UNSW Learning and Teaching Seminar 2012

W3 to W8: W3, Websites, Wikis, Who, What, Where, Why and Wait

Dr Mark Hill, School of Medical Sciences, Medicine, UNSW.

Both students and universities have embraced online educational technologies, but knowing that you have a new tool does not always mean that you know exactly how to use it. The seminar will discuss how content and students can be brought together in new and meaningful ways online. The examples I hope to share in the presentation will cover the 16 year development and evolution of UNSW online medical education resources. This presentation and additional information can be found here - http://embryology.med.unsw.edu.au/embryology/index.php?title=UNSW_Learning_and_Teaching_Seminar_2012

1975 -1995

• Image cross-section "slices" of embryos at 2 key times in early development used to show developing anatomy.
  • Prepared by colleagues within the School in association with course note descriptions.
• Canon Microfiche Reader used from 1975 to 1995 to view embryo section 49 images (7x7 matrix) in 3 sets:

1. Week 4 Embryo - Stage 13 (2012)
2. Week 8 Embryo - Stage 22 (2012)
3. Week 8 Embryo - Selected Stage 22 images (2012)

• Separate sets of labelled drawing corresponding to each section, these needed to be swapped each time with sections to view.
• Posters and teaching models (models still used today) to supported this content.

1996

Microfiche images:

1. Transferred to an internal network.
2. Then to a CDROM.
3. Then to the web.

1997 -1999

• Internet website page established with electronic versions of serial images.
  • Medical students volunteered to help with labelling of these embryo sections.
  • Class notes were edited for descriptions to accompany each section.
• Added cartoon animations to show how dynamic processes occurred (2012)
  • Collaboration with textbook author, so students could compare with textbook images.
