Editor's Notes

  1. [Manish to mute Moose/Manish] [Manish to assign microphone rights for participants] Laura welcomes and ensures audio is working [Manish to mute Laura/Manish] Moose starts …
  2. Welcome to the Distance Education And Learning (or to use our acronym - DEAL) training. I’m Moose Alperin Delighted to have you participating. We have a number of housekeeping items to get through so I am going to jump right in. Also want to let you know that we’ll take ~10-15 min. stretch break around 1:30pm
  3. We’d like to do introductions. We’ve met each other online – so I’d like to be (very) brief. I’m Moose – one of the lead instructors – but along with me we have a team from the Region IV Public Health Training Center. And so that you will hear all our voices, I’d like each of them to quickly introduce themselves: Manish Michelle Laura Brita Arti In addition to the R-IV PHTC team, I’ve asked two colleagues from the Executive MPH instructional design team to help us with these synchronous sessions: Julia Angie Although I may be the primary voice you hear in these synchronous sessions, we have developed the training as a team and may tag team at times during these sessions.
  4. Again, we have met you online – so if we can quickly have everyone tell us: Your name Where you work
  5. Before we go further with Adobe Connect – I want to orient you to a few things: Down the left side of the screen, three boxes Attendee list Chat box – public or private DEAL files  click the upper right corner to get a DOWNLOAD option
  6. Towards upper left corner – see FIGURE w/ HAND RAISED Under this option – are ways you can interact with everyone else ------------------ To help with audio quality, we are going to mute everyone momentarily – but we will open the mics when we have discussion. If at any other time, you have a question or comment … RAISE YOUR HAND USE THE CHAT BOX ------------------ If you want to see the image on your screen bigger – FULL SCREEN Icon (4 arrows pointing out) To Exit Full Screen – icon that has 4 arrows pointing in Q: Any questions about Adobe Connect? [Manish to remove microphone rights for participants]
  7. Distance Education And Learning (DEAL) is a 4-part online course for experienced public health educators who are currently delivering live, in-person trainings. The intent is to provide you with tools and experiences that will assist you in taking your own curricula and translating them to an online environment. Successful Completion is determined by: Participation in all synchronous sessions (incl. capstone) Submission of intersession activities Those who complete will receive a CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION
  8. Overall Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to: Discuss the use of e-Learning standards in distance education. Describe tools used in distance-based instruction. Critique distance-based trainings using e-Learning standards. Incorporate distance-based teaching and assessment strategies to create a plan for instruction. Develop a training session related to a public health topic using e-Learning standards.
  9. Structure of the training: Pre-Session (or intersession activities) – YELLOW boxes Followed by 3 real-time sessions – DARK BLUE boxes Final capstone (you will each participate in only 1 of the 2 dates)
  10. For the Capstone projects – ask each person to begin the initial development of a distance-based training. On May 16 or 17 – each person will do a 10 minute presentation on the training you’d like to develop. Presentation will include: Intended audience Topic of learning/training session (description of training) Learning objectives Teaching strategies Assessment strategies Technology(ies) to be used Areas where you are having trouble Idea is that we will have a follow-up training (offer TA) for those who are interested – and help them more fully develop their course. Anticipated this will be summer 2016.
  11. I’ve shared with you what the course is all about. Equally important to share what we have not included: Because you are all experienced trainers and educators, we have not included basic curriculum topics such as: Adult learning theory How to write learning objectives Chunking course content
  12. CourseSites by Blackboard is where we will house instructional materials. GO TO SITE AND SHOW THEM WHERE THINGS ARE LOCATED Announcements Course Overview (syllabus, synchronous dates) Session Materials (organized by sessions, intersessions) Discussion Board Introductions General Q&A Content Questions Eureka … Look What I Found Session 1 Small Group Activity: Tool Discovery Intersession 1 Activity: Course Review Intersession 2 Activity: Initial Training Plan Resources DEAL Sources for PH Trainings Curriculum Basics Creating Distance Learning Courses Course Staff Q: Any questions about CourseSites? [Manish to assign / remove microphone rights for participants]
  13. This is the first time we have done a training like this – and we look forward to getting feedback from you. Brita Bergland, who you already met, will be overseeing the evaluation of the training. Brita …
  14. Q: Any questions about the training? [Manish to assign / remove microphone rights for participants]
  15. In the pre-session, you learned some about the following topics: Common Terminology Quality e-Learning Standards An Overview of Technology Tools We will delve into these topics in more depth in this session.
  16. In pre-session module, you thought about your own learning style Here are your results … 9% (n=1) – auditory 27% (n=3) – verbal, visual (each) 36% (n=4) – kinesthetic Q: What do you think? Are you surprised by this distribution? [Manish to assign / remove microphone rights for participants] We did this as a reminder that learners in your own trainings, will represent different styles, and it is important to think about how you will meet different learners’ needs. If we think about the DEAL training, for example: Pre-session modules (AUDITORY, VISUAL) Review of content in these live synchronous sessions (AUDITORY, VISUAL) Hands on opportunity to research tools and later use tools (PSEUDO-KINESTHETIC – you’re exploring on your own vs. watching me) Share experiences (VERBAL)
  17. Pre-session presented definitions. Want to note that different people define some of these terms – online, e-Learning, distance-based learning – differently and that’s ok. I’m not going to spend additional time on these – so that we can cover other topics To review, see pre-session [Definitions from … National Training Coordination Plan which is a document developed to promote high quality training, learning and continuing education for the public health workforce within the network of national Public Health Training Centers.]
  18. There are different quality standards for developing distance-based or e-Learning trainings. In DEAL we are going to use a set that is from a project the de Beaumont Foundation has funded which started with standards from Quality Matters. Quality Matters is an international organization that has developed quality assurance processes that are used to ensure the quality of online and blended courses in academic and continuing professional education. de Beaumont then funded a project to modify these Quality Matter’s standards for the public health workforce and continuing professional education. Although these standards are still in draft form, we have been given permission to share the preliminary standards. Also want to let you know that the trade-off for our using these is that we’ve promised to provide feedback to the de Beaumont folks on the “use” of the standards. So, not only will you use the standards to evaluate a training – but we will ask you about the ease of use when completing this activity. ----------------------------- You were introduced to the 8 general standards in pre-session module Each general standard has sub-standards which we will review
  19. Important to remember that good curriculum design is good curriculum design As trainers – these standards will be familiar to you (even if you’ve never designed for the distance environment) Standards don’t address quality of the content – instead it’s really the quality of the teaching
  20. S1: The overall design of the course is made clear to the learner at the beginning of the course. Sub-standards: Clearly stated instructions Course purpose/structure are explained Pre-req. knowledge and requirements are stated
  21. S2: Learning objectives or competencies describe what learners will be able to do upon completion of the course. Sub-standards: LOs/comps describe measurable outcomes Individual module/unit LOs/competencies – describe outcomes consistent with overall LOs/comps LO/comps are clearly written Relationship between LOs/comps AND course activities is clear LOs/comps are appropriate for level of course content [so you don’t have higher level objectives in a 101 basic course]
  22. S3: Assessment strategies are integral to the learning process and are designed to evaluate learner progress in achieving the stated learning objectives or mastering the competencies. Sub-standards: Assessments measure stated LOs/comps Course description includes methods for successful completion of course Criteria used to evaluate successful course completion are provided
  23. S4: Instructional materials enable learners to achieve stated learning objectives or competencies. Sub-standards: Instructional materials contribute to achievement of course and module LOs/comps Resources/materials are referenced or cited Instructional materials are relevant, current and authoritative
  24. S5: Course activities facilitate and support learner interaction and engagement. Sub-standard: Learning activities support achievement of LOs/comps Q: Before I move to the last 3 standards, do these resonate with you? Any comments? [Manish to assign / remove microphone rights for participants] Comments: So far, none of the standards are specific to distance-based learning. Good quality design!
  25. S6: Course technologies support learners’ achievement of course objectives or competencies. Sub-standards: Tools, visuals, media elements support LOs/comps Course tools promote learner engagement and active learning
  26. S7: The course facilitates learner access to support services essential to learner success. Sub-standards: Instructions provide info or links to access technical support services A description or link to accessibility policies or services is provided
  27. S8: The course design reflects a commitment to accessibility and usability for all learners. Sub-standard: - Info is provided about accessibility for all technologies required in the course Q: Any thoughts? Q: Any of these where we should do a better job? [Standards 7 and 8 – although folks who work @ federal agencies probably do these.] [Manish to assign / remove microphone rights for participants] Comments: Again, not related to distance-education Important not to add technology for the sake of technology – all boils down to good quality design
  28. Next we want to introduce you to a myriad of technology tools. Where we could, we have tried to find free or low-cost options (additionally your institution may have access to some of these) Reference handout – In FILES pod of Adobe Connect Also on CourseSites You will have a copy in Breakout Rooms later on
  29. In the pre-session, we presented tools for first six categories: [lots of ways to categorize tools] Course Management System Tools Technologies that can be used to host online course materials. Many of these have built-in features such as discussion boards, ability to post instructional materials, and grading capabilities. [CourseSites being used for DEAL] Authoring Tools Allows trainers to develop professional, engaging and interactive training content [Pre-session module – Captivate] Audio Recording Tools  As the name suggests, allows the user to record and edit voice or other audio [Create podcasts]
  30. Video and Screen Capture Tools Allow the user to create video or capture still images – for inclusion in a training module Synchronous Meeting/Collaboration Tools  Asynchronous Meeting/Collaboration Tools:   Allow users to meet and collaborate in a training or on a project – either in a real-time synchronous environment or in an asynchronous environment Synchronous – Adobe Connect, Skype, GoogleHangouts Asynchronous – project management/collaboration (document management, calendar, email) – SharePoint, GoogleDocs, wikis (Wikispaces) Q: Before I introduce other tools, did anyone try any – or have experience with any of these that you’d like to speak about? [Manish to assign / remove microphone rights for participants]
  31. Blogging Tools Used to capture learner-created (often text) content [things like personal reflections, journaling] Presentation Tools Probably the most familiar to everyone b/c PPT falls into this category Whiteboard Tools Instructor and learners can use a whiteboard [brainstorm session; math/stats]
  32. Image/Video Sharing Tools Previous category provided tools for capturing or creating images/video – here talking about “sharing” Personal Response Systems / Polling Tools Polling tools [Poll Everywhere used to capture learning styles] Visualization Tools Different tools for visually displaying information Dipity  interactive timelines Motion Chart  growth of something over time Newsmap.jp way to see news (by category) Tableau Public  visualize data w/ lots of different types of maps Wordle  word clouds
  33. Survey Tools Don’t forget about … - Search Engines - Text-based Communication Tools - Simulations/Virtual Worlds  refer to handout
  34. There are a huge number of options – so how do you decide what technology to use? Q: What are some of the things you would pay attention to when picking a technology? [Manish to assign / remove microphone rights for participants] Let me share a number of questions that you might ask yourself ...
  35. So how do you decide what technology to use? Share with you a number of questions that you might ask yourself. -------------------------- What content and learning objectives are you trying to teach? [teaching how to LIST may be different than how to DO; teaching biostats vs. ethics] What type of information needs to be conveyed? [see slide] What is the depth of the information that needs to be shared (e.g., superficial, detailed)? What is the immediacy of the information to convey? [It’s an emergency – and you need to do JIT training for responders – how approach that?] Does information need to be "pushed" or can you wait for the learner to "pull" it? [email vs. discussion board]
  36. What type of interactions are needed … [some technologies are better for certain interactions; w/ Adobe Connect – easy to have audio from speaker – other issues (sound quality) when open mic for lots of people] How important is portability and mobility? [environmentalists out in the field who need training materials with them] What are the software and hardware capabilities of the learners? [poll learners but they don’t have “clickers” – need an alternative like smart phone technology] Does the solution need to work on multiple platforms (Macintosh, PC)? What is the learning curve needed to use the technology (user friendliness)?
  37. Does an Information Technology department need to deploy the technology?
