Our network brings together faculty, senior management, Edtech project managers, learning designers, and media experts to co-create the very best online learning experiences.
Together we have shaped one of the most powerful and intuitive learning platforms which enables us to produce personalised, interactive, and high-touch learning journeys.
Mentorship promotes learner development by drawing out and shaping what a student already knows. A mentor serves as a guide rather than a provider of knowledge. They expose students to a new world, demonstrate methods of interpretation and equip them with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed.
Mentors introduce learners to new perspectives and modes of thinking that support, challenge, and broaden students’ mindsets.
Online learning enables teachers to become mentors, reconfiguring the relationship between instructors and students. Students benefit tremendously when instructors take advantage of the capabilities of the online learning space to guide them through their personalised learning journey.
Education extends beyond knowledge acquisition. A student’s education is a deeply transformative experience that profoundly affects one’s identity and worldview. Providing the opportunity to expose students to diverse viewpoints and to challenge them to respond is a key responsibility and privilege for educators.
This involves asking difficult questions and allowing students to embrace different possibilities and lenses on the world.
Online learning facilitates personalised feedback and real-time interaction, giving students an opportunity to actively engage with both their peers and their instructor. For educators, online learning opens up manifold ways of interacting with students and supporting active learning.
Trust is an important constituent of educational situations and relationships, and never more so than in online spaces. Building fully networked global communities which develop social and intellectual interaction is essential.
Online education creates many of opportunities for individuals to learn about alternative contexts and situations. So leverage the power and influence of the network and encourage sharing and collaboration.
The business world changes rapidly—it is fast, exciting and dynamic. Beautifully curated and designed content is not enough. Educators should embrace the immediacy of learning by making content, ideas and arguments real and relevant to business and industry.
Drawing on current events and trends, provides learners the opportunity to make pertinent connections and uncover new approaches. Citing cutting-edge research and case studies contextualises learning for students.
Online learning also provides unique opportunities to connect learners directly to experts. Digital delivery accommodates exposure to guest speakers regardless of their location. Both synchronous and asynchronous delivery encourage discussion and exploration of real-life issues and developments.
Online lecturers cannot work in isolation because successful online delivery requires close and extensive collaboration. Learning designers gather information from subject matter experts and convert pedagogical expertise into engaging and effective online programmes. Technology experts ensure online tools function seamlessly, in order to augment rather than distract from learning outcomes. Programme managers and coordinators support the administrative logistics of teaching at scale and at distance.
Online learning has transformed the way in which academic teams operate and harnesses the diverse skill sets within institutions.
