Scheduling and Use Guidelines

For Faculty

You can use large-group training spaces for faculty development and student seminars/workshops outside an academic unit's standard scheduled curriculum. For example, appropriate events include enrichment seminars on information acquisition and management, case-based learning, clinical problem-solving, and/or interprofessional education.

Small-group study rooms are for small student or faculty groups participating in problem-based learning or case-based learning, or any team-based learning, especially if information and resource acquisition is important to the success of the project. Small group and individual space may be used by faculty — with or without the support of instructional design, Web design, or library support personnel — to develop course materials such as technology-enhanced learning.

For Students

Students are welcome to use the AHC Learning Commons to practice such skills as clinical decision-making, evidence-based practice, information acquisition and management, and applications of various technologies to support such learning. We invite you to use small-group rooms — each equipped with a computer and Web access — for specific assignments such as case-based or problem-based learning. Computers and PDAs are available for you to learn about tools such as OVID Medline, PubMed, RefWorks, PowerPoint and educational software.
