Return on investment

LinkingHealthProfessionals' Video Sharing module introduces a new way for employers and educators to share information and to engage employees/students in the learning process.

You can achieve this by:

Strengthening your educational or training program

School curricula or workplace training programs can be strengthened by the introduction of video sharing. Teachers/employers can introduce videos into their 'virtual' classroom thereby enriching the learning process. Video group projects can be introduced into a classroom environment encouraging teamwork while at the same time motivating students through a new learning method.

Providing new means of collaboration

Online multimedia is the communication method of choice for today's younger generation of learners. Web-based video sharing can assist educators in the learning process. With LinkingHealthProfessionals, educators/employers are able to post videos to share with their students/employees. Each member has the ability to view and comment on videos thus encouraging dialogue. Videos can also be posted with the intent to encourage collaboration on special projects.

Bridging the geographic gap and introducing a convenient means of learning

Video sharing is the perfect tool to assist in a long distance education forum. Students in a distance education program can receive tutorials from instructors and be able to communicate with other classmates online anywhere, anytime.

Case Study

Overview

Business Needs

The learning experience is varied and its effectiveness in part is dependent on how the course material is delivered. Large classroom settings are not always practical or even possible and in a distance learning environment it can be difficult to provide the student with a sense of connection. In healthcare education some of the learning may revolve around a particular patient case study and in certain situations, simply reading about the case may not be effective.

Solution

With the Video Sharing module in LinkingHealthProfessionals schools are able to assign students in a specific course to a particular video session and allow the students to comment on the recording. Collaboration is set in motion through the ongoing dialogue.







Benefits

A school using the Video Sharing module makes available to their students a new and effective practical learning method. The videos provide the opportunity for students to collaborate with one another thus allowing them to become more engaged than might be possible in a normal classroom environment.






Case

The University of Toronto Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing offers a variety of programs at the undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate levels, which in total account for more than 700 active students. It's a professional faculty that is recognized worldwide in research and education, providing students the opportunity to study in numerous programs. Training methods range from classroom settings to clinical experience.

Challenges

Educators have an ongoing challenge of how to consistently engage students in the classroom, even more so in a distance education program. How do they present material and cases in a new way or how do they keep everyone in the class in synch with proper instructions? In healthcare education, where patient procedures are taught, it is essential to have students understand methods and instruction. Paper-based learning has restrictions as some students do not benefit from written instruction alone.

Solution

Organizations are starting to add a multimedia component as part of their overall education strategy. With LinkingHealthProfessionals Video Sharing module, audio/video files can be made available for course study by assigning students and teachers to specific sessions. Students and teachers have access to video materials relating to course material, and have the ability to comment and create notes for each video session thus engaging the student in a virtual classroom. Video files are accessed through a secure network and are available only to those assigned. Procedures, case studies and other relevant material can be presented by a visual or audio means, supplementing the traditional means of learning.

Benefits Realized:

With LinkingHealthProfessionals Video Sharing module you can create an ELearning environment with the following benefits:

Convenience

Students and teachers have access to video files anywhere, anytime, through a secure network. Video sharing is an ideal addition to distance education programs where students do not have the ideal classroom experience. Case studies and procedures can still be taught using video sharing with the same effectiveness as classroom demonstration. With LinkingHealthProfessionals Video Sharing module geographic boundaries can be eliminated.

Collaboration

Introducing a video sharing module can engage students in collaboration. Video projects can be introduced thus creating a new method of teambuilding in the classroom. All students and teachers have the ability to comment and post notes for each video session encouraging further dialogue and participation.

Reporting

Administrators have the ability to view sessions and recordings. Video mapping status can be viewed indicating correct or incorrect mappings. With this report, mapping errors can immediately be detected and video assignments corrected, ensuring that the correct students/teachers are able to view the appropriate files.
