The UHOIC team shared updates and latest news with the rest of the IT Services department for an internal ITS Talks presentation on April 14, titled “UHOIC and the Latest Quest Towards Excellence in Online Teaching & Learning.” We had a blast as we talked about the launch of our new website, our professional learning & development opportunities, and our UH Online 5-Week PD Program and Quality Course Review process.
Using an interactive game-based tool called Nearpod, we were able to actively engage with those present. Nearpod interactives were used such as polls and a Time to Climb game where participants chose a cute animal avatar and competed to answer questions correctly and quickly to reach the top of a mountain with the highest score.
Congratulations to Alan, Michael, and Diana (Di-Di) for finishing with the highest scores, and mahalo to everyone for participating!
