Overview
The best advice on using technology to improve education outcomes.
Student Experience
A strong student experience is key to quality education, influencing an institution's reputation, retention, and application rates. This is especially critical in higher education's competitive, student-centric environment, as it correlates with improved academic performance and greater personal happiness.
Investing in the right tech to support students
Investing in the right technology to support your students is crucial.
Firstly, it can rapidly improve accessibility for many students and enhances a sense of inclusion for everyone. Technology can also encourage collaboration and communication between students and educators. It allows for educators to have better engagement with their students and provides tools to monitor student wellbeing. Engaging with technology enables schools to analyse data on trends within student behaviours, working patterns and whether further intervention is required to increase their learning potential.
How can data analytics support and improve health and wellbeing?
Data analytics are now an incredibly powerful tool in education.
They play a massive part in supporting and analysing the well-being of our students. Data analytics enables us to look at student trends such as attendance, how often they are using the facilities around campus, the grades being achieved, extra circular activities and how often they are utilising student services. By having access to this type of analysis, it enables education institutions to understand their mental health and who might need some additional support.
How can a smart campus incorporate a good student experience?
Answer: in several ways...
The use of wayfinding and beacons can analyse student movements and provide us with patterns of behaviour. These patterns enable an education institution to analyse the potential additional needs of individual students. A Smart campus can also enable personalised learning opportunities by providing tools to each student as individuals, enabling them to collaborate and communicate more effectively with staff and students.
