Andrea Nixon, Director of Educational Research, served on the inaugural panel of the Liberal Arts Consortium for Online Learning’s (LACOL) Online Colloquium Series. The panel titled “Learning Data: What do we know? What do we want to know?” also featured colleagues from Pomona, Swarthmore, Williams, and Haverford Colleges. Nixon presented a case study centered on Carleton’s experimentation with an adaptive quizzing tool designed to help students make greater gains in learning quantitative skills. Based on this initial experimentation and analysis, Carleton will be launching an experimental online bridge program called the Carleton Undergraduate Bridge Experience (CUBE).
