Abstract: 

This session will allow attendees to look beyond adaptive learning as a buzzword by giving thorough insights into its definition, implementation and potential to improve classroom results.

Extended Abstract: 

By analyzing the successful Adaptive Courseware pilots at Arizona State University, this session provides attendees with unprecedented insight into the promise of adaptive learning. These pilots ran as part of the Next Generation Courseware Challenge funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and covered general education courses in Biology and US History. Not only will the attendees learn how to introduce adaptive learning technologies into their teaching but also see the strong evidence of its positive effect on the learners' experience. The Q&A at the end of the session will give attendees the opportunity to exchange opinions and experiences with thought leaders in the field.
