How to Create a Higher Education Experience Students Want

From in-person learning environments to blended learning and fully remote offerings, the bar for higher education institutions has been raised, and students are now looking for offerings that meet their individual needs.

This blog outlines trends higher education institutions should keep in mind regarding what online students are looking for in their learning experience. 

1. Continuing to Offer Online Courses is Not Optional 

Online learning is one of the fastest growing areas of education. This year, the United States is expected to bring in $87.51 billion in revenue from online learning alone, and this learning medium is anticipated to reach a total of 82.7 million users by 2028, according to research by Statista. The reason is simple enough: online courses offer students the flexibility they need in their education.  

With the demand growing, it is important that universities and institutions alike focus on developing a strategic plan for how they will expand and support an online learning environment. Availability and accessibility of course content is a must, as well as the tech support needed so students and instructors can have the best environment possible in their online educational journey.  

2. Data-Driven Environments Can Transform Education 

The use of data in higher education plays an outsized role in enrollment and retention efforts. While this may not be on a student’s list of what they are looking for in a university, the responsiveness and personalized learning a university can deliver as a result of this are a priority for learners.  

“Traditionally, students have found camaraderie and collaborative environments with classmates in common spaces like the dining hall, library, or the quad.”

Data and analytics also can help faculty and staff identify students who may be at risk of falling behind or struggling academically, allowing for early intervention and targeted support services. This can help prevent students from becoming disengaged or dropping out.

Data can also be leveraged to recognize consistent or trending pain points for courses or certain aspects of a course, which can allow professors and instructors to adjust their approach, ancillary materials, and support provided.  

3. A User-Friendly LMS is Critical  

Regardless of whether students are taking an in-person course or a course that is fully online, a high-quality learning management system (LMS) is a must for developing and distributing content. 

More importantly, the technology that is integrated into the LMS matters. It is crucial for students to be able to access course content online seamlessly. This enables students to have access to any course materials needed in a central location and access to those items no matter the device used. 

A strong LMS also has the ability to create an environment where communication and collaboration can take place despite students being in different locations. It also gives instructors the opportunity to integrate videos, in-video quizzes, and gamification into course content to ensure that the learning environment is just as interactive online as it is in person.  

4. Incorporate Virtual Spaces for Collaboration and Connection 

Traditionally, students have found camaraderie and collaborative environments with classmates in common spaces like the dining hall, library, or the quad. For online students this space no longer exists in the way it has traditionally. Instructors and higher-ed leaders are now looking to recreate these spaces in a virtual setting. 

This could be done through virtual programming and could even include student clubs and activities to incorporate into their online experience. Institutions also have the opportunity to create collaborative online spaces for group projects and study sessions. This promotes social interaction, community building, peer learning, and has other positive benefits in creating a sense of belonging for students who aren’t on campus each day.

YuJa to Present Panorama Digital Accessibility Platform at EDUCAUSE Demo Day

“When we adopt digital accessibility methods, we create more equitable experiences for more of our learners,” said Thomas J. Tobin, Senior Teaching and Learning Developer at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on the Demo Day website. “This isn’t just an ethical imperative, either. Learners who experience a sense of voice, choice, agency, belonging and safety are five times more likely to continue their educational journeys with us.” 

Digital accessibility is the process of making a site, application, or software program compatible with assistive technology that helps people with disabilities access, understand, and use digital products. YuJa Panorama integrates seamlessly into all major learning management system (LMS) products to improve the accessibility of digital media and course content.

The platform automatically generates accessible versions of all uploaded documents, provides users with customized website accessibility profiles that can be applied to any webpage, and identifies, prioritizes and automates the resolution of accessibility issues with on-the-spot remediation capabilities. This session will highlight these and more features to a diverse audience from colleges and universities worldwide. 

Attendees will be able to see the latest accessibility features, ask questions to YuJa experts, and learn best practices for implementing an accessible video platform from peer institutions.

Celebrating Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month 2024: A World of Opportunities

Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month is a reminder of the importance of inclusivity, understanding, and breaking down barriers for those with developmental disabilities.

The 2024 theme, “A World of Possibilities,” focuses on people working together to remove obstacles so everyone can do well and succeed. “‘A World of Opportunities’ – we’re celebrating people and working together to remove obstacles. Our goal is to build a community that’s committed to creating a world where everyone can do well and succeed. Join us in making a world where all kinds of people have the chance to thrive,” the NACDD website states.

“…universities can make an accessible infrastructure campuswide, offer assistive technologies, and promote inclusive teaching methods to create an environment where every student can thrive.”

DDAM encourages awareness, promotes inclusion, and challenges societal norms and biases that may perpetuate discrimination. Dedicating a month to this cause helps facilitate conversations around accessibility, equal opportunities, and the rights of individuals with I/DD. 

Challenges Faced by Those With I/DD

I/DD can take various forms, such as physical, cognitive, sensory, and developmental disabilities. Each person’s experience is unique, highlighting the diversity within the community. These disabilities can manifest early in life and often impact a person’s ability to learn, communicate, and perform everyday tasks.

Living with a disability comes with many challenges from physical barriers to limited access to education and employment opportunities, societal stigma, and others. The impact of these challenges vary depending on the specific disability, its severity, and the level of support available.

Promoting Inclusivity in Higher Education and Beyond

In higher education, Developmental Disability Awareness Month emphasizes the active promotion of inclusivity. Educational institutions should create environments accommodating diverse abilities, ensuring equal opportunities for all students.

For many institutions, this involves investing in a campus and culture that highly values diversity and inclusion. For example, universities can make an accessible infrastructure campuswide, offer assistive technologies, and promote inclusive teaching methods to create an environment where every student can thrive.

In the professional realm, employers are encouraged to actively promote workplace inclusivity by providing accessible facilities, implementing flexible work arrangements, and fostering a culture that strongly values diversity and inclusion.

Coming together to show awareness for Deaf people within communities helps people better interact and communicate with deaf people. This week gives people an avenue to advocate for policy change and improvements in education, employment, and accessibility. 

“A world that is more conscious of deaf persons’ needs and rights is a world where deaf people are provided the access they need to contribute as equals,” the World Federation of the Deaf states.

Here are a few ways organizations and individuals can support IWD:

• Promote Awareness: Use your organization’s communication channels, such as social media, newsletters, and websites, to spread information about IWD. Raise awareness about the importance of deaf culture, sign language, the importance of assistive devices and technology, and the challenges faced by deaf individuals in various aspects of their lives.
• Create Accessible Content: Ensure your organization’s online content is accessible to deaf and hard of hearing individuals. Provide captions, subtitles, and transcripts to make your content inclusive.
• Collaborate with Deaf Organizations: Partner with local or national deaf organizations to co-host events and share resources. Collaborating with experts and advocates from the deaf community ensures that your activities are respectful, accurate, and relevant.
• Advocate for Policy Change: Use the IWD to advocate for policy changes that promote accessibility, equal rights, and inclusion for deaf individuals. Engage with policymakers and relevant stakeholders to raise awareness about important issues.
• Host an Event: Organize events, workshops, webinars, or seminars focused on deaf awareness, sign language education and accessibility. These events can help educate your employees, clients, and your community about the experiences of deaf people.
• Make a Long-Term Commitment: Supporting the IWD is not just about a week of activities. Consider making your support for the deaf community an ongoing commitment beyond the IWD. Implement sustainable practices, such as offering accommodations, fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace, and regularly engaging with deaf organizations, and make sure you’re giving deaf people a seat at the decision-making table.

Ensuring accessibility is essential for deaf people to have equal opportunities, rights, and engagement in every facet of life. Accessibility tools and technology, such as captioning, alternative formats facilitate interactions in educational settings, workplaces, healthcare environments, and daily interactions. 

 

Enhancing Classroom Engagement With a Student Response System

Benefits of Using a Student Response System

Enhanced Classroom Engagement: SRS encourages active participation by allowing students to respond to questions in real-time. This active learning approach shifts students from passive listeners to active contributors, fostering deeper understanding and retention of course material.

Immediate Feedback for Students: With a student response system, students receive immediate feedback on their responses. This enables them to gauge their comprehension levels and identify areas that require further study, promoting a self-directed learning process.

Formative Assessment Opportunities: Instructors can employ SRS as a formative assessment tool, evaluating student understanding during lectures or class discussions. This enables instructors to adapt their teaching in real-time and address misconceptions right away.

Encouragement of Inclusive Pedagogy: A SRS allows students to respond anonymously, creating a more inclusive and supportive learning environment. It also accommodates diverse learning styles, which helps make education accessible to all.

Data-Driven Insights for Educators: A SRS generates valuable data on student performance and engagement. Educators can analyze this data to identify trends, assess teaching effectiveness, and personalize instruction for individual student needs.

Implementing Student Response Systems Successfully

To harness the full potential of SRS and enhance classroom engagement, educators should consider the following strategies:

• Set Clear Learning Objectives: Align SRS activities with specific learning objectives, ensuring that the questions asked directly contribute to the course outcomes.
• Incorporate a Variety of Question Types: Utilize a mix of question formats, including multiple-choice, open-ended, and interactive polling, to keep students engaged and accommodate diverse learning preferences.
• Integrate SRS Questions into Lectures: Introduce SRS questions at strategic points throughout the lecture to keep students attentive and break the monotony of passive listening.
• Encourage Group Activities: Use SRS to facilitate collaborative group activities and discussions, fostering peer learning and teamwork.
• Provide Feedback and Reflection: After SRS activities, discuss the results with students, address common misconceptions, and allow time for reflection on the material covered.

Tips for Improving Lecture Capture Audio Quality

Audio quality is essential for capture functionality; users need to be able to hear what you are saying. Poor audio quality makes captures less useful, and may leave users feeling discouraged and frustrated.

There are multiple components to the overall quality of an audio recording, including the space in which you’re recording, the equipment you’re using, and the settings for your microphone.

The Recording Space

The physical space and ambient noise present can impact the overall quality of the audio in your recording. Consider the differences between a small conference room and a large lecture hall full of students. In an empty conference room, you may have few audio issues. In a full lecture hall, there is likely to be a great deal of ambient noise. While you cannot address all aspects of background noise, you may be able to control some of the following:

• Turn off ceiling fans and additional, unused appliances and phones. Close your windows to block out vehicles and other outside noise.
• Position microphones away from the classroom computer. Computer fans can be a significant source of additional noise.
• Ensure there’s no echo. Typically, a smaller recording space is better to reduce echo, but carpet, furniture, and acoustic foam tiles in a space can all help reduce echo.

The Microphone

The right microphone is essential to good-quality audio recordings. In a small space, like an office, the built-in microphone in a laptop computer or headphone microphone may be adequate. There is little background noise in a small space, and fewer audio challenges. Still, if you choose this method, ensure you have access to editing software that can help enhance the audio.

In a larger lecture hall or auditorium, it’s recommended that you choose a uni-directional microphone, which picks up sound only from one direction. This means the noise of the classroom or conference space will not be picked up on the microphone, while the speaker’s voice will be clear and audible.

Ideally, the microphone should be placed 3-5 inches from the speaker. A stand, or a lapel microphone if you need to move around the room, can help keep the microphone the same distance from the speaker throughout the recording. It also ensures the speaker can use their hands for visual demonstrations.

The Sound Check

In addition to preparing the space and making smart microphone selections, it is helpful to take a moment to check your sound and assess sound quality. Do a test run to check that audio is clear, crisp, and balanced.

If there are two speakers, it’s helpful to record on separate tracks so they can be adjusted separately. Each speaker should wear headphones to avoid picking up the other speaker’s audio as background noise.

YuJa Software Capture enables you to test your audio feed before you begin recording. Check the monitor to assess your volume levels. You can also opt for a short on-demand recording to check and review your audio quality.

YuJa’s HTML5-based Video Editor also allows instructors to edit audio to remove pauses, adjust audio gain adjustments, amplification and re-normalization capabilities.

Expanding Video in Blended Learning Environments

Many instructors who have taught blended courses are quite familiar with basic lecture capture, but may not have fully explored the options available through video today.

The Benefits of Video

Video offers several distinct advantages as a learning medium, whether it’s being used in the context of a flipped classroom or to provide supplemental learning materials.

• Since video combines visual, text, and auditory elements, it effectively reaches individuals with different learning styles.
• Video relies on and makes use of both the left and right hemispheres of the brain.
• Images, including moving images in the video, are more likely to be remembered than text.
• The brain can process images more quickly and efficiently than text.
• Video is ideal for shorter attention spans, common in students raised in today’s digital age.

Expand Video Learning

Video learning doesn’t have to be limited to a traditional recording of a course lecture, with an instructor at the podium and a digital presentation. Consider integrating some of these suggestions into your blended learning or distance learning courses to keep students engaged and active.

Keep It Short

Breaking videos down into shorter, more digestible pieces is known as chunking or micro-lessons.

Because research has shown that students better learn and retain information that has been broken down through chunking, instructors have embraced the method in their course design.

Learners report that videos from six minutes to 15 minutes in length are preferred to traditional, full-length lecture videos. You can still cover the content, but break it up into shorter sections or elements to keep students focused on learning.

Personalize or Brand your Content

Consider using the same introduction for all of your video content, or integrating some of the same structures throughout. If you think about the videos your students watch on their own time, there is often a clear introductory sequence that identifies the video maker and topic.  This is an ideal time to provide your students with the information they need about the video content or other course activities.

YuJa also offers a custom-branded EnterpriseTube to provide a public face for your organization. Accessible without logging in, this is a great way to showcase public events, share information, and show what your institution has to offer while keeping everything aligned to your brand.

Provide Feedback

While many videos are used by all students, recording tools also enable you to provide video feedback to a single student or a small group of students. Skip the red pen and provide detailed feedback on a rough draft, project, or another assignment.

Teach Hands-on Skills

In many fields, students do not only need to know the information but also need to be able to perform set skills. Video recording can allow you to show those skills to students who might not have been able to attend, or who need to review a demonstration. With access to a demonstration video, students can more easily master these skills, whether you’re working with a piece of software or performing a medical procedure.
