Abstract

The North American Network of Science Labs Online (NANSLO) has developed 27 remote web-based NANSLO lab activities for biology, chemistry, and allied health courses as part of the U.S. Department of Labor Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training (TAACCCT) grant. Students access these lab activities through the Internet and perform experimentation using robotics connected to scientific equipment and controlled through the NANSLO web-based interface. Institutions reserve times for students to complete assigned NANSLO lab activities and students access the lab activity at a time selected by them through the NANSLO Network Scheduling System. The NANSLO team presented updates on the work completed to date as part of this grant. Albert Balbon, NANSLO British Columbia Lab and supervisor of distributed learning, North Island College; Farah Bennani, CHEO allied health curriculum lead, WICHE, and chair of online learning for math, science, allied health, and psychology, Front Range Community College; PJ Bennett, lab director, NANSLO Colorado lab, Colorado Community College System; Brenda Canine, lab manager, NANSLO Montana lab, Great Falls College Montana State University, and adjunct faculty, microbiology and chemistry, GFCMSU; Kate Lormand, CHEO biology curriculum lead, WICHE, and adjunct faculty, biology, CCCOnline and Great Falls College Montana State University; and Sue Schmidt, NANSLO/CHEO project coordinator, WICHE, presented this information to faculty working on the Consortium for Healthcare Education Online project at the CHEO Discipline Panel Faculty Professional Development Workshop – By Design: Taking ALL Allied Health Students Across the Finish Line, on May 14, 2015. The event was hosted by the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) and was held at its SHEPC Learning Center in Boulder, CO. The CHEO project is funded by a U.S. Department of Labor Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training (TAACCCT) grant.
