  • 2. Attracting Prospects When high-school graduates are going to enroll in particular educational institutions, they are more than likely to follow them on social media to get more information about them. Current students can share their experience, thoughts, and opinions on the platforms so that candidates and their parents can get a deeper insight into the on-campus life. In a nutshell, online collaboration helps universities to stand out from the crowd.
  • When someone wants to complain about or give recognition to a particular service provider, they prefer doing that through online collaboration. This is mainly because there are many users who are ready to pass their own opinion on this issue instantly. This is how universities can use social media to monitor what has been said about their services and find a way to maintain or restore their reputation. It is important for unis to have a good reputation; otherwise, they may face problems associated with funding and recruitment.

  • Strategic planning for edtech is an endless journey — and not just because of constantly evolving hardware and software. Upgrading infrastructure, device maintenance, and ongoing professional development, in addition to program and device costs, means tech initiatives need permanent budget lines that take into account the total cost.
  • In any good budget, said Soumakian, boards should base spending on their goals and strategic priorities. So, if a priority is to be able to measure student outcomes based on new tech initiatives, then the board needs to reprioritize and invest in that goal.

  • Classrooms have plenty to share with one another from one area to another, which this platform would allow, and I really like having the kids join me live, ask questions back and forth or collaborate on a single podcast. Accessibility is key to ensuring that every student has access to a quality education, and the live transcript feature would also be very useful for our English language learners. You can’t learn a language unless you speak it, write it and work with it. From a personal perspective, I have a hearing deficiency and appreciate that we now have this tool to amplify one’s voice so that everyone can better hear what we’re saying. I actually recorded a four- or five-minute rant on Storytellers about the challenges I face at conferences when speakers don’t use microphone because they’re uncomfortable about it, and shared it to Spotify. Too often, we're focused on the specifics of how kids are sharing information rather than what they're sharing. Kids need options. If they don’t want to write that paper or present in front of the class way to show what they’ve learned, a podcast can support the same outcome.

  • The global eLearning market was worth an impressive $107 billion in 2015 [1]. By 2025, however, Research and Markets believe that it will reach a staggering total market value of $325 billion [1]. The reasons for this explosion in value come on the back of several main drivers: the need to educate vast numbers of people at low cost, the falling price of learning solutions, the needs of the modern workforce to engage in life-long learning, and the fact that learning through an internet portal is often more convenient than going to school. The majority of the growth in the eLearning market will come from demand in developing countries.
  • 2. The Self-Paced eLearning Market Will Decline To $33.5 Billion By 2021
  • 77% Of US Companies Used Online Learning In 2017

  • eLearning could reduce employee training time by as much as 40-60% [2]. Cutting training time means that workers can spend more time doing their primary role and companies don't need to organize as much cover.
  • eLearning may boost knowledge retention by an impressive 25-60% [2]
  • Deloitte, a professional services and research company, estimates that the average employee needs to dedicate around 1% of their time per week to training. Doing this, according to Deloitte, enables the worker to stay up to date with best practices and developments in their industry. 1% of the working week isn't much time at all. It translates to 24 minutes per week or 4.8 minutes per day, assuming a 5-day working week [14]. Arranging 4.8 minutes of training per day face-to-face would be impractical. But thanks to "microlearning"— a popular buzzword in the eLearning industry—companies can now take this approach. What's more, microlearning may be even more effective than regular learning because people are better at absorbing lots of small chunks of information than they are a few larger ones.
  • Data Suggests That When Employers Spend $1,500 Per Employee Per Year On Training, They Achieve Improvements In Profit Margins Of Around 24%
  • it's the conclusion of the American Society for Training and Development after a study of more than 2,500 firms
  • Data suggests that when employers spend $1,500 per employee per year on training, they achieve improvements in profit margins of around 24% [8]. Furthermore, for every additional $680 a company spends, shareholder return rises by 6%. Investing in the knowledge capital of a company, therefore, is just as important as investing in the physical capital [8].
  • This can be accomplished easily if the company opts for a value for money LMS.
  • Figures From An Open University Study Suggest That eLearning Cuts Energy Consumption By 90% And Slashes CO2 By More Than 85%
  • 72% of organizations believe that eLearning puts them at a competitive advantage [2]. eLearning is a flexible tool that firms can use to provide them with educational support when they need it. Keeping employees apprised of changes in the market is a significant challenge for many enterprises.
  • Data from a Gallup poll in 2015 found that only 32% of employees in the US were "engaged" and that more than 51% were "unengaged" [9]
  • According to data from The Molly Fletcher Company, eLearning helps firms achieve an 18% boost in employee engagement leading to higher productivity and customer satisfaction [2].
