Higher education leader supporting postsecondary institutions and their faculty as they explore and adopt academic innovations to improve student success.
Love this! Moving from a quality course perspective to quality created & curated student experiences is radically important — particularly for the “whole human education” @NatUniv & others are championing! And @drmjbishop, @BennettPres_SEW, & @YakutGazi are killer convo partners!
Love this work... as a field, ID needs to spend some time interrogating our processes and traditionally accepted design guidelines to ensure inclusivity. https://t.co/M0K50fDG8A

"There has never been a clearer need for employers, government, and workers to identify needed and desired skills and competencies"... AND "there have never been more potential resources to make this happen." @JohnOBrienEDU @ariadne4444@LouisSoares https://t.co/3rECiytiuA
Excellent points @BowlesJohnson! Why Can’t Higher Education Change? "...we should start with a critical look at the fundamental systems already in place that could be better utilized to foster innovation and create change." https://t.co/n1oC8KNw35 @insidehighered#highered

@whitneykilgore Introduce yourself and tell us one thing you’ve done that you’ll bet no one else in the class has done… but keep it clean! If someone else has done it too, then you have to come up with something else.
Great piece by @drseangallagher about the need for higher education to partner more closely with employers to serve the needs of adult learners https://t.co/3e2qZkx6WD #edtech via @EdSurge
@DOERS3ORG has developed a tool to help tenure-track faculty include open educational resources (#OER) work in their tenure & promotion portfolios. Check out this @InsideHigherEd op-ed by @andrewgmckinney and @acoolidge for more: https://t.co/r8Qd1iOfvV #HigherEd
Thanks to Truscribe artist Will Santino for this graphic recording of @DRMJBishop's session "Instructional Message Design: Past, Present, and Future Relevance" at the @UWDEPD#UWDTL conference today!
From learner experience design to AR/VR to beyond-grading assessments to the power of co-curricular curation into the family of learning experiences & more, this was wonderfully rowdy. Thank you @drmjbishop@PresBreaux@NSU_DWilliams & all!
How do we iterate beyond the academic transcript to better communicate what our graduates know and are able to do? Check this out... A Better "Transcript" for Learners and Employers https://t.co/Th61MVKESY @UMGCCareers @iitbream @Univ_System_MD@KirwanCenter@insidehighered
The "educational benefits" rationale for supporting diversity in #highered "accords with the preferences of, and better relative outcomes for, white Americans over low-status racial minorities." We need to add that inclusion is also the right thing to do. https://t.co/S5LfKM8LzD
Among the truly inspired ideas that has come out of the last year. Hoping we can replicate the “Finish Line” program elsewhere across the @Univ_System_MD! @UMBC https://t.co/L6nRatDfUs
