Navigator
2002 - present
Back to Projects and Programs
The Navigator Learning Management system is a web-based application where educators use a suite of integrated online teaching and learning tools such as course management, quizzes, and blogs to enhance the four-year medical student curriculum. This website encompasses all School of Medicine courses and clerkships, as well as a number of resident and postgraduate training programs. The Lab for Educational Technology developed, implemented, maintains, and provides support for the Navigator system.
The Lab has taken on the project of a vast overhaul of the Navigator LMS. A survey was taken in the fall of 2010 to assess the opinions of the current medical students. The survey consisted of multiple choice and open text questions that ranged from look and feel to the technological performance of the LMS. Currently, the Lab’s programmers are honing a user friendly interface, and new functionality that will, for example, allow students to view courses they are currently in rather than all courses that are available to them. The lab expects the first round of updates to be complete for the 2011-2012 academic year.
