Adaptive learning is a game-changing innovation for higher education.
Historically used in remedial education, adaptive learning enables a rapid pace of personalization through the use of highly sophisticated, integrated technology. While the philosophy is nothing new, the technology is. Colleges and universities are using adaptive learning models to deliver high-quality, low-cost instruction to vast numbers of students. If you’re considering implementing adaptive learning at your institution, here are five things to consider based on Eduventures research and recent interviews from our latest report, Maximizing Investment in Adaptive Learning. 1. No one approach is the same. A Periodic Table of Instructional Design. EdTech Tools. Gagne's Nine Events of Instruction. Missouri State U Improves Learning Outcomes with Flipped Classroom. Flipped Classroom | Project Spotlight Missouri State U Improves Learning Outcomes With Flipped Course Missouri State University (MSU) has implemented a flipped classroom model for its Introductory Psychology course, resulting in dramatic improvements in student learning outcomes and course completion rates.
Challenge In 2010, four-year public higher education institutions throughout the state of Missouri embarked on an initiative of academic collaboration and course transformation to improve student learning outcomes and reduce costs. As part of this initiative, each institution committed to redesigning one large enrollment course with academic problems such as poor learning outcomes or high DFW rates (rates of students earning grades of D or F or withdrawing from the course). In collaboration with the National Center for Academic Transformation (NCAT), the universities engaged in a competitive process to determine which schools would redesign which courses.
