Ever snooze through a lecture in a class? Are video lectures a viable solution to an online learning environment? Today’s course media has leveled up yesterday's "sage on the stage" lecture. Whether learning online or in a classroom, course media supports a student-centered paradigm. Please join UCI Division of Continuing Education in welcoming Camille Funk, Director of UCI DCE DesignPlus, and Laura Silva, Associate Vice President of Learning Design and Engagement for Los Angeles Pacific University, as they tackle these questions and learn more about how course media fills the learning gaps that tend to limit the effectiveness of more traditional lectures. We will share strategies for how course media opens up opportunities for students to deconstruct concepts and make new meaning of what they are learning. Join us for an informative webinar as we introduce to you the new Instructional Design for Higher Education Specialization launching in Summer 2019! Just four online courses that can be completed in as few as twelve weeks, this program will give you the real-world knowledge and skills you need for success in this growing field.

Couples who file for Social Security benefits without taking spousal and survivor benefits into consideration increase their risk of running out of sufficient assets in retirement. I will discuss claiming rules for couples, including both Spousal and Survivor benefits, and will show how long that it will take to recover foregone benefits due to delays. I will then compare those break-even periods with the median expected mortality for men and for women at 65. Because Social Security benefits are analogous to an annuity, I will follow up with a demonstration on how delaying benefits can allow for increased portfolio risk, improving the odds of having sufficient assets. I will finish with a discussion on strategies that couples and planners might want to consider that will allow them to delay claiming for as long as possible.
