Case Study: Learning Hands-On Skills Using the ApprenNet Video Platform
[Presented at the NE eLearning Consortium Conference at Gwynedd Mercy University on 10/20/2015] Can something as hands-on and complex as physical and occupational therapy be taught remotely? Learn how one school, the University of the Sciences, uses ApprenNet, a video-based learning solution, to train the next generation of health professionals. What is ApprenNet? ApprenNet is a video-based platform where skills are practiced and assessed within a community of peers and experts. Instructors build three stage-learning exercises that offer an opportunity for Learners to develop skills through role-play, peer interactivity, and coaching. Case Study: University of the Sciences The University of the Sciences believes that simulation is a powerful tool for preparing students for the real world of healthcare. The program prides itself on experiential learning. However, with more than 2,000 students, instructors struggle to give students adequate time to practice real world skills. In 2012, we discovered a potential solution – ApprenNet. In ApprenNet, we saw a means to provide all students frequent opportunity to practice skills without overcrowding in the simulation lab or overburdening the professor with hours upon hours of grading. For the last two years, University of the Sciences has used ApprenNet to increase practical skills training in its PT and OT programs. As is the case with early adopters, they discover new ways to leverage the platform that the founders did not consider. Dr. Murray is going to demonstrate a series of use cases to demonstrate the multiple ways instructors can use ApprenNet to teach something as hands-on and complex as healthcare science online.

Notas do Editor
- Launched careers of many innovative pioneers, including founders of world’s leading pharmaceutical firms
- 8 long pond drive, layton, nj
- The ‘other’ responses were mostly me and my staff.
- Of course, all used Peer Review, or otherwise it wouldn’t make much sense to use ApprenNet. Expert Response means that students saw the instructor or expert video. Top Reviewed means that they used the “leader board” Featured videos meant that the instructor could highlight those videos thay may have not been highly rated by their peers, but were, nontheless, very good examples. Discussion: in the Recap stage you can create a Discussion Thread Timestamps can be used when commenting on a particular time point in the video. Rubrics can be used to coach students on how to rate and give feedback to their peers.
- Other: online poster session
- All faculty are committed to using ApprenNet in the future, with 44% wanting to increase its use.
- Highly recommended
- Helps make a large class feel more intimate
- You learned from Ryan how instructors can present schenarious for students to respond to. Here are some alternate use cases
- 3.5 minute Btw, Rondalyn is now chair of OT at Clarkson University
- On average students create 3 videos before they upload their final response From Paul Freedman new CEO of ApprenNet.
- Rather than just being told what to learn Apprenticeship
- An area of emerging practice in OT
