Engage in an interactive simulation demo followed by a discussion on the simulation and instructional design attributes. The Office of Research Integrity has developed a series of interactive movie simulations to help improve decision-making in the context of research conduct. “The Lab” simulation allows you to pick a specific type of character and make decisions for them. Its purpose is to help participants gain a better understanding of the decision-making process to avoid research misconduct. Dr. Smith will demonstrate the interactive simulation and lead a lively discussion on its impact on you and other graduate students at UCF.

Dan Klein is a writer and speaker who began the My3:59 movement with the dunk of a basketball. My3:59 represents a mentality on how to approach life. It’s a nod to Roger Bannister who was the first person to run a mile in under 4 minutes at a time that it was accepted “knowledge” that it could not be done. To endure. To overcome. To achieve the impossible.
Dan started this movement just after his 42nd birthday but much more meaningful than his age was it occurred 7 months after his final cancer treatment. “After going through everything cancer puts you through – physically, emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually – I came away from cancer with a different perspective on life. A very different perspective on what I can and what I can’t do.”
Dan's message of living every day and giving everything you have to achieve your impossible in order to become the person we are called to be continues to inspire and motivate others to achieve their own My3:59.

The culture in the United States places significant emphasis on self-reliance and individual autonomy. This often means that persons with disabilities are expected to find ways to improve their situations and develop social relationships in a climate in which the attitudes, and ultimately the behaviors, of others present additional challenges. The goal of this workshop is to expand awareness of the experiences of people with disabilities by encouraging workshop participants to explore their conscious and unconscious perceptions (and misconceptions) of people with disabilities, and how these may affect attitudes and behaviors.
