Using an app to teach skills

Jose Milan, PTA, M.Ed. Faculty member and Department Chair of the Physical Therapist Assistant Program approached the Instructional Web team with an idea to make an app for students to quickly access videos for the skills taught in the program. Unlike Blackboard, with the app, students could continue to reference the skill videos in subsequent semesters. According to Jose, “Students have told me that it is a more efficient way to get to the videos than logging into Bb, navigate to the unit, and then click on a link. It works well on all their devices.”
