Hunink Collaborates with Media Hub

Myriam Hunink, wearing glasses and a business blazer and smiling off-camera, is sitting at table with colorful markers in an office setting.

CHDS adjunct faculty Myriam Hunink publishes new teaching material culminating from an immersion residency with the CHDS Media Hub from Fall, 2024. These educational resources, supported by the Alan Colowick Innovation Fund, are available worldwide through the CHDS educational repository for use in decision science curricula.

Building from the success of her previous 2017 residency, Hunink returned to collaborate with CHDS leadership and the Media Hub project team in an effort to enhance educational media offerings. During the month-long residency, Hunink worked closely with the Media Hub to design and prototype new multimedia materials. Hunink developed short, visually engaging video segments that incorporated learner-friendly cues. She also introduced companion slides and “summary” videos designed to reinforce key concepts through strategic repetition and structured learning.

This collaboration underscores CHDS’s ongoing commitment to educational innovation and the creation of public goods in decision science.
