I remember very vividly getting asked multiple times about which school I was going to choose and attend. In fact, I recall that question coming at me in about eight different forms for at least a year. It is a stressful time of life, and deciding on a college is probably the biggest decision a lot of us had to make up to this point in our lives. However, looking back, choosing Hope College was the best decision of my life.

This program focused on the future of online program management (OPM). Over time, OPMs have expanded to include student recruitment, student retention, and support. When online education began to emerge, many higher education institutions didn’t have the wherewithal and talent to ramp up online programs so many companies started offering OPM services in program conception and creation.

Higher Ed Connects: Curriculum

NOVEMBER 14, 2019

by Chris Mayer. High tuition and the resulting loan debt, along with low completion rates and concerns about how much students are actually learning in college, have led critics to call for the unbundling of higher education. Unbundling higher education involves creating learning opportunities that are shorter than traditional undergraduate degrees, and more focused on the development of a particular skill or acquisition of knowledge.

by Terri E. Givens. There are many stories to be told about students of color in college, and as I wrote in a column for Inside Higher Ed, finances are often the main issue for these students. For example, when I was an undergrad at Stanford University, it was a struggle for me financially. As someone who was a low-income, first-generation college student, I am painfully aware of the financial issues that students face when they arrive on a college campus.

Finding your “people” in college was one of the most intimidating things about college. It was a fresh start for me, a fresh start for everyone. I had a lot of questions, things like: Will I find people who like me and have similar interests? Will I grow in my faith through my friends? Will I find someone who I enjoy living with…(roommates are scary) It all started the first weekend that I arrived on campus – Orientation Weekend.

by Chris Mayer. Undergraduate curricular change at colleges and universities is undertaken for many reasons. At some institutions, the curriculum has been in place for many years, even decades, and it is time for a change. Demographic pressures and concerns about the value of degrees are also motivations for curricular change as some colleges and universities, especially liberal arts colleges, seek a stronger connection between the college experience and employment opportunities for students aft

By Fatma Katr. In a fast-paced world where rising human relation issues are often misrepresented or misinterpreted, higher education institutions are moving forward to diversify teaching methods when introducing these issues. One of those methods involves the use of virtual reality (VR) to evoke emotion and empathy among students. . Like any learning technology, VR can be integrated in university curriculums in useful ways, in the sense that it is able to tap into student emotions and their conc

A student graduates high school, goes on to college, completes his or her degree in four years, and then either continues to grad school or enters the workforce. by Shelley Seale. That is what the education-to-career path has traditionally looked like — but today’s typical higher education student is just as likely to be older when they enter (or return to) university, working while in school, a parent, a first-generation student — or any combination of these.
