E.Flo MD calendar navigation tip
As a student, you live by your calendar and are likely quite familiar with the Dashboard calendar in E.Flo MD. We’d like to let you know a handy little tip you may not know—it may save your fingers some extra clicking in the long run!
The Anatomy of a Learning Event
Learning Events are made up of sections, each communicating a different type of information.
The Sections, Explained
Abstracts (also called Event Descriptions) are typically one to three sentences that give a brief overview of the Learning Event. See an example below:
The session Demographics can be found on the right side of the page. If you notice inaccurate information in this section, please contact the Curriculum Team.
Instructors are found in the session demographics. Note that the instructors’ names are blue links. Click on an Instructor’s name to show their profile information, including an e-mail address and office hours (if posted). Click here for more information about E.Flo MD profiles.
This box can be used to describe any required activities related to the Learning Event.
This box is used to communicate optional preparation (like readings) and extra information related to the session.
Event resources are items that have been created or discovered by the instructor and are to be utilized by students. These items can be files, links, or free-text suggested reading descriptions. Resources may be designated to be used at different times. Items that are Time-Released appear black with information on when it will become available.
On the Learning Event page, click or tap on the Plus icon to expand an objective to see how it is mapped throughout the curriculum. Click or tap on the Minus icon to collapse an objective.
My Agenda
My Agenda was created to be an agenda view of the student dashboard calendar. Watch the video below and notice:
-
- My Agenda includes all events that are on your dashboard calendar. You can choose a Day/week/month view and move forward or backward in time, just like on the calendar.
- Session characteristics—if the session is required/optional and synchronous/ asynchronous/on-campus—will be indicated on the left side of the Agenda view.
- Faculty names and images are visible on the Agenda view, so it’s easy to see who is delivering that session.
- Click on the Down arrow to the right of a session to view the Session description and to access Event resources.
- Assignments are layered in with the events according to their due date and will indicate if you have turned in a file or not.
