Open Education as Strategy

Empowering Faculty and Students With High Quality Modular Courseware

Steve Ernst and Cecil Banhan

Boundless

Meet the future of educational content: Affordable, ready-to-use, digitally native courseware that can be quickly customized by instructors and personalized for students’ learning needs, and that offers real-time data and analytics to help drive student success. In this session we will discuss the model and its advantages on behalf of students, faculty and the institution, and present case studies from multiple higher education institutions. We will also demonstrate how easy it is to adopt and customize the courseware, and to deploy the courseware using the LMS of choice to create a simple, seamless learning and teaching experience for students and faculty.

Boundless courseware leverages a learning outcomes-centric model that aligns the triad of (i) learning objectives, (ii) content and (iii) assessments. That triad makes it very easy to customize the courseware to meet the unique needs of faculty and students, and to create a highly engaging, active learning environment for students. In addition, the triad enables faculty to easily track student progress and performance real-time at multiple levels.
