Weekly Discussions

Every week in weeks 3-7, Students will lead an online discussion for each of the on-site visits. Every student in the class will be required to participate in the online discussion following one of the assigned perspectives: Patient/User, Healthcare Professional, Technologist/Designer, Bioethicist, or Entrepreneur.

Student Leads and Online Discussions

Every student needs to lead an online discussion at least once during the quarter. You can select a topic by self-selecting one of the available topics listed on the visit/domain presenters below.

Discussion Prompts

Topic presenters will create the prompts for the discussion by the end of the day of the selected visit/topic. This should include at least:

2 discussion prompts based on the readings of the week. This can be anything you found interesting and/or would like to further discuss.
2 example applications relevant to the topic of the week. This can be a product, a proposal, or a research application and can include anything that was observed/discussed during the visit.

Online Discussions

Each week after the Tuesday and Thursday visit every student (except the discussion lead) will need to contribute to an online discussion on the visit/topic from a pre-assigned perspective.

You will be assigned one of the following perspectives (see assignments below) each week:

Patients or User
Healthcare Professional
Technologist / Designer
Bioethicist
Entrepreneur

To receive full credit for the online discussion, you must meaningfully respond to at least two prompts. A response should consist of at least 3 sentences and should be posted as a reply within the thread for each prompt.

You can add your own prompt by replying to the discussion as a whole for bonus points - each prompt will receive 0.5 bonus points and we will award a maximum of 1 bonus point per student per discussion. Your own prompts must be something meaningful that is not being talked about elsewhere in the discussion.

Discussion Summaries

Students who lead the discussion will need to submit a 1-page (500 words) summary of the discussion they led online.
The summary of the discussion should cover:

A summary of the readings assigned for the day
Photos that you took during the visit, and a description of what these photos represent
Anything that stood out to you from the online discussion
An overview of the example applications and a summary of the relevant aspects of the online discussion.
Conclusions and any open questions.
