Ep. 214: Voices of Student Success: When Nontraditional Students Become the Norm
Inside Higher Ed’s Voices of Student Success discusses what colleges need to rethink as “nontraditional” students increasingly reflect today’s college population.
How colleges can foster belonging and learning communities in online courses.
By Sara Custer
In this episode, we’re bringing you a conversation between Inside Higher Ed’s senior editor for special content, Colleen Flaherty, and Stephanie Moore, an associate professor in organization, information and learning sciences at the University of New Mexico, from the Digital Universities event in Salt Lake City earlier this year. A leading researcher in online learning, Moore addresses what she sees is a false binary between in-person and online learning, arguing that more modalities means meeting more diverse student needs and keeps colleges nimble.
She also talks about where belonging fits into online learning and what strategies educators can use to promote it.
And drawing on Seneca and Quintilian, she tells Flaherty why she thinks AI will be no more disruptive than any other communication technology that’s come before it.
