Greg Niemeyer Presents at InstructureCon 2015

ThumbnailIntructureCon is a conference by Canvas, a learning content management system used by over 1,200 universities and schools. In three joint presentations, UCOP (UC Online), ETS, and BCNM Director Greg Niemeyer presented various aspects of a suite of learning tools emphasizing engagement tracking and collaboration.

The tools show how social aspects of learning are not correlated to test performance, but are equally relevant. All presentations were very well attended by technology groups from other institutions and the team received numerous requests to license their suite of engagement tools!

Next steps: finding the right partners to further develop, scale, and commercialize these tools.
