ANGEL Learning: Enhancing Quality Instruction at Medical School

1/12/2006

Share, Collaborate, & Communicate with Student Groups
KUMC will use ANGEL to provide communication and collaboration outside of regular courses. We will provide a community group for each of our medical school classes. TLT will train administrative assistants and program coordinators to post and link content in this space instead of using a mailbox to hand out flyers and announcements. This content can be Word documents, PDF documents, PowerPoint presentations, as well as other media types. The space also will house a shared calendar, a place to post announcements and questionnaires, and a forum to discuss issues related to their year in medical school.
Conclusion
KUMC selected ANGEL for the diversity of solutions it provides for course delivery and support, collaboration, and curriculum sharing. We have found the company to be learner-centered and willing to listen to customer suggestions to improve the product. Their technical support has been very responsive. We also have found a wonderful grassroots support system and formed rich collaborations with other ANGEL institutions. Our faculty and staff are excited about ANGEL Learning and how it will enhance quality learning at the University of Kansas Medical Center.


Darrin Cheney (dcheney@kumc.edu) is the Director of Teaching and Learning Technologies at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, KS.
