Online Learning Update

By Dian Schaffhauser, THE Journal
The Friday Institute for Educational Innovation, which conducts research and delivers professional development out of its operations at North Carolina State University, has recently connected its MOOC platform for educators to the Learner Positioning System developed by Digital Promise Global. The institute’s MOOC-Ed provides massive, open, online courses specifically for educators. The system from Digital Promise is an online resource that lets educators look up current research on aspects of personalized learning. Each micro-credential starts with an overview of a construct or idea in personalized learning supported by research to help educators gain a deeper understanding of its importance in the learning process.
