Innovative Instructional Materials and Methods • Self-paced course units • Modular content design • Short (under 25 min) videos for single topic • No references to specific unit/module/course • Intro/summary videos to put the content in context • Content tagging and reuse • Flashcards as study guide • Ignite presentations • Interview-style guest lectures • Course navigation guide • Gamification • Smart Podium • Response-specific audio feedback to quizzes 4 certificate courses, which include one course that is also part of the AMIA 10 x 10, provide basic information for someone wanting to learn about health informatics, but who may not be degree-seeking. Program and Curriculum Design • UAB AMIA 10x10 and certificate can be applied to the full master’s degree • Content same across different programs; delivery modality modified to accommodate needs of type of student enrolling • Format of certificate courses significantly redesigned, later applied to other programs • Self-paced online modules, 2-4 units/weeks long • Collaboration with instructional designers • Innovative instructional methods, including increased use of video Evaluation of Certificate Course Format Redesign • Midterm course evaluation survey (first two courses) • Individual course elements, including use of video for module overviews • Best features/areas for improvement • Time spent on course • Instructor performance • Preference for graduate credit vs continuing education • Analysis of video access statistics Innovative Instructional Materials and Methods Form more info uab.edu/hi • 50% of certificate students later enrolled in UAB’s MSHI program • 86% of certificate students preferred transferrable graduate credit with graded assignments as opposed to only continuing education credit or pass/fail courses • 80% of students preferred video module introductions as opposed to text • All redesigned/innovative course elements found helpful by all students • All students spent more than 8 hours per week on each course; majority spent more than 12 hours/course • Sample comments from midterm course evaluations • “The lectures are very informative and helpful. The way lectures are recorded, it seems like a live class and not a prerecorded video.” • “[One of the best things was] the concentrated learning pace. I have learned a GREAT DEAL in a short period of time.” • “VERY good picture of the current state of information systems in healthcare.” • “Online learning is a challenge for me.” • “… learning to pace myself is an area for improvement ” • Comparison of videos using Smart Podium vs narrated slides • Focus on lectures for application of concepts; half of which used Smart Podium • Mean number of plays/student: 2.2 for Smart Podium lectures and 1.4 for narrated slides
