Sparking Technological Innovation on Campus in
the 21st Century

Digital Engagement

• Student engagement is a known key to success for
  educational institutions. Administrators and
  educators strive to build engagement both through
  personal, on-campus interactions and through the
  digital world.
• Technology is a fundamental part of todays
  campus infrastructure, and a vital component in
  driving student participation. Innovations in the
  ways students connect online are helping to build
  community and increase successful educational
  outcomes.
• Example the adoption of a private social
  engagement platform, connecting all constituents
  of the college in one global campus.

Bring More Communities into the Global Campus

• Educational institutions that aim to grow and
  thrive are mandated to connect beyond traditional
  boundaries and reach out to previously overlooked
  communities.
• Fortunately, technology is a step ahead of us.
  Enterprise engagement platforms enables the kind
  of connectivity necessary to engage underserved
  or unrecognized groups of constituents.
• Example older, non-degreed students between 25
  and 45 years of age, often described as
  unsuccessful, can be more deeply engaged for
  successful outcomes with accelerated courses and
  adaptive learning tools that are mobile and
  responsive.

Technology Beyond Information to Connection

• Educational institutions have served as
  repositories of information since at least the
  Middle Ages.
• Now, that great store of information must be
  accessible through mobile, social connections
  among formerly disparate communitiesfaculty,
  students, staff, alumni and others.
• People thinking and working together produce
  great things and by sharing knowledge, increase
  their own learning.
• Technology provides the needed infrastructure to
  facilitate this new level of engagement, in the
  form of campus engagement communities.

Personalized Technology in Learning

• Adaptive, personalized learning technologies
  exemplify the marriage of tech and education.
•  
• Enterprise engagement connects students directly
  to faculty, enabling better understanding of
  curriculum, and keeping them engaged throughout
  their school careers.
• On-campus or off-campus groups can use networks
  to share trends, research, and expert content.

6
Clouds and Crowds

• The clearest illustration of technology married
  to education is the development of online
  programs, using the cloud. Many institutions are
  challenged as to how they can grow their online
  to quickly access a global audience.
• Online programs in the cloud, opens the college
  doors to crowds, which can include all the
  various demographics of students producing work
  together, testing ideas, and sharing information.
• Effectively breaking down the ivy-covered
  walls, through online programs using cloud
  technology means colleges and their educational
  mission are no longer limited in time and place.

Beyond the Campus

• Engagement of students taking online courses is
  essential to curtailing the drop out rate of
  online courses.
• Enterprise engagement software for higher
  education connects students with faculty and
  other important constituents, expanding their
  knowledge universe exponentially.
• Learners now have access to experts in other
  institutions. They can dialogue outside class for
  new ideas and information, and connect with
  possible future employers.

8
Engaged for Life

• Using engagement techniques like gamification,
  learners are recognized for their participation
  in their area of interest or are awarded
  credentials for their accomplishments.
• Increased student engagement builds a dynamic
  relationship with the institution, producing
  greater achievement and feelings of satisfaction.
  Result increased student retention and
  graduation rates.
• Engaged students who graduate become alumni. The
  same technology behind enterprise engagement
  platforms facilitates greater alumni engagement,
  leading to increased support and giving.
