Two years ago the prestigious Northwestern University Prosthetic-Orthotics Center (NUPOC) was facing a bottom line challenge: more students were looking to enroll in a program with limited resources and facilities. The Center made a bold move by completely transitioning to a blended learning format, integrating the most advanced educational technologies – including Mediasite – into the curriculum. NUPOC's combination of online instruction with onsite clinical coursework has fostered collaborative learning environments that increased the number of graduating practitioners while holding the line on administrative expenses.
Join Jodi Fox, Director of Distance Learning, as she shares strategies NUPOC used to:
- Boost annual enrollment by 50 percent
- Reduce students’ non-tuition costs by up to 60 percent
- Develop a core content delivery system with Mediasite, featuring 350 live and on-demand asynchronous presentations
- Create a vital, exciting and interactive learning experience through Mediasite lectures, special guests, instant messaging and live chats
