mindmapping - PTPP626

  • Heidi Wright on 20 Jan 14
     
    Brainstorm online with bubbl.us. Easily create colorful mind maps to print or share with others. Almost no learning curve. Businesses, universities, and other schools are using bubbl.us worldwide to generate ideas, map out processes and create presentations. I have used this site with my MOT students at UIndy when they return from analyzing workers at Costco. We consolidate their responses on this site, i.e., we use a different bubble to represent each dept. at Costco, i.e., Membership, Scanning, Tire Center, Bakery and Meat Dept. I imagine that it would be extremely effective for any "brainstorming" session that you might want to complete as an online exercise. I'm wondering whether it can be used in conjunction with Adobe Connect?

    Merlot Collection made up of 40,000 materials in 19 different material type categories. Materials are submitted by members of MERLOT community. Membership is free. I just signed up as adjunct faculty member and this appears to be an excellent resource for online teaching and learning. I recall being exposed to it in Julie Gahimer's course on Instructional Design & Delivery, but have neglected to use it.

    Prezi is a cloud based presentation software that opens up a new world between whiteboards and slides. The zoomable canvas makes it fun to explore ideas and the connections between them. The result: visually captivating presentations that lead your audience down a path of discovery. I have been using prezi for the past 3 years and with each update there is a shorter learning curve. More creative than power point presentations. MOT students who are more "right" brained and more global than linear in their thinking and learning seem to embrace the prezi format.

  • A "well-built" question should include four parts, referred to as PICO that identify the patient problem or population (P), intervention (I), comparison (C) and outcome(s) (O). 1
  • Primary Problem Patient's main concern or chief complaint Disease or health status Age, Race, Sex, Previous ailments, current medications
  • Heidi Wright on 27 Jan 14
     
    Excellent resource for students learning to write a PICO question. Thought this could come up in online research-related courses. The example is directly related to the dental population, but easy to follow.

    Share this one with your students! Stress. It makes your heart pound, your breathing quicken and your forehead sweat. But while stress has been made into a public health enemy, new research suggests that stress may only be bad for you if you believe that to be the case. Psychologist Kelly McGonigal urges us to see stress as a positive, and introduces us to an unsung mechanism for stress reduction: reaching out to others.

This time-honored practice—mentoring—has both formal and informal aspects, and, when done right, benefits both mentors and their protégés. This issue’s Thriving in Academe looks at the rewards and requirements for both parties.
  • Rethinking Expectations About Assignments It's frustrating for professors when students haven't done their out-of-class assignment. Too often, the students just don't take their homework seriously. But there's hope for frustrated professors, this issue's Thriving in Academe authors claim. Make sure your students know why the assignment is important and try to connect it to their lives.
