Diane: My presentation is "Apple of My Eye
"Clinical Instruction Enhanced by
"Bug-in-the-Eye Technology."
Caleb: The technology is way more advanced.
Matthew: I think we have a pretty good solution
to helping technology become more invisible.
Nicole: Once we get the hang of it,
it was really subtle.
[lively music]
Diane: It was a very professional, comfortable,
collegial environment.
And so even though it's labelled "Sharks,"
I did not feel that, you know, I was bait.
I've actually been at Minnesota State Mankato
for 30 years, and over that time,
our lab has continued to grow and develop
because I've continued to stay engaged with
individuals from IT
who helped me really realize my dreams.
Matthew: Getting this grant means a lot to us
because it allows us to take huge leaps in technology
that would normally maybe take us a few years
to try and get the money together to do.
Diane: Before the Shark Tank funding,
the way my lab looked,
students are practicing skills.
Caleb: In our last session, we talked about stress...
Diane: In those rooms, students would have to put a device
on their ear and have a pack on their side.
Caleb: When I put it in my ear,
it's very uncomfortable in my ear
physically but also, you know, being able to hear the feedback
and hear the static.
When it comes to you
talking about how you're suffocating with...
Diane: Caleb?
Caleb: All the different aspects...
Diane: I need to make sure you understand that you have...
Caleb: Of your life.
Diane: To hear the whole triangle.
Caleb: I felt myself having to adjust it
multiple times on my ear,
then also adjust it while it's sitting in my lap
because we do have, like, a battery pack.
So it's just very distracting to both of us.
Heather: I felt like I wasn't being heard,
and I felt that he was distracted
and kind of focusing on what was going on with his earbud
rather than focusing on what I was saying.
Caleb: Because I want to get the feedback immediately
from my professor,
however, I'm also wanting to be 100% present with my client.
Diane: That's really what motivated me
to begin to think about, is there another way
that I can guide them?
We went from that kind of a scenario
to the Apple Watch scenario,
where now my student counsellors walk into the room
and they simply have a piece of jewelry on their wrist.
They have an Apple Watch,
and clients don't question that.
People don't wonder about that.
They just assume it's a watch.
And therefore, it has the ability
to be far less obtrusive.
- It's just a little vibration,
so it's nice because it's not as noticeable
as, like, a sound or something like that,
and it's a way to get, you know, a short little message
saying, you know, "Try this, remember this."
Diane: Well, perhaps more guiding to them
and give them a sense of security
that the client in the room doesn't really know
they're being guided.
- I'd say the best feature is that immediacy that you get.
Diane: We were able to secure watches
for both the client and the counsellor.
Clients will be able to touch their Apple Watch
and get their heart rate immediately.
Nicole: And just seeing these techniques affect you
in the moment so that you can apply that.
Diane: The students that are counsellors
are getting immediate feedback that they've had
immediate impact on a client.
And we are required to teach our students
how to measure outcome;
how did your counselling have an effect?
We were able to get Apple Watches and iPads.
The iPads are used as a formative assessment tool,
and every student is involved in the assessment process,
where they evaluate each other.
What feedback would you have for Taylor?
- Just digging a little deeper into her feelings.
Heather: Getting the feedback faster
has served me well,
and I'm able to just kind of get it back right away;
I can read it right away.
Diane: The more immediate feedback can be provided
to students,
the better the learning.
Matthew: We're giving our students wonderful access
to technology they're gonna use the second they walk out
of this institution.
