Cheating and OLab data
Borealis
Topps, David; Cullen, Michelle; Wirun, Corey — 2024-02-09 OpenLabyrinth has always had very detailed tracking of user activity built into its back end. In the early days, we wondered if we would ever use such detailed activity metrics to any great extent but it has turned out to be useful in many ways. A surprising side effect was its utility in detecting unusual behavior and cheating. We will provide some interesting examples of this, and also illustrate some methods in OLab that can be used to prevent, detect and research cheating behaviors.

James
Borealis
Morrison, Melanie; White, Hailey; Cullen, Michelle; Topps, David — 2022-06-06 Borderline personality disorder and DBT Welcome to today's scenario. We will again be using a virtual patient to explore some issues in mental health communications. The cases will work best for you if treat this virtual patient as you would a real patient. This case study includes content related to mental illness and addcitions. Sometimes these discussions can trigger unresolved personal experiences. If you need support please reach out to your family, physician, local ditress center, or if this is an emergency please go to your local emergecy department. James is a 30 year old male. Throughout his twenties he struggled to keep a job for longer than a couple months. James has also had one prior admission to an acute mental health unit for a failed suicide attempt. He had tried to hang himself from the garage ceiling using a belt, but his partner at the time found him after getting home from work and cut him down. It was noted that during this prior admission, James shared several different stories about why he tried to kill himself with the healthcare team. He had also threatened to report the nursing staff to the unit manager if they did not meet his needs and frequently engaged in self-harm behaviors on the unit. These behaviors included cutting his forearms with a razor and banging his head when he became emotionally dysregulated. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/

Branching case creation
Borealis
Topps, David; Cullen, Michelle; Ellaway, Rachel — 2022-01-10 In our various materials on creating good learning designs in OLab, we have spoken much about branching narratives in case designs. The ability to create such branching designs is a powerful feature of OLab but not all authors make good use of this capability. The important principle that we try to convey is about decisions and consequences. Real life is not like a quiz: if you make the wrong choice, there is no little man who jumps out of the bushes with a wee red flag to tell you that you made the wrong choice. You have to live with the consequences of your decision. This is certainly not a hard concept to grasp. But it is harder to incorporate into your scenario design. So here are a few examples to consider when trying to adopt this approach: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/

OLabERATE: OLab Education Research Analytics Toolset Expansion - project charter
Borealis
Wirun, Corey; Cullen, Michelle; Radhamoni, Nisha; Shrive, Nigel; Wigglesworth, Tony; El Hardoum, Ismail; Hosseini, Mahdi; Topps, David — 2022-10-21 OLab (https://olab.ca) is an educational research platform that supports branching scenarios and activity metrics. Case designs can be varied, with embedded videos and natural-language support, to explore problem-solving and communication skills, rather than memorization. A recent analysis of OLab metrics showed a rich combination of learner interactivity. However, complex decision pathways are difficult to analyze and improve, both with the existing platform and with traditional approaches that have tried to assess them in clinical practice and examinations. OLab’s central design architecture is based on directed acyclical graphs (DAGs). DAG-based analytic tools are available in a number of disciplines including social sciences (structural equation modeling), engineering (hyperparameter optimization) and computer science (genetic algorithms) but they tend to assume a best-practice or optimum path. We need a more flexible toolset that allows assessment of ‘good enough’ choice pathways in a multi-step complex decision process. Previous assessment practices have treated professional decisions as single point events. This project will improve accessibility for case authors, with shareable, reusable components; redirectable narratives; and communication skills assessment in a team-based learning context. Integration of OLab with DAG-based analytic tools will extend the analytic capabilities of researchers who wish to explore and optimize complex decision pathways, and how well clinical professionals navigate these

OLabERATE: Utility of Help Guides
Borealis
Hosseini, Mahdi; Cullen, Michelle; El Hardoum, Ismail; Wirun, Corey; Topps, David — 2023-07-05 Some of the concepts and functions that we are advancing in the OLabERATE project(1) are initially confusing for teachers and learners. While they are not hard to figure out, there is a lot to take in all at once and many users are overwhelmed at first. In several of the class sessions in the OLabERATE project,(1) we noticed a wide variation in how well participants were prepared and how quickly they adapted to TTalk and OLab etc. There is also a wide variation in how participants want to get help. More and more, we see that short videos are preferred, even though most of us can read faster than we can watch. Videos, with their linear delivery, may be less amenable to random access, but they remain the preferred route for many. Increasingly in our projects, we have found that providing how-to guides and user documents via a variety of modalities is helpful. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/
