Adaptive Learning Technologies

Hello, everyone.

My name is Nicole Coats, and today we're going to

be talking about adaptive learning technology and how it applies

to education.

In today's modern air of technology, learning is becoming a

more personalized experience for students and instructors.

So let's learn a little bit more about what adaptive

learning technology is.

Is a custom learning experience that addresses the unique needs

of what an individual needs through just in time.

Feedback, pathways and resource is.

So how exactly does it work?

It uses computer algorithms to orchestrate the interaction with the

learner and delivers custom resource is and learning activities to

address the unique needs of each learner.

So with this, we need to know a little bit

more about the history.

And how did adaptive wearing technology start to come about?

With the history of adaptive learning, we converse.

See it?

In the 19 fifties, it was rooted in cognitive psychology

with the work of behaviorist B.

F. Skinner.

Then we see it more.

In the 19 seventies as it gained popularity through the

artificial intelligence movement and also began Teoh gain more popularity

in the 19 eighties as well, and today it is

adopted by the progressive industries like Amazon and Netflix to

anticipate preferences and forward thinking organisations.

We always hear people saying, I think my phone is

listening to me as they see an advertisement for something

They were just talking about that day, and this is

part of why that happens through adaptive learning technologies.

So what are the benefits of adaptive learning technologies and

education so we can see that it boost learning outcomes.

It also provides individual instructions with instant feedback for students,

giving them the ability to self correct.

It also gives teachers insights into students, needs helping them

Taylor a learning plan for them.

And it has the potential to give real time updates

to enhance students learning plans.

So here is an example of a real life application

of adaptive learning technology.

Here we can see that a student is struggling with

long division.

So if she is using adaptive learning technology, that technology

can see what does she already know then based off

of her answers, it can see what the learner should

experience next.

And after that experience, it can see if the algorithm

that applied to that Lerner didn't improve anything for that,

Lerner If not, do they need to think of another

algorithm for her?

Based off the students, Answers and algorithm was created to

select the right item at the right time for the

student as they learned, and this help that customize learning

experience catering to that where students needs in Long division.

She's very happy about it, too.

So now we can see some popular programs of adaptive

learning technologies.

We have Smart Sparrow that was founded in 2011.

It's an online learning platform that specializes in adaptive and

interactive learning experiences, and it's unique because it's 1/2 online

platform and half service approach, with teachers stepping in as

well. Its biggest partnership is with Arizona State University.

We can see Newton was founded in 2008.

It is working to give higher education instructors as much

information as possible for adaptive learning.

They're learning analytics, deliver students insights to educators so they

can understand which lesson stick and which don't.

It's so effective than the last seven years.

They forge 23 partnerships with big named education companies and

schools. We have Dream Box that focuses on closing the

math gaps in elementary and middle school age settings.

So the software is flexible for each individual learner, so

educators can provide the right lesson every day and then

identifies opportunities for learners who are falling behind and enriches

the students.

The learning of students ahead of the curve.

And then teachers saw a 58% increase of their students

mass for when using Dream Box 60 minutes a week

and then scoop pad.

Its versatility makes it a popular choice among educators.

The software provides several levels of automation so that you

can be as hands on as you'd like.

Almost 220,000 teachers and over two million learners use the

program to transform their learning experience and one of scoop

pads. Integrated schools saw growth of 21% in English and

7% in math on state tests, standardized test scores.

But with everything happening in the world today, especially with

Cove in 19 pandemic, we can see many teachers and

students had to alert about distance learning in this adaptive

technology. So the current trend in distant learning calls for

the use of adaptive learning to implement intelligent, dynamic behaviour

in the learning environment.

We can also see that this adaptive learning technology can

be incorporated to facilitate group collaboration within distance learning for

environments like forums or research resource sharing service is we

can see this through Microsoft teams through zooms calls they

all provide additional resource is for teachers and students.

So in conclusion, when adaptive learning technologies smoothly introduced to

classrooms, it should be easier for students to enjoy the

software's benefits.

These benefits Mayberry.

But the proponents believe the technology can improve education quality

through continuous analysts and customize content.

Thanks everyone for joining me today, and I hope he

learned a little bit about adaptive learning technology.
