If there is anything constant in social media — it is the rise and fall of platforms. You may have tried one of these in the last decade. Peach, Clubhouse, Meerkat, Vine, Ello. I could go on. I try to be pretty particular when I bring an app to the attention of my clients and digital community. I’m not saying I’m a futurist, more like a digital explorer, but I was shining the light early on about.

Great College Advice

Study Abroad in college has become, for many, an essential part of the university experience. Study abroad programs can be a great way to immerse yourself in a different culture, travel to new places, and become more acquainted with the world around us. How should study abroad factor into your college choices? First, however, let’s start with the way most people begin thinking about study abroad.

University Leaders will doubtless come away from the latest round of late summer conferences with ideas about how to seize some real estate in Metaverse.

How to Use Your Higher Education Data to Boost Enrollments. Higher education analytics are an essential aspect of enrollment marketing. University marketers can leverage data discoveries to make more informed decisions on a day-to-day basis. On a foundational level, university marketing departments collect vast amounts of data, including website visitors’ behavior (time on site, number of page views, etc.), but data points may not give enough context to inform decisions.

I had a conversation with a friend last night about the counter-intuitive challenges of working with AI/ML and the implications for using them in EdTech. I decided it might be useful to share my thinking more broadly in a blog post. Essentially, I see three stages in working with artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML). I call them the miracle, the grind, and the wall.

Restarting and resetting mean almost the same thing. Almost, but not quite. There is a subtle difference. When we stop doing something and then start doing it again, we restart. We can finish the spring semester, be off from teaching for a bit, and then restart again in the summer semester or fall.

Though the last two years with the pandemic limited study abroad opportunities , things are now returning to normal.

by Neil Raven. Efforts to widen higher education access have tended to focus on the provision of information and supportto those from under-represented backgrounds. This is perfectly understandable given the deep inequalities in HE progression rates that persist.
