    In this episode of Edtervene, Dr. Lydia Elliott introduces Adaptive Case Analytics — a dynamic evolution of the traditional case method that integrates real-time data, decision-based simulations, and iterative feedback. Instead of working through static scenarios, students navigate shifting variables and consequences, creating deeper engagement and more authentic problem-solving. Whether you're teaching in business, health, education, or the sciences, you'll discover how adaptive casework mirrors the complexity of professional decision-making — and how to implement it without overwhelming your course structure.

    Episode 5: Episode 5: Reflect - Engage - Expand
    Jun 29 2025
    Think-Pair-Share is a classroom classic — but let’s be honest, it often feels rushed and shallow. In this episode of Edtervene, we introduce a more intentional and impactful alternative: Reflect–Engage–Expand Cycles. Dr. Lydia Elliott explores how adding reflection before and after peer discussion leads to deeper thinking, greater student engagement, and stronger connections between ideas. You’ll learn how this upgraded strategy builds metacognitive awareness, encourages active listening, and helps students revise their thinking in meaningful ways. Whether you're teaching in-person, online, or hybrid, this episode offers simple tweaks with powerful results — no tech or major redesign required. Tune in to learn how a few extra minutes of reflection can completely transform the way students learn from each other — and themselves.
