Message to all participants:

Thank you for your interest, and taking time to attend each day's interactive sessions. I am greatly looking forward to spending time with all of you at KazNMU; meeting you, and having in-depth discussions with you all.

May I please request that the participants who are attending the Thursday May 14th, Friday May 15th and Monday May 18th session all complete the pre-session Survey Monkey short online survey latest one day before coming to the session (for Thursday embedded on the presentation webpage, for Friday and the following Monday embedded as a hyperlink within the pre-session instructions for participants). 

May I also please request that all the participants who are attending complete each pre-session's short 250 word assignment, and post this up on the Padlet wall for the session latest one day before the session. 

This will not only give me a better understanding of the background and needs of the audience for each day, but will also allow us to build on background knowledge, have a more in depth discussion, and use the time for in-session interactive activities. 

May I please request that the participants for each day all bring along their personal Wi-Fi enabled laptop computer (or tablet computer).



Undergraduate radiology teaching (Thursday, May 14th, 2015)

Pre-reading and Pre-session assignment




(Please read [above] the proposal for introducing the "Flipped Classroom" into medical education, followed by a letter to the editor above critiquing this approach. An example of a commentary supporting this also follows - please review comments on this piece also. Please write a short 250 word maximum personal reaction, and post this (as an additional post) on the Padlet wall for the session below, together with a brief description of your teaching experience, current teaching responsibilities, and a short 250 word maximum proposal of how you intend to use the flipped classroom methodology in your teaching setting.

Personal reflection by program faculty/instructor-facilitator-coach (on May 21st, 0500am) by Goh Poh Sun

"When I met Professor Akanov, Rector of KazNMU for a second time yesterday, with Farida and Rustam, I expressed my personal and professional happiness and satisfaction with this training program. Using a statement familiar to many educators - see one, do one and teach one - it is evident (there is clear evidence) that the participants who attended this program very quickly and effectively were able to not only "do", with all participants creating their own teaching websites, we were also able to observe participants effectively start teaching each other, to raise the performance of all participants. Observing the "products"/websites of each participant, seeing the improvement in design and content provided on each website, each day; as we spent a series of days repeatedly working on and improving each website, has given me enormous assurance and confidence that the teaching faculty at KazNMU are able to not only implement, and adopt many of the ideas presented in this teaching program, but also share this knowledge and skill with other teachers who have not attended this program, and develop these ideas further."

Further reflection on program (on May 22nd and 23rd, 2015) by Goh Poh Sun

"I believe the success of the program was due to the confluence of a series of factors:

1. strong institutional leadership and commitment at KazNMU
2. a lot of effort planning the program
3. selecting the participants, who were identified as some of the best teachers at KazNMU, who have teaching experience, and commitment to teaching and learning (with a wide variety of backgrounds)
4. local logistic and technical support;
5. which included providing a skilled Russian translator (who has a medical background and is a teacher at KazNMU) for each day's sessions, to allow English to Russian and Russian to English translation
6. the possibility of scheduling a few consecutive days for faculty to each build their own website, design their program, and help/teach other teachers; 
7. including providing time each morning and afternoon for faculty to reflect on the material presented each day, and work on their websites, as well as help each other and work together; 
8. and which also allowed the presentation of a series of daily morning and afternoon session competency targets, whose achievement by each participant was visible on the digital interactive Padlet walls embedded in the presentation website
9. passion and commitment during the time spent designing the actual teaching program, for around 6 weeks daily before the program, including having access to a digital repository of content, to allow dynamic day to day, and "live" customisation of the program, including the possibility of providing illustrations for each of the questions raised during day to day discussion and Q and A sessions; as well as commitment and passion expressed each day during the presentation and interactive discussion segments in the morning and afternoon
10. experience giving similar workshops and teaching sessions, as well as symposia in many settings, locally and internationally, with diverse audiences; over the last 5 years; as well as local experience over the last 3 years working with many clinical and allied health departments on the Learning@NUHS digital repository project; together with experience gained in previous and current departmental and institutional clinical, and academic/educational leadership roles since 1994 
11. experience developing eLearning programs since 2002, and presenting our experience in local, regional and international conferences twice yearly since 2003 - this allowed the presentation of key ideas of "why" use technology, and discussion of the principles of educational pedagogy; together with recommendations of simple, easy to use and robust EduTech solutions and platforms, which have been personally validated
12. formal training as a medical educator, with the Maastricht MHPE program (2009-2012); and experience over the last three years developing my PhD proposal for a program of educational research - covering the continuum of undergraduate, through postgraduate, to lifelong learning settings in medical education; evaluating the use of technology enhanced learning with modular eLectures and interactive tutorials, supported by a hyperlinked online indexed digital repository, to support and facilitate training for competency, proficiency, expert performance and mastery."






A key part when planning an educational program is to design and plan an evaluation process prospectively, from the very outset. When coupled with an audience engagement and participation process similar to this series of interactive educational sessions at KazNMY, there is also an opportunity for educational scholarship - to make the educational process public, available for peer review and feedback, as a means of promoting self-reflection and metacognition, as well as to demonstrate evidence of scholarly teaching.

This presentation website/blog illustrates both the audience engagement and participation process. The instructional purpose was to illustrate and demonstrate principles of the "Flipped Classroom", as well as use of Technology to "Enhance" Learning.

May I request each participant who has attended these interactive daily sessions to complete the short Survey Monkey post-session(s) feedback form. This short survey is intended to provide anonymous feedback regarding your perceptions of the quality of the educational material, the effectiveness of the online audience engagement process, the quality of the face to face presentations and audience interaction/discussion, and the overall impact you feel attending these educational programs might have for your educational activities at KazNMU; by using a very simple 5 point Likert scale for each four questions - from 1 to 5, with 1 = poor quality; 2 = average quality; 3 = good quality/impact; 4 = very good quality/impace; 5 = outstanding quality/impact.

May I also request each participant to write a short note and post it on the Padlet wall below briefly stating what each of you found most useful about each day's session; what you feel could be improved; and finally ideas and a proposal of post-session educational initiatives and projects that you intend to explore and implement soon after these sessions.
