Can you tell us about your organization and your role there?
I am the Professor and Academic Program Coordinator of the Healthcare Management program at Lynn University in Boca Raton, FL. Lynn University is a small, private university in South Florida. You can learn more about the university and our healthcare management program at www.lynn.edu.
How long have you been using the Navigate Scenarios in your courses?
I pilot-tested the Scenarios with one student in a “directed study” course that went very well. I then used it in my capstone MBA class this semester which ended on March 4, 2023.
We understand you use the Scenarios alongside the text in your courses. What motivated you to add these interactive simulations to your courses?
In the aftermath of the global pandemic, I am looking for innovative pedagogical methods to assess student learning that does not necessarily use traditional quizzes and tests. This is especially true in our MBA program. I believe simulation is the future of healthcare education, and I intend to embed ALL of the scenarios within the undergraduate/graduate curriculum.
