recording equipment in THE studio

THE Studio is spending the summer getting ready for autumn. Collaborators are continuing to test the environment, while EdTech Incubator steering committee members are documenting processes and best practices. The lightboard has been installed and backdrops are being adjusted for a seamless experience.

Watch for info about scheduling time in THE Studio in the coming months! As always, if you have questions about the space, scheduling or curriculum integration, email eti@osumc.edu.

Visitors to the 4th floor of Prior Hall will now immediately notice the EdTech Incubator. That's because stunning environmental graphics heralding the ETI's presence have been installed.

It wasn't easy: the entire process took about 6 months of painstaking design and measurements, and the installation itself took almost two days.

On February 8, Bundle of Rays founder, Bradley Chesham, and associate, Craig Frehlich, toured the EdTech Incubator spaces. Chesham and Frehlich were introduced to the technology efforts here at Ohio State and the ETI through the College of Nursing.

Chesham is a thought leader in virtual reality (VR) education in nursing, and offers consultation on the integration of extended reality (XR) into health education programs around the world. Frehlich is an XR instructional design expert and influencer on LinkedIn.

At The Ohio State University College of Medicine annual education symposium (AES) in January, attendees got to experience EdTech Incubator 3D printing and VR demonstrations, as well as talk to the experts in those technologies.

The focus of AES 2023 was "post-pandemic pedagogy for health sciences education." In addition to ETI demonstrations, AES included research poster presentations as well as other breakout topics focused on teaching and learning.
