Get to know Osmosis: Demonstration and Q&A July 12, 2023

So hello everyone. My name is Karin Tarantino and I am a product market manager at also here for the North America market in the US.
And I am based out of California. Although right now I'm speaking to you from Michigan out of town right now.
But it's really nice to be here with you all this afternoon and talk to you a little bit about osmosis. I've been osmosis for a couple of years now and you, you can get to make some of these videos a few years back which it's very exciting to see how much we've grown.
If there are any questions gel is my cohost here. She's able to monitor the chat and bring up any Q and A at the end.
Feel free to unmute yourself, ask any questions. I would love to tailor this a little bit more to whoever's in the room.
Feel free to also share if you want to share where you're from in the chat or what you do, what types of schools or programs you're part of that would be great.
We love to have conversations while we are presenting. So with that, I will get started this is a very basic depth of kind of what it looks like to teach and learn with osmosis.
I'm gonna go through a quick powerpoint presentation and then get right into the demo, which after this, you'll be able to have demo counts yourselves and play around with osmosis.
The little bit that we always start with is what guides us, our vision mission and values. We really do care about helping everyone who cares some, someone learn by osmosis and make it the best learning experience possible.
And in order to do this, we really want to live out our values every day with having each other's backs. And then that goes into our institutional partners by having your backs and helping you reach further and spread joy.
We have an amazing institutional account management team who loves to just really connect with all of our learners, faculty and students and help make your experience as seamless as possible.
So here's a very quick osmosis uh overview. It really is designed to enhance the learning and clinical reasoning experience for students.
So this is a classic screenshot of one of our learned pages which I'll show you later. It's an approach to chest pain, clinical sciences video.
That's what you can see on the top. Every single video has a very clear multivenia design principles.
I'll talk about that in just a minute. It has bite size whiteboard style videos.
So this is whiteboard style if someone's writing on a whiteboard, but it's all written out text. Every video is made by medical illustrators to make sure that this is medically accurate.
And students are then able to really learn step by step through the process of every single type of topic inside osmosis which covers most of the medical school curriculum.
The content is all available via closed captioning at the bottom. Here there on this page, it's a Clinical Sciences video which are a new type of series.
We have, we have clinical decision making trees. Sometimes you also see under here high yield notes.
So these are P DFS that student can look at maybe take notes on really understand better how it fits with the video. It's a nice review and recap.
There are speed controls. A lot of students actually love to speed up how they're learning.
And then we have over here linked us and la style assessment items. So every assessment item is complete with clinical learning content and as everything in a patient presentation and then it links it to what they've just learned.
We create learning objectives for all of our videos. So our new clinical science videos actually have them listed right here.
So you always see an assessment item linked to one of those learning objectives to really make sure that students are reinforcing what they should have learned in the video.
All of our clinical science videos all have evidence based guidelines attached as you can see everything about this learned page is really designed to make it easy to see what to learn and how to learn.
We'll talk about this a little bit more. All the evidence based learning principles that I mentioned the content chunking.
So we always start a video from start to finish of the topic. And we try to make these condensed aiming around 10 minutes or so per video, make sure that the anywhere you start, you can start on a video and you can learn a complete topic.
And it's quite easy to go through the design principles. As I mentioned with having medical illustrators design.
These, these are also very easy videos. As you see, we make, I have a cartoon style that reduces that cognitive load modes, that development of schema formation and makes it much easier and simpler and more fun for students to go through.
And more of this hard, all of our flashcards are built in a space recognition. So the more they need to repeat it, they will see it more often because they're getting it wrong.
But the easier it is for them, the longer out it will be the testing effect. We really promote continuous low stakes exam prep.
So just doing questions repeatedly, we have a large question bank and quiz builder. And we also have as you see the videos.
So questions associated every time. So they can really practice.
What is it like to test every single day and improve that performance. So testing becomes a little bit easier.
We also have a collection of learning science videos which a lot of faculty really like at the beginning of a course or orientation, we they can incorporate these learning science videos.
So students can actually learn the science of learning, everyone's coming into medicine, learning a lot of information for the first time, it can be quite challenging.
But every single learning science video can help those students really orient to the challenging process of relearning. Kind of.
Now as a medical student, we have all these engaging videos on two different main topic sections with basic science videos which are generally used for those first two years of learning and the clinical sciences videos that you saw before which are primarily were used for the clerkship.
So everyone in the clinical sciences sections are actually based on national clerkship guidelines and curricula and all the latest evidence based guidelines.
It's geared towards that first time clinical learner. So as they're appearing as they're going through patients, how to get through the decision making, either from an approach to patient presentation or an approach to a disease.
All of the assessment items are linked just to the videos directly as you saw before. And then as you mentioned, there are high yield notes which are featured here on the righthand side of the screen.
It's just a very quick review sheet and then on the left is the clinical decision making trees. And we also have evidence-based guidelines like out to make it really easy to close that one.
You to have to accurately assess a patient and treat them. We also for faculty, we have features where you can see how students are doing and how they're performing.
So our institutional accounts have this ability to track their video assignment conclusion. How students who have watched the videos, all videos can be grouped into a playlist and that is what's seen up here.
So, Cardio of November 2020 that is that playlist and then you see it houses three videos a year, myocardial infarction and and ace inhibitors and these three videos, then you can see how the students have done on their videos.
And then if you switch over one more, you can see how they're doing on their questions. The questions include first attempts and latest in them.
So we can see if they've improved over time and also see how their confidence changes. So if a student is very confident but has a very poor accuracy or vice versa, you can kind of alleviate your confidence as well, which gives you just a little bit more information on how students are doing.
You can also look at this for just some time teaching. So if you have a big I series that you want them to watch before they come to class, then they come to class and they get to learn more information there.
The bonus content here as I mentioned, warning signs, videos are very popular. There's also some interpersonal communication skills and other videos here.
The app is available as well and that allows students to download videos watching on the go and do most features that are available inside of the osmosis website are available on the app a little bit about transitioning into learning with osmosis at a faculty level.
It really is a way for students to engage with their content when osmos is content has an average of 83% 6% briefing rate, which those last 30 seconds or so or just the credits at the end.
Once a student user has watched about five videos, the likelihood of watching a six is 90%. It really is as we call it sticking where students really enjoy watching osmosis videos and again and again, to just make a fun way of learning information.
Every single time we have osmosis integrated into classrooms, it really is a unique fit to curriculum. There are a variety of ways to use osmosis.
And as one of our my colleagues, Catherine Johnson always mentions that if you see one integration and osmosis, you've seen one integration of osmosis does flex your curriculum from just having student driven usage all the way to the classroom.
A really quick snapshot of some of the ways that our current programs do use osmosis. There are a whole variety on this page this deck will get shared out with you afterwards.
So I will just highlight a couple here. One of them was University of Fielder, a doctor of osteopathic school.
They were challenged with supporting all learners, especially nontraditional students who were in their classrooms and osmosis really filled that need for them to have a multimedia platform that helped with all sorts of learning preferences between having the videos and the flashcards and the quizzes.
There's different ways for students to learn. They can even look at the transcripts if they just wanna read what the video content has, the student remediation playlists are actually shared.
So what they have students to do is when they need to remediate, they have to create their own osmosis playlist, share it with their academic success team and course directors and then those academic success team and course directors can close that loop by seeing how the students are doing on working on that playlist, see how they're doing on the questions and really talk at an individual student level, guide the topic area.
Another university was the University of Texas, Rio Grande Valley. Their assistant program was looking for finding reliable video content to engage students.
And so they began using osmosis constantly for their weekly playlist during, even during their threemonth, a academy for success.
This is a threemonth academy for that. Before they start their students, their students are starting to get introduced to remembering what they're gonna need to be studying before they start their pa a program.
And osmosis became a very easy solution even during that time to be a low lift way for students to get back into challenging medical topics, especially if they are coming, you taking a few gap years and then coming back into Yes.
So I will head over to a demo out here is the osmosis playlist here. I just wanna let you know if there's any questions, please put them in the chat again, will be monitoring that and let you know also if you want to ask any questions, feel free to speak up.
I'm happy to tailor the sta on. However, you'd like, I've talked about a lot of the areas of osmosis.
So I will just do a very short overview. This is our main home page which includes a search bar.
Very simple to look for key terms and the topics go down and see the daily practice quiz which some students like to do to just continually assess.
And you can see the recommended videos and picking up where you most recently left off. Here's all of our topics.
You can see them in one large list. When you look at this library menu.
As I mentioned, there are two main categories, there are basic sciences and clinical sciences. As you notice here on the clinical sciences, these are marked new.
So there are actually new videos that have just launched. There's about 60 or 70 of them on the platform right now.
And there'll be up to about 300 this year by December added to this internal medicine and surgery that talk about these new approach to disease and approach to present patient presentation videos that walk through those incision making trees.
There will be additional ones in the other clerkships coming throughout the next year. So come back and learn more about those specifically.
If you have any questions about those, we're happy to answer those as well. And as you, we mentioned, the basic science videos, they go through all the foundational sciences, some really interesting videos that are in these basic science series.
One of my favorites is the pathology review videos. It's a great way to look at osmosis and also to see learn pathology while also learning some of those clinical concepts.
So they present with a patient case at the beginning and then they walk through some of the decisions that go along with who understanding the differential of what is the underlying pathology for this differential.
It's a nice way to tie some of these pieces together. Actually, if we look here in this internal medicine, one, if you look at the clerkships, when we go into the clerkship level, we still wanted to make sure that students can review these basic sciences.
So you actually see how this information scaffolds pretty well. The prerequisite basic sciences here for clinical conditions, core competencies and diagnoses because a lot of the underlying these processes and anatomy that are really crucial to understanding an actual approach to presentation.
When you're looking at a patient, what are the things that you need to understand underneath and underlying this? So you'll see that we've put them all together in this section.
I will just take a look at one of these approach two videos and so you can see what this looks like and I will play a little bit of this right now.
I don't think I can hear it. Kin 00 I must not have shared my audio.
We can definitely share a few examples um after this call though too. So yes, you can see the video what they sound like, but this will give you a visual.
Yes, this does give you a little bit of visual. Well, one of the things that you'll see as we go along with this is that this is starting to actually fill out this decision making tree.
So as you go along, one of these videos, you can see the decision making tree will come together and it'll scale back out and then go back in to really explain to students how to think through each of these decisions as they're going along a couple of key features here.
I mentioned the playlist. So this is an a playlist video.
It's very easy to create a playlist and put videos together. So it groups them together like a CD also like Spotify playlist.
It's, it's very simple button everywhere that you see the three lines in a plus sign, that's a playlist button and all that you have to do to add a playlist together is to click on that orange one at the bottom so I can show you a little bit of now there.
I reviewed most of these things on here, we can take a look. So in this upper left hand corner, it was called the hand of the three on line.
And you can go down those play when you are in the exercise, you can see that there's an option to share. So you can share these with your students.
There's a lot of different ways to share osmosis videos. They can be even embedded into your L MS and you can share them with just a simple link, makes it very easy for to come and then watch all the things that they need to watch before they go to class.
It also makes it easy to quiz all of these at once. So if you can see all three of these videos have different step two questions.
And every question as I mentioned is made in a clinical context which is just in line with those. Yes and no questions they all ask for confidence, low, medium high are rating that.
And every time it's gonna give you a major takeaway and main explanation, all of these do highlighted words, then bring you back to an osmosis video to really close that learning loop and continue understanding information.
Since I got this one wrong, you can see that it even explain to me why this is incorrect and how I can understand the correct answer is better.
And I can also show you now related to this, we have our advent analytics, which is what the highly of having institutional partnerships is to be able to engage your students and then to be able to see overall how your students are doing visiting this and checking on it, especially if you're doing active learning is very helpful and see how many people have been watching or being on active on osmosis from your cohort.
See how many are watching videos taking questions and generally how they're doing in the accuracy, confidence and as well as their flash cards.
This is a real and the student cohort, but all the data is for this, we'll see no one's watched these videos yet because they are brand new videos that have come out this last month.
And you can see that each of these students, you can see their videos, their notes completion if they've been close to their first.
And as I mentioned before, does anyone have any questions? There is a question in the Q and A section.
Um Not, not about the analytics um but about the product itself. Um And he said it seems to be geared towards med students.
What about allied health students? Do you wanna give that explanation?
Yes. So actually this one is very geared towards MB because this is the account that I am in, but I can actually switch accounts over here.
And we do have so several different versions of the product. There's a couple of different ones that are particularly useful.
So we have a pa a, we have a product that does include questions and we've created in here actually. Yeah.
When you're in the questions section, it'll say you have some step one and step two in the pa A product. There's also a section for pants so they can see all of it together.
It aligns the pants pants, blueprint. And we're very happy to align any of our products to your individual curriculums.
So whenever you have one of these products, we can see an alignment to your curriculum directly by week, by week. We also have our dentistry students.
They, there's another product type that just is more general. It doesn't say specifically MDA your assembly on here under the core competencies.
I believe it's where it's getting placed. It says dentistry and there are dentistry specific videos available there.
We have many partners in pa programs, dentistry programs, eo programs and as well as even in EMT programs, we have worked for a long time with several EMT programs and paramedic programs.
So it is available and tailored to those ones. This is just the ending product type that I was downloading today.
Does that answer your question? Do you have any other questions?
And in your followups, what about uh for diagnostic imaging, diagnostic imaging? We have less for diagnostic imaging.
Although I think that it's coming a bit more with the clinical content that we created for those decision-making trees. Some of those are more helpful for those diagnostic imaging levels.
Are you talking about post MD or are you talking about more ultrasound tech levels? Ultrasound?
Ok. So they're probably the most useful videos for those are going to be the anatomy.
We have anatomy, clinical correlates videos and we have anatomy videos and these videos have an introduction to a lot of those anatomy anatomical terminology, which is really big in ultrasound.
In addition to that things in anatomy, chemical correlates relates everything anatomically into what you're gonna be seeing clinically.
So it's a really nice bridge for some of those. We don't have a ton as far as imaging or how to image necessarily.
But there are some images into these videos that are very useful for uh tech level is that is helpful. Any other questions?
Oh, we also have NPS reminding me that we have nurse practitioner and registered nursing. There is a a completely separate registered nursing product that actually has specifically tailored registered nursing content in it as well.
How does access or subscription work for institutions, faculty and students? This it is usually done where we work with someone at the university who wants to or we can just sign up an account.
It's based on the number of students and the faculty in general. You can reach out to us after this presentation, we'll be sending you the contact information and we have account executives that are happy to work with you on an individual basis for that.
But in general, if you're talking about how the access works, it's on yearly or annual contracts for the number of students that are available and we can group them together by class generally or cohort generally is what happens?
Does that help? And then faculty are included into the institutional pricing.
Faculty are also depending on the schools. Some institutions prefer that only a couple of faculty are seeing the analytics.
That's we're happy to do that. Or every faculty member can see the analytics for the students on what is best for the university, run any other Q and A S or check.
OK. And one of the best things about having an institutional package is it is cheaper by the student number and also that the students then all have access and it really helps with that um equitable access to educational resources.
Do you have any other questions? I think I heard someone.
Can you hear me? I, I'm not sure.
Yes, we can. Uh Yes.
Uh Do you have any content on a psychiatric nursing, psychiatric nursing? So one of the areas that we're gonna be increasing is our clerkship, psychiatric content and it'll be out by next fall.
That's when a lot of that information is going to be increased. So, or I'm assuming it's at a nurse practitioner level is what you're talking about, or are you talking about at a registered nursing level?
Uh, nursing, uh, program level? Oh, ok.
Registered nursing program level. We have some psychiatry related videos and some behavioral health videos.
We do have some of those in the behavioral sciences section. This is not on the nursing one but it there are similar videos available in there.
We actually have a nursing through the lifespan. So let me it is a totally different account.
Let me see if I can sign and we have three. Yeah, we have a mix of different specialties here.
So we do have lots of different product types. So we, you know, we can pick which one fits go in the room.
I log into my account since I have access to all of them a little bit easier to switch between. I can show you that the registered nursing autotype, as I mentioned has a few different types.
So it's not only a different view section, we have about 660 registered nursing specific videos that were made for fundamentals of nursing.
So you can go through through it here and we have psychiatric and mental health nursing. So this is gonna be the specific nursing here, these videos walk through crisis intervention.
We work through nursing across the lifespans in different age groups. What are common diagnosis that are coming up?
And then these ones actually work through kind of a nursing process. They all work through.
What is your response as a nurse as well as explaining a diagnosis or disease or explaining the process? I can show you a little bit about schizophrenia.
It will go through this the chapter. So we have chapters on these videos where you can actually see induction physiology, cosmos factors, pathology, clinical man decisions, diagnosis treatment that really goes through in a short 13 minute video.
All the essentials to from information about what is the disease to how to teach the family members. Does that help?
Yes. Uh How about uh the uh pharmacology aspect?
The pharmacology is really interesting in nursing. We actually have specific medical nursing tables as well under this product and I'll show you that right here.
So as we scroll down, uh this one doesn't have it a look, nursing for oncology when we're looking at, no med tables are big in nursing schools and a lot of schools want students to write them themselves.
But as a quick review before an exam or the relatives are actually even nursing tables under for each of the medical topics.
Here, there is quite a variety and most of the common diseases are gonna be available in this nursing pharmacology. Section.
We make sure to give you a demo account specifically for the product types that you have mentioned it. You're specifically in a certain field.
Cause as you're saying, there's few differences between the types of chronic fi any other questions and we just at time.
Well, thank you all for coming today and we'll be following up with everyone. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me.
I'm here to know again and we will make sure to put you in contact with all the right people. OK?
And it looks like we have another question. Um But yes, I mean a little bit specific.
Um So ask real quickly to faculty using an institutional, have access to all the content among all the disciplines or is it filter specific disc, it is filtered to some extent.
So faculty on an institutional account, depending on what product type was selected is best for your school, then that is the content that will be displayed for that discipline.
Registered nursing, for example, is very different. But the other ones are for the most part, all the same videos.
If you wanna use a more advanced video, it is possible the paramedic programs videos are pretty advanced as well. We have quite a collection available in there.
Does that help? We are happy to kind of work with an institution.
If there's a need that arises, we can do curriculum alignments and actually give you access to one or two videos if you need it uh through a link to that video that you want higher, you just won't be able to search for it necessarily on the search page.
Great. So as I mentioned, we'll be following up with the recording of this.
We'll send you out the d that I used earlier as well. So you can take a look at any of the links and run a little bit more.
We're excited to have you joining us today. Do you have any other final thoughts or comments?
No, that was great. Yeah, we will follow up.
Um If there are any additional questions, please let us know and we'll get you set up with the free trial account that works for your program.
Great. Thank you all.
Have a great day. Thank you.
Thanks.
