What impact has the pandemic-induced remote spring had on teaching and learning technology usage trends in U.S. higher education, and what do 2020 tech patterns suggest about the student experience of the future? Richard Garrett, chief research officer at higher education research firm Eduventures, will share insights from the fifth Changing Landscape of Online Education (CHLOE) report, based on a unique survey of online learning leaders undertaken by Eduventures and Quality Matters. The presentation will consider which solutions are most used, the level of standardization within institutions, the extent of cloud adoption and more. We’ll also examine long-term technology adoption trends based on data from Eduventures partner ListEDTech.

As colleges and universities navigate the ever-shifting challenges of higher education’s “new normal,” they are also looking ahead: How can the lessons learned from the pandemic redefine teaching and learning moving forward? And how can the technology decisions made today impact the future? In thoughtful hour-long editorial sessions, education and IT leaders will share their ideas, experiences and outlook, and engage attendees with a live Q&A.
It is undeniable that big data analytics provide a real opportunity to academic institutions, specifically in predictive and prescriptive analytics. However, the McKinsey Study on Higher Education shows that academic institutions have the lowest adoption of predictive and prescriptive methodology. This divide can be overcome through thoughtful analysis of an institutions' technology ecosystem and a use case driven approach to implementation. Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) provide institutions the ability to analyze large sets of data that can be used to focus more intently on the individual learner. On a broader scale, student data can also be parsed through predictive churn to focus on finding, retaining and supporting the next generation of student freshmen.
