    PROMOTING STUDENT SUCCESS VIA ENGAGING AND EFFECTIVE CURRICULUM DESIGN
    May 14, 2018

    In universities across the world, content is designed to ensure that student learning is impactful and creates an environment where students learn and grow accordingly. With an effective curriculum design, students can feel empowered by being more active in the learning process and gaining more knowledge. With the aid of smart curriculum content, students can develop their skill sets and awareness to deal with the real problems they will face in the real world.

    Although various subjects often evolve and operate across multiple geographical markets, the challenge is to maintain curriculum content’s consistency and accuracy across a diverse educational landscape with numerous languages, countries, and cultures, eliminating wasteful repetition whenever possible. In any academic institution, learning goals cannot be understated. When creating an exhaustive curriculum, it is essential to provide timely feedback and challenges the student in every possible way. In an analysis of over 29,000 online student questionnaires, researchers found the factors most predictive of student persistence to be clear communication of course goals and learning outcomes. Essentially, this is where having engaging content is critical. If the student is not engaged, then the course itself becomes useless. All of these are relevant as time goes by. What first-years students will learn will affect the rest of their college experience. In another study, students involved in projects reported that they were participating in increased teamwork because of the activities and assignments.
    Learning the rights skills is extremely important as students enter the workforce. In a related study, 16% of employers feel adequate college or university programs tailored to their needs. If the program has practical goals put in place, it will transition from college to working life that much better.

    Many content service providers are evolving to meet the ever-changing needs of campuses across the world. In essence, college curriculums are aimed at being accessible and ADA-compliant. Many universities are progressing with the times. What does it mean to be accessible? It involves providing functions such as alternative text, video captioning, transcribe audio, and making links descriptive.

    In other areas, some higher education universities are turning to A.I. assisted programs where search, select, administer, and score test questions based upon multiple skills and abilities of a student. This cuts down the testing process time, provide accurate scores, and makes for better decision-making. Measures like these are essential to creating a practical course that will prove engaging to all students. It does not replace the teacher but only adds to their teaching strategies.

    Higher education institutions and others like it need to design, develop, and build engaging and effective courses. They must ensure accessibility and be ADA-compliant. Learners must perceive their courses as more relevant and report greater student engagement as part of their overall college experience. It is not just about knowledge. It is all about putting students on a path towards success.
