Instructional Grants Program - Funded Proposals
The Instructional Grants Program awards grants to fund innovative projects to improve teaching and learning at UCSF. The program combines the Instructional Improvement Projects (IIP) grants and the Instructional Technology Development (ITD) grants to fund a wide range of projects in all aspects of education.
IDS 100 - Web-Based Instructional Program Patricia G. Calarco, PhD, Associate Dean of the Graduate Division and Professor, Department of Anatomy; Douglas L. Schmucker, PhD Professor, Anatomy; School of Medicine Drs. Calarco and Schmucker will develop a web-based histology site to support an interdepartmental course in the histology of tissues and organs for first year medical students. The site will include text and figures to support both the lecture and the laboratory exercises. Critical Care Concepts and Appraisal of Research in Nursing: Adaptation of a Course to the Internet Virginia Carrieri-Kohlman, RN, DNS, FAAN, Professor, Physiological Nursing, School of Nursing Dr. Carrieri-Kohlman's goal take the existing course, N228 Critical Concepts in Nursing Practice: Scientific Foundations & Clinical Implications, and introduce an experimental approach to the instructional content and process, by offering the course via the Web. Lectures will be combined with an interactive research appraisal or critique process performed by the students. Web-based Interactive Clinical Oral Health Research Modules Stuart Gansky, PhD, Assistant Adjunct Professor, Dental Public Health & Hygiene, School of Dentistry Dr. Gansky will develop a web-based, interactive graduate level course on clinical research methods, consisting of 5-8 self-paced modules, using oral health examples. Video Production of Tooth Cavity Preparations through a Surgical Microscope David A. Graham, DDS, Clinical Professor, Restorative Dentistry, School of Dentistry Dr. Graham will use a high resolution surgical microscope with build in video camera to make live movies of tooth cavity preparations for almalgam fillings for human teeth. These videotapes will be used to help first year dental students prepare for actual cavity preparation labs. Midas Movie 2.0: Instructive Visualization of Molecular Motion David E. Konerding, Graduate Student, Graduate Group in Biophysics The MidasMovie 2.0 tool enables the instructive visualization of molecular motion. Mr. Konerding is building a graphical user interface to simplify the use of this tool by students and faculty. He is also developing a web-based tutorial that incorporates use of the tool. Multimedia Instruction for Tissue Structures Randall H. Kramer, PhD, Professor, Anatomy and Stomatology, School of Dentistry Dr. Kramer seeks to supplement the use of microscopes and traditional histological slides by creating a digital collection of images for use during lab and for independent study. A Convenient Distance-Learning Faculty Development Program for WOS Faculty Kenneth W. Lem, PharmD, Lecturer and Associate Dean for Educational Affairs, Clinical Pharmacy, School of Pharmacy This project will initate a more formal faculty development program for its approximately 500 without salar (WOS) clinical faculty members. A series of 30-minute presentations will be developed and recorded on videotape for distribution to WOS faculty across the state. Innovations in Small Group Faculty Development at UCSF Pamela Martin, MD, Associate Director, Medical Student Education, Psychiatry; Jessica Muller, PhD, Associate Director Predoctoral Program, Family and Community Medicine Drs. Martin and Muller will design, implement, and evaluate a faculty development program for small group leaders that will focus on issues involved in leading small groups for the two-year Foundations of Patient Care course in the School of Medicine. Dynamic 3-D Visualization of Drugs and their Interaction with Receptors Richard H. Shafer, PhD, Professor, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, School of Pharmacy The objective of this project is to introduce dynamic 3-D visualization of molecular structures into the Pharmacy professional student curriculum. Using the freeware program, CHIME, Dr. Shafer will configure animations of drug-macromolecule interactions to complement his course lectures and labs. Students can access the CHIME animations via the Web from home or in the campus computer labs. Developing a Multimedia Primary Care Core Curriculum for Distance Education Diana Taylor, RN, PhD, Associate Professor and Ellen Scarr, RN, MS, Assistant Clinical Professor, Family Health Care Nursing, School of Nursing A core course in primary care that can be delivered to students in Fresno will be developed using distance learning technologies. Videotaped Case Presentations to Facilitate Differential Diagnosis by Physical Therapy Students Kimberly S. Topp, PT, PhD< Assistant Professor, Graduate Program in Physical Therapy Dr. Topp will develop a series of videotaped patient/therapist interview case studies. These cases will be used to teach students to determing the possible causes of the presenting pathology, to recognize neuromusculoskeletal dysfunctions appropriate for treatment by a PT, and to determine the need for medical referral. UCSF Medlinks: School of Medicine Instructional Links Web Site Minang Pravin Turakhia, 2nd Year Medical Student The goal of this project is to create a UCSF-based website that serves as a comprehensive directory of high quality medical instructional websites for use by UCSF students. The Development of a Course Curriculum to Improve Medical Student Oral Communication Skills Jeff Wiese, MD, General Internal Medicine and Terrie Mendelson, MD, Medical Education Fellow, VAMC This pilot project will teach oral communication skills to third and fourth year medical students rotating through the VA medical service. The course will use videotapes of senior residents and weekly seminars to cover this material. Develoing a Multimedia Self-teaching Course in Dermatology for its Primary Care Patients Mary L. Williams, MD, Adjunct Professor; Marc Goldyne, MD, Professor in Residence; Craig Miller Md, PhD, Dermatology Fellow; Dermatology This project will convert existing case-based lectures to an interactive multimedia, self-education format on CD. This new format will enable primary care residents to access this material which was previously available only when lecturers' schedules permitted.
