  1. Innovations in Delivering Higher Education and TVET Adaptive Systems 5th PASET Forum May 2019 Dale P. Johnson Director, Adaptive Learning Initiatives

  2. 2011 2019 Adaptive System Development • Algebra • Biology • Chemistry • Economics • History • Math • Science • Physics • Psychology • Dale P. Johnson • Director, Adaptive Learning Initiatives

  3. Where is Arizona State University?

  4. What is Arizona known for?

  5. Public research university • 100,000 students • 70,000 on-campus • 30,000 online • Urban population 4.7 million

  6. How is ASU already helping African students? Baobab - African scholars network Education for HumanityEast Africa Adjumani 30,000 African university students funded by the MasterCard Foundation Deliver high-quality online education for refugees and host communities Nakivale Address systemic and technical barriers refugees face in accessing education Kiziba Facilitate refugee integration through university partnerships

  7. The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed. - William Gibson 1993

  8. Why is this conference so important? Mass Personalization Mass Personalization Mass Personalization Mass Production Mass Production TRANSFORMATION Mass Production

  9. How does that apply to education? Mass Production Mass Personalization Same Lesson Right Student All Students Right Lesson Right Time Same Time

  10. How can adaptive systems help us? Math course INSIGHT Who needs help? What do they need help with? What’s the best way to help?

  11. How are the adaptive systems different? Static Dynamic Traditional ADAPTIVE • Variable - Lesson Plan Fixed • Individual • Personalized - Presentation Group - Content Common

  12. What is adapting to the student? • Lesson sequence • Content selection What is guiding the adaptation? • Algorithm (analytics) – recommendations • Assessment – rapid remediation • Association – knowledge network • Agency – student choice

  13. How is ASU using the adaptive systems? Active Learning Adaptive Learning Bloom’s Taxonomy Optimize high-tech (adaptive) and high-touch (active) learning

  14. Howdoes this process work in practice? 1. ACQUIRE INFO Read textbook, watch video, do simulation, etc. 2. ASSESS Do practice problems, take quiz before class ADAPTIVE SYSTEM ACTIVE CLASS 4. ASSIMILATE Write essay, solve problems, take quiz, etc. 3. APPLY Solve an applied problem (case study) with classmates.

  15. Whatdoes a sample course look like? Biology and Society Biomes Genetics Evolution Human Body Ecology Photosynthesis Scientific Method Cells Lab Lab Lab Lab Lab Lab Exam Exam Exam Adaptive and Active learning are symbiotic in the educational ecosystem.

  16. How has it worked at ASU? Introduction to Biology ~ 850 students Fall 2015 implemented CogBooks Same instructor, curriculum and assessments

  17. How has it worked at ASU? College Algebra ~ 5,000 students Fall 2016 implemented McGraw Hill ALEKS Same instructors, curriculum and assessments

  18. How can Africa use adaptive systems? Build Collaborative Adaptive Networks (CAN) to be configured by professors and personalized for students. Biology Mathematics Chemistry Physics

  19. What is the first step to success? Build Collaborative Adaptive Networks (CAN) to be configured by professors and personalized for students. Network Lesson 1 L-2 L-5 L-4 L-7 L-X L-3 L-6

  20. How will professors use it? Build Collaborative Adaptive Networks (CAN) to be configured by professors and personalized for students. Network Algebra Calculus Basic Math Course Configuration Lesson 1 L-2 L-5 L-4 L-7 L-X L-3 L-6

  21. What will the students experience? Build Collaborative Adaptive Networks (CAN) to be configured by professors and personalized for students. Student Lesson Lesson Library • AlgorithmAssessment • Association • Agency Objective Assessments Lesson Lesson Content Lesson Content Instructional Materials Instructional Materials Content Objective Practice Problems Practice Problems Assessments Content Assessment Instruments Assessment Instruments

  22. Where are we in the technology cycle? 250 200 150 100 50 0 Collaborative Adaptive Networks could scale like mobile technology in Africa. WE ARE HERE!

  23. The best way to predict the future is to invent it. • - Alan Kay 1982

  24. Additional Slides for Reference

  25. Whatdoes a student experience look like? A mix of the four different techniques: • Algorithm • Assessment • Association • Agency How well did you understand The Nature of Energy? Assessment Agency I completely understood I didn’t understand We recommend the following content: Algorithm These may also help: Association

  26. How are these techniques implemented? Personalized Lesson Sequence Personalized Lesson Sequence (Algorithm, Association, Agency) Personalized Lesson Sequence Content Customization Rapid Remediation Personalized Review Lesson 1 Lesson 1 L-2 L-2 L-5 L-5 L-7 L-7 L-x L-x L-4 L-4 L-3 L-3 L-6 L-6

  27. How are these techniques implemented? Rapid Remediation (Assessment) Lesson 1 L-2 L-5 L-7 L-x L-4 L-3 L-6

  28. How are these techniques implemented? Content Selection (Algorithm, Assessment, Agency) Lesson #5 Lesson 1 L-2 Content Library Content Video A Content Video B L-3 Algorithm Assessment Agency

  29. How are these techniques implemented? Personalized Review (Algorithm, Assessment) Adaptive Test Prep Review materials in: Lesson 3 (quiz score 69%) Lesson 4 (quiz score 58%) Lesson 7 (quiz score 72%) L-1 Lesson 1 Lesson 1 L-2 L-2 L-2 L-5 L-5 L-5 L-7 L-7 L-7 L-x L-x L-x L-4 L-4 L-4 L-3 L-3 L-3 L-6 L-6 L-6

  30. How can you manage system development? Faculty Instructional Designers Technologists Vendor Personnel Instructional Designers Video Producers Video Producers Video Producers Instructional Designers Video Producers Instructional Designers Others? Others? Others? Vendor Personnel Leaders Vendor Personnel Vendor Personnel Graphic Designers Graphic Designers Graphic Designers Graphic Designers Faculty Faculty Faculty Librarians Librarians Librarians Librarians Technologists Technologists Technologists Adaptive technology is a team sport, so collaboration is key.

  31. Where do we start on adaptive systems? • The “Ed Molecule” is the building block of adaptivity. LESSON Objective Assessment Content

  32. What are the major system components? Student UX Instructor UX Lesson Reporting Reporting Grouping Adaptive Content Database Information Architecture (Ed Molecule) Analytics Content Curation Course Creation Edit Associate Edit Sequence

  33. What are some key system development issues? • Course Creation • Construct or Configure • Time consuming Quick • Flexible Constrained • Costly Cheaper • Riskier Safer Consider the amount of effort before committing to a strategy.

  34. How are different systems implemented? Configure Course Creation – Construct Knowledge Network L2 L5 L8 Lesson 1 L4 Lx L3 L7 L6 Adaptive systems are moving toward modularity.

  35. Howare the classrooms organized? Students work in small teams to solve problems.

  36. Whatis the new role of the teacher? Professors lead students through the group activities.

  37. What can help faculty succeed in the new model? • Strong academic leader support (and $) • Faculty leadership for each network • Instructor peer mentoring for training • “Guide on the Side” is not for everyone • Be patient, it’s a learning process Success of the technology depends on the teacher!
