Summer 2019 Bonus Episode 03: Adaptive Learning in Higher Ed: Failure is Not an Option

Instruction By Design

In this episode, the instructional designers from Arizona State University’s Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation (Aaron Kraft, Celia Coochwytewa, and Jinnette Senecal) are joined by special guest Peter van Leusen from EdPlus at ASU to explore the features, functions, and flexibility of adaptive learning systems. We discuss the potential for improved learning outcomes, necessary considerations for successful integration, and the reality of using adaptive learning systems from the perspectives of instructors and learners.
