Adaptive Learning
Adaptive learning works by continuously assessing student performance and activity in real time. With every touch of the screen and keystroke, students provide valuable information—data that can be used to personalize content and target students’ strengths and weaknesses, thereby creating a successful learning path for each student.
Active Learning
Active learning is just that—learning in which students are actively participating through reading, writing, problem-solving, and discussion rather than passively listening to instruction. Discover more about the learning strategies schools are implementing in order to promote active learning in the classroom.
Competency-Based Education Degree Programs
Institutions can help students complete credentials in less time and at a lower cost with competency-based education programs. With a focus on real-world learning that leads to greater employability, this versatile model carries numerous benefits for all involved.
Self-Paced, Student-Directed Learning
Self-paced learning enables students to take a self-directed, personalized approach to completing courses, certifications, or degrees. The learner ultimately determines the pace and timing of content delivery, increasing flexibility and helping online students accelerate their learning.
