02/05/21 To help academic administrators improve entry-level courses for digital learning during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, Every Learner Everywhere and the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities have created a free guide focused on best practices for equity and student success. "Improving Critical Courses Using Digital Learning & Evidence-based Pedagogy" offers strategies for managing high-quality digital learning environments, information on learning modalities, links to resources and more. As the guide emphasizes, "Higher education's response to the COVID-19 pandemic has ignited the need to improve student success in high-priority courses and to improve equity for Black, Latinx, Indigenous, poverty-affected, and first-generation learners." By encouraging administrators to work with faculty to leverage equitable digital learning technology in their course design, the guide aims to improve student success and equity outcomes.
