Academic Technlogies is thrilled to share Ana E. Campo-Bowen, M.D. Associate Professor and Assistant Dean for Student Services is this year’s recipient of the George Paff Teaching Award at University of Miami's Miller School of Medicine, through exploring new blended approaches, and lightboard technology within a neurosceiences course.
For the neurosciences course that the department of psychiatry teaches to first year medical students, Dr. Ana Campo’s eleven lecture hours (depression, bipolar, treatment of depression, treatment of bipolar, suicide, eating disorders, normal growth / development, and autism) were converted into three online learning modules, where blended learning approaches and lightboard technology were used.
Students commended Dr. Campo on her innovation, creativity and willingness to step outside of the traditional lecture-type setting within the psychiatry aspect of their neuroscience course. The George Paff Teaching Awards are named in honor of George Paff, Ph.D., one of UMMSM’s founding faculty members. In his honor, students in each class present “Paff Awards” to faculty they consider the most inventive and inspirational teachers. This year, Dr. Campo was chosen as a Paff award recipient by nomination of the student body.
Through partnering with Senior Instructional Designer, David Green throughout the course re-design process, Dr. Campo kindly shared: “I couldn’t have done any of this without David’s help and guidance. The project turned out even better than I ever anticipated!.”
Anonymous student feedback in their nomination: “Dr. Campo has been so wonderful, patient, and supportive to our class. She's dependable, transparent, and flexible. We're so lucky to have her as a professor, dean, and advisor.”
