Brief Abstract

Meet the 2018 DLIAward Institutional Awardees. Each institution that submitted for this year's award shared a common intention – that student success is positively impacted by digital learning initiatives. We know the field is young and that “success” is subjective, however, we hope that these exceptional pioneers inspire others and increase the number of underrepresented students completing college across the U.S. Representing the winning Institution-Led teams are; 

  • Dale Johnson, Arizona State University
    "Transforming College Algebra: Eliminating developmental math and using adaptive courseware to enable student success"
  • Suzanne Moody, Salt Lake Community College
    "Redesigning Quantitative Literacy Pathways for Student Success: Improving Learning Efficiency, Access and Outcomes in Community College Math Using OER Courseware"
  • Thomas B. Cavanagh, University of Central Florida
    "Using Innovative Adaptive Courseware to Enable Student Success in Gateway Mathematics Courses"
