Kaizen: A Gamification Platform for Academic and Patient Education

When: Tuesday, November 13, 10 a.m.-1 p.m.
Where: OSU CCTS, 240 Prior Hall
Join CON faculty member Carolynn Thomas Jones and her colleagues from University of Alabama at Birmingham to learn about Kaizen, a gamification platform for teaching and learning.  Kaizen has been used in academic programs in public health and nursing, including our own MACPR courses where students learn about clinical research quality management.  If you’ve been considering integrating an element of gamification in your course, find out if this platform might be just what you need.

An invitation from MACPR faculty member, Carolynn Thomas Jones:

On Tuesday, November 13 (10-1pm ET), members of the CCTS at the University of Alabama at Birmingham are going to join faculty from the CON MACPR program to present the use of gamification for academic learning, training, and patient education. The game platform was developed by James Willig, MD at UAB for the purpose of educating interns and residents in the UAB internal medicine program via a gamification platform he has named Kaizen. It was a huge success with intensive engagement and a marked increase in board scores. Since that time, this gamification platform has been used for multiple academic programs in public health and nursing academic education, to train rigor, responsibility and transparency to translational scientists. It has also been used in nursing for patient education. Carolynn Jones and Penny Jester have used it in one of the MACPR Courses addressing clinical research quality management and are currently working on a Kaizen game for GCP training under a UAB CCTS supplement award. If you are interested in learning about this platform and toying with the idea of gamification in your courses or nursing applications, please RSVP by email to Terri Ryan at theresa.ryan@osumc.edu. We will be meeting at the OSU CCTS- Room 240 Prior.

Health Sciences Library Seeking Focus Group Participants

The following information comes to us from Kerry DhakalAssistant Professor and Research and Education Librarian at the Health Sciences Library:

As significant transformations to campus health sciences spaces get underway, the Health Sciences Library is taking a look at its own spaces and services, looking for ways to best meet our customers’ needs in this changing landscape. To that end, we are reaching out to the populations that we serve, inviting students, faculty, and staff in the health sciences, to participate in informal focus group sessions throughout the month of November. Sessions are planned as follows.
  • Nov. 27, 5-6 pm: Students
  • Nov. 28, noon to 1 pm: Basic science faculty
  • Nov. 28, 5 -6 pm: Clinical faculty and staff

We’d like to learn more about your workflows, barriers to your success, and how library spaces play or could play a role in overcoming those barriers. Help us improve library spaces and services by registering for one of our three group sessions. All sessions will be held in Prior Hall room 200. Refreshments will be provided.

Space is limited to 10 participants per session and RSVP is required. Register at https://osu.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3qFUD0rLpazxFPfIf you’d like to provide comments on the topic of library space but are not able to participate in a focus group, please use the registration form and follow the prompts for not being able to attend. Any questions may be directed to Stephanie Schulte, Stephanie.schulte@osumc.edu, Head, Research and Education Services, Health Sciences Library.
