In early 2017, organizations that have focused on digitallearning came together to better leverage their strengths and capacities for a common goal: improving student success. The first goal was to create an environmental scan of the digitallearning environment in higher education with a focus on adaptive technology.
From interactive simulations to online databases of primary sources, these tools offer educators a wide array of resources to enrich their curriculum and foster student learning. In elementary settings, AI-powered educational tools can provide personalized learning experiences tailored to each student’s needs and interests.
. “The Redbird acquisition allows us to expand our portfolio of adaptivelearning products as we continue our transformation from a textbook publisher to a learning science company.”. Beijing-based Zuoyebang is a mobile study platform that offers homework assistance for primary and secondary school students.
Not everyone in the #DLNchat community was as enthusiastic about the potential of adaptivelearning for CBE. Or, as Evan Smith suggested, “Websites of state coordinating boards could list objectives cross-listed for, e.g., both secondary and post-secondary levels.”. Grann didn’t think so.
The shift towards digitallearning has been palpable, and this trajectory is poised to persist, shaping the way individuals access and engage with educational content. AI can simplify grading, manage schedules, organize complex information, improve learning management systems, power professional learning, and much more.
We still see the majority of campuses failing to formally recognize professors’ digital work. Yet we also see academic deans and provosts showing more interest in digitallearning than their faculty. Primary and secondary schools are a battleground between iPads and Chromebooks, it seems.
Pearson promises “personalization” through its “adaptivelearning” products, for example. (It “Ohio State collaborates with Apple to launch digitallearning initiative,” the university announced in October. Students will receive iPads.

AI can simplify grading, manage schedules, organize complex information, improve learning management systems, power professional learning, and much more.
The digital availability of information has accelerated the pace of knowledge sharing, enabling instant access to a vast repository of resources. Collaboration is not confined by physical barriers–global learning communities connect and share insights in real-time. Why is digitallearning important?
Education and student well-being are stretched thin, and lingering learning gaps, exacerbated by the pandemic, present hurdles for all students–especially underrepresented students groups who were already at a disadvantage. Educators will embrace brain science and screen time in early learning.
Educational software, including interactive simulations and virtual labs, brings abstract concepts to life, enhancing experiential learning. Furthermore, adaptivelearning platforms, like Khan Academy and Duolingo, cater to individual student needs, offering personalized learning paths and immediate feedback.

Those of us who work in education technology have to grapple with this question, I’d argue, because Trump University is emblematic of the kinds of promises we hear all the time about “disruptive innovation” that’ll come in the form of digitallearning technologies. (In How much of ed-tech is humbug?
In 2011, the Mozilla Foundation unveiled its “Open Badges Project,” “an effort to make it easy to issue and share digitallearning badges across the web.” He told NPR in 2015 that Knewton’s adaptivelearning software was a “mind-reading robo tutor in the sky.” And I’d never gotten my Ph.D.
