Session: Session 4
Room: Room 603 (6F)
Presentation Type: Oral Presentation
This presentation explores how rebundling education and leveraging learning analytics can transform higher education through 1:1 online academic student support. Historically, low student motivation and engagement have plagued online education, resulting in high attrition. Our approach addresses these challenges by providing 1:1 online academic support seven days a week, including evenings. We examine the model's impact on student success, retention, and engagement, highlighting best practices and innovative approaches. Our analysis demonstrates that combining learning analytics with tailored online support personalises the educational journey and improves overall academic outcomes. This approach fosters a more inclusive and effective learning environment, ensuring all students have the resources they need to thrive in higher education.
