Project Portfolio

The projects (both multimedia and Web-based) listed below are representative of many projects developed by HPER Instructional Consulting & Technology Services:

GET LINKS (Gerontology Education Through Linking Into Networked Knowledge Systems): A FIPSE-Funded Project

Get Links projects A three-year grant involving more than $850,000 has been awarded to the Indiana University Center on Aging and Aged (School of HPER-affiliated center) to pursue an online, worldwide education program for professionals who work with older adults. The title of the program, GET LINKS, stands for Gerontology Education Through Linking Into Networked Knowledge Systems.

In partnership with the University of Florida and working with HPER Instructional Consulting & Technology Services (ICTS), the Center on Aging and Aged is using the funds to develop an online distributed education program (a series of 7-10 courses over the period of 3 years) for students and professionals involved in the service and care of the rapidly-growing older adult population. It will involve such fields as psychology, public health, nursing, kinesiology, sociology, and public policy and include faculty from our School, School of Education, and College of Arts and Sciences.

A total of seven courses have been developed since 2001-02. A series of assessments are being conducted to improve these units on both the pedagogical and technical levels. For a complete list of courses offered through this project, please visit http://www.indiana.edu/~getlinks


Shining a Flashlight on Teaching and Learning with Technology: School-Wide Technology Assessment Project

Lead by Dr. Craig Ross, this project is designed to foster curriculum and faculty development pertaining to technology in our School. The results will be used to shape assessment and evaluation approaches to teaching with technology in the School's curriculum. This exploratory study will involve the collection of data from undergraduate majors related to the use of technology innovations. In 2001-02, we were looking into the role that electronic communication plays in effective instructional practice in the School. Issues such as teaching and learning practice, active learning, collaborative learning, student-faculty interaction, student-to-student interaction, time on task, and project-based learning will be the key elements evaluated in this project.

A series of follow-up activities are being conducted in 2002-03. Our faculty members have completed an online technical needs assessment. Based on the survey results, we are able to offer consultation and training that better meet our faculty’s needs. A series of Teaching Seminars have been offered as a result of the survey. In addition, similar studies that survey (1) part-time instructors and AIs, and (2) graduate students will be conducted in the future.


Learning Applications and Research Tools

Evaluation

  • School-wide Distribute Education course evaluation instrument development (working with HPER DE Committee and BEST)
  • Evaluating the Instructional Impact of Different Degrees of Technology Integration in the Classroom: this study examines student learning outcomes as they relate to two different degrees of technology integration used in courses taught in the School. The information will be used to develop a better understanding of how technology is used in the classroom, especially in relation to student learning outcomes in the School of HPER.
