Integrating online teaching in the curriculum should not be considered only an ad-hoc solution to the current crisis, but a long-term strategy for sustainable results. What we learn during this crisis might be helpful for us in the future as well. Here are a few ideas on how to overcome any resistance to online education:
The future of leadership in higher education is now, and those aspiring to positions of influence must prepare themselves in all aspects, Taking a professional course to build a strong leadership foundation is also a popular option. With new kinds of learners entering the education system, it’s time new leadership does as well.
Smart technology is constantly evolving and it truly was a matter of time until voice was added to the mix. Smart speakers are slowly conquering the world. From kindergarten to college, smart speakers are finding their place in educational institutions, as voice-activated technology does have the potential to change many things for the better across classrooms, for students of all ages.
Social media, tailored digital marketing campaigns and other internet tech are great assets for universities to demonstrate what unique opportunities they offer and, more importantly, how they can keep up with the evolving academic and behavioral needs of new generations of students.
ALCs are here to challenge our assumptions that more seat time in a traditional lecture setting in HE equals better learning outcomes. In fact, it must just be the opposite. Here are what instructors and HE administrators should know about them:
HE organizations are trying to attract more students. In turn, class sizes are expanding and so are the costs associated with offering high quality programs. Some organizations have already started testing different solutions. Among them, are voice assistants that can be used during lectures or that function as personal assistants for students.
The field of digital humanities places strong emphasis on openness, self-criticism and reflection. Advanced cross-sections between the written word and digital technology are creating new areas of study in the humanities, especially in Higher Education, from digital archiving to topic modeling and many more.
The technology is evolving rapidly, so it’s hard to predict what is going to happen in the next 20 or 30 years. However, we can discuss the things that are already here and describe how they influenced everyday classroom activities. In this post, we will show you the top five new techno tools that you might use in your university. Let’s take a look!
If the flipped classroom approach yields so many positive results for high school students, I think it’s safe to assume it can do the same for their HE counterparts. University students are the perfect candidates of self-directed learning and they would thrive in a flipped learning environment. If we want them to become successful citizens of tomorrow, we need to turn the traditional model of teaching on its head.
When it comes to improving completion rates, reducing tuition costs and helping universities to bridge the revenue gap, technology is part of the solution. In the case of fast changing digital teaching methods however, technology, and the need to adapt to it, is a part of the problem. Perhaps the higher education sector is due for major disruption.
