for testing• https://typekit.com/ for fonts that can be embedded in the web

Data Analysis and Mobile

• Scenario based questions rather than terminology based - doesn't have to be complex to be effective

• Beware of benchmarking data against competitors - what does their data even mean?

• Determine the standards for data prior to rolling out the course– this should also drive the type of

data we're collecting

• Authenticity of environment, think of mobile as “where” not “how” learners learn

• Direct people to chat as needed, otherwise, learners may get distracted by it

CBL• CBL specific

– UW Flexible option program using Brightspace LMS– CBL is not new, has been around for healthcare for a long time – Bartman's wheel of competency model– 1 to 1 assessment to competency model– Faculty more grading, less on teaching– Letter grade and pass/fail, need an A or a B, then need to tetake it– Subscription period, 2 attempts usually dropped and then take again in

next cycle, if fail again, directed to regular courses

• Course Design– Bloom's taxonomy to align to assessment type– Considerations are maintenance, grading effort, creation effort, and

scalability.– 1 assessment mapped to multiple types of assessment, paper quiz

scenario etc– Encourage brainstorming from SMEs, not handing over a perfect

product– Google test - if I can Google it, it's not a good question :)– Mapping is key - see photo. Ensures viability of assessments in the

course– 6-8 months per course for development
