IntroductionRethinking education and finding a path forward

The Ideal Learning Experience

= Better Outcomes and Retention

Education today...

Education is EvolvingOne-Size Fits-All VS. Personalized

Constraints of the Traditional ModelNo opportunity to learn from failure

Limited, untimely feedback provided

Access to post-mortem data

Instructor left to theorize what went wrong

Technology used primarily for reporting and administrative purposes

Course Content & Delivery ConstraintsNo data on how student is interacting with content

Limited insight on whether student comprehends content

No perspective on whether the student can apply the knowledge

No ability to identify what content is engaging

Limited ability to make content relevant and contextualized

Next Gen Learning: The Promise

Next Gen Learning helps the development of skills required to create value in today’s workforce, such as:

- Critical Thinking- Problem Solving- Collaboration- Communication

Opportunities for increased student

engagement

Accessible content, such as Open Educational Resources

(OER)

Real-time data that informs both teacher and

student

The Ideal Learning Experience

= Better Outcomes and Retention

The Ideal Learning Experience

Engaging Experiences + More Relevant Data + Open Materials

= Better Outcomes and Retention

Reuse: Content can be reused in its unaltered form

Retain: Users have the right to make, archive, and “own” copies of the content

Revise: Content can be adapted, adjusted, modified or altered

Remix: The original content can be combined with other content to create something new

Redistribute: Copies of the content can be shared with others in its original, revised or remixed form

The Process

commercial textbook

Like all institutions, we continue to work creatively to find solutions to help online students make gains. Many of the recommendations being implemented, however, affect more than just fully online students – they potentially affect any student whose instructor uses a digital platform. Lumen provides high quality, vetted content with built in options for strong pedagogical support on Day 1. What’s more, it is affordable for students and easy for faculty to learn to use.
