Will the COVID-19 pandemic be remembered as a turning point in how
universities deliver teaching and learning? How might the
widespread use of digital tools change higher education? This
groundbreaking book explores the role of digital education at this
crucial crossroads. Built on interviews with more than fifty
leading practitioners from major universities and ed-tech firms,
Leveling the Learning Curve is an indispensable guide to the inner
workings of digital education. Written for university managers and
leaders, it explores how new tools can allow universities to reach
new audiences and address long-standing imbalances. The authors
examine challenges to implementing digital education programs and
provide insight into how universities have managed to balance the
needs of faculty and on- and off-campus students. The book traces
the history of digital education initiatives from Khan Academy, TED
Talks, and MOOCs through the pandemic, examining both successes and
failures. It offers compelling examples of what a “connected
university” looks like in practice, sharing ways digital tools
can bring in wider audiences, expand interdisciplinary teaching and
learning, connect students to real-life issues, help meet equity
goals, and open new revenue streams. Designed as both a manual and
an in-depth study, Leveling the Learning Curve is required reading
for educational leaders looking to navigate the complex waters of
postpandemic digital education.
