Advance HE Surveys Conference 2018 - Personalized education using CogBooks - Paul Smith

The goal of this project was to investigate how adaptive learning can tailor the educational experience to each individual. Adaptive learning technology allows students to navigate their own personal learning path typically not possible through traditional lecturing. This study has explored how this approach can improve inclusive/personalised teaching by allowing learners to self-select the format of materials offered to them using CogBooks software. The aim was to improve student experience/satisfaction in the area of technology-enhanced learning and this pilot study in BSc(Hons)/FdSc chemistry teaching at MMU has shown that this student-centred teaching method can lead to significant educational gains.
