Session title: End of Semester Reflections and Getting Ready for the Next One
Presenter: John Durocher, PhD and Donika Rakacolli, PhD
Organizer: Marisol Lopez, PhD

This session will center around two key areas: a reflective analysis of the recently completed semester and a discussion concerning the objectives and evaluation criteria for course assignments with the goal of making them more equitable. Moderators will explore some of the best practices in both areas aiming to enhance the inclusivity and fairness of our courses for all students.

Session title: Experiential Learning for Cardiovascular and Sleep Technology
Presenter: John Durocher, PhD
Organizer: Barb Goodman, PhD, FAPS

In this session, we will review experiential learning examples for clinical exercise physiology, autonomic physiology, and sleep physiology. The corresponding author for the paper will also discuss new concepts and equipment that were added to the course in the second time that it was offered.

Throughout 2023, working groups will continue to update the more than 500 resources currently offered by the Center. These working groups are asking for your help to gather accessible, high-impact resources to add to the resource libraries. The working groups are considering resources for these current and anticipated resource libraries:

• Evidence-based teaching practices,
• Inclusive teaching,
• Teaching homeostasis,
• Physiology education research,
• Advising, and
• Physiology curriculum development at the undergraduate, graduate, and medical school levels.

Do you know a high-impact resource that would benefit physiology educators? If so, email the title and a link to the resource to APS Learning, apslearning@physiology.org for consideration. Please make sure to indicate which topic the resource addresses.

The Center needs your help developing and supporting our educator community. We are looking for a diverse group of contributors with various types of teaching experience and encourage anyone eager to learn about teaching and learning to volunteer. Even if you do not have teaching experience yet, we could use your help. Please complete the volunteer form to help us connect you with volunteer opportunities that match your interests, knowledge and passions.
