Innovations in Education 2017 Symposium
Woke up this morning still energized by the lessons and discussions from yesterday! It was an absolute pleasure learning and sharing with more than 160 medical educators from throughout eastern Pennsylvania. Congratulations are deserved by the Division of Education in Lehigh Valley Health Network (@LVHN) for a wonderful event.
Here is a snapshot of what they pulled together (and what I was able to participate in):
- Crafting a Story of You for Resilience and Vitality Within Professional Identity Formation – Hedy S. Wald, PhD
- The Top Three Creative Teaching Strategies for 2017: Be Wise to What’s Up and Coming – Michele L. Deck, MEd
- Beyond the Classroom: Using Virtual and Social Learning Tools – Virginia Cooney, MS and Andrew Katz, MA
- How to Conquer Presentation Challenges and Avoid Common Pitfalls – Amy B. Smith, PhD, and Nicole Defenbaugh, PhD
- Igniting the Fire Presentation Style: Hospital-Based Interprofessional Simulation Program – Deborah S. Arnold, MSN, RN
- Effective Learning and Behavior Change Requires Time – yours truly
There is nothing like being there – and I have made many new connections that may last a career – but to give a sense of what was shared, I have pulled together my notes from the event in a simple Storify:
