Simulations, Outreach And Health Sciences Libraries: A Triple Play For Success, Linda J. Walton, Amy Blevins, Chris Childs, Sarah Andrews, Jennifer Deberg
Simulations, Outreach And Health Sciences Libraries: A Triple Play For Success, Linda J. Walton, Amy Blevins, Chris Childs, Sarah Andrews, Jennifer Deberg
Jennifer DeBerg
Purpose: Our library staff has been partnering with faculty to develop curricula using simulation equipment for various outreach programs to youth in the state. The simulation center is housed and managed by our library. This presentation will recount the development and expansion of this two-year old program and describe its various components. The programs are aimed at grades 5-12 to stimulate interest in science and health care professions through engagement and participation in a variety of interactive educational sessions using simulation equipment, such as eye exams, neurological/cognitive assessments, and cardiac rhythm evaluation. Methods: The focus of the paper will be …

Purpose: The purpose of this poster is to demonstrate the value of having a best practices working group to explore software programs and develop policies and procedures for the creation of online instructional materials. In addition, we would like to emphasize the importance of partnering with the other libraries within a University or other organization to share ideas and avoid duplication of effort. Methods: In order to determine the best software for creating tutorials, the University libraries put together a taskforce to investigate Jing, Panopto, Camtasia and Captivate. After deciding which products to purchase and support, a new team formed …

This poster will examine the importance of networking public libraries with community hospitals for quality consumer health programming. The University of Iowa partnered with five communities in Iowa to provide a training program on patient safety for consumers. The project, Empowering Public Health / Patient Safety Outreach through Community was funded through a subcontract with the National Network of Libraries of Medicine Greater Midwest Region. Presenters will describe the planning process, collaborative partnerships, and challenges encountered.

Interest in integrative health care is a growing area of health practice, combining conventional medical treatments with safe and effective complementary and alternative medicine. These modalities relate to both improving physical and psychological well-being, and enhancing conventional talk therapy. In an interdisciplinary collaboration, teaching and library faculty have created a series of sixteen on-line video interviews that introduce practitioner-relevant experiences to students as supplemental course material. These videos are available through the department web-pages to students in other related disciplines as well, including Social Work, Counselor Education, Psychology, and the Colleges of Public Health, Nursing, and Medicine. The video series …

Distributed sensing systems for studying scientific phenomena are critical applications of information technologies. By embedding computational intelligence in the environment of study, sensing systems allow researchers to study phenomena at spatial and temporal scales that were previously impossible to achieve. We present an ethnographic study of field research practices among researchers in the Center for Embedded Networked Sensing (CENS), a National Science Foundation Science & Technology Center devoted to developing wireless sensing systems for scientific and social applications. Using the concepts of boundary objects and trading zones, we trace the processes of collaborative research around sensor technology development and adoption …
