Abstract:
Today's students demand a more mobile, anytime, anywhere, engaging learning experience. Lecturers are often time poor, and want to spend more time with their students than on administrative tasks such as marking. The workforce of the future demands more skills which a collaborative and self directed learning experiences can deliver. This means institutions need to move away from the status quo, rote and passive learning and create innovative learning environments. As with other industries, CIOs and their teams are crucial to enabling education institutions to meet those demands, its simply a question of investing to drive innovation in teaching and learning practices. In this presentation Canvas will draw on industry research which demonstrates how you can remove barriers to innovation for your institutions and customer examples such as Fontys, University of Auckland, University of Birmingham to show you how institutions are already investing in innovative technology to enhance the teaching and learning experience.
