Improving the Learning Experience
Every day, faculty, staff and students across the University of Nebraska are using technology to design and deliver solutions that improve teaching, learning, research and the student experience.
Open Nebraska
To participate, students can select the “Open Nebraska” option under programs when completing a course search.
Digital Briefcase and Backpack
Digital Briefcase & Backpack is a University of Nebraska System initiative that streamlines and simplifies how students, faculty and staff connect to IT services—so they can learn, teach and work from wherever they are.
A clear, easy-to-understand digital toolkit is important to NU students, faculty, and staff who are operating remotely and need digital onboarding to key IT services.
Adaptive Courseware Community of Practice
Every student learns differently, and understanding what students know—and still need to learn—can be a challenge for instructors with large class sizes. That’s where adaptive courseware adds value: personalizing the learning experience for each student on an individual level.
Adaptive Courseware Community of Practice was launched in Spring of 2023. Faculty study the impacts of adaptive courseware in practice as students experience content that is automatically adjusted based on their individual progress. The goal? Better student outcomes and increased degree attainment.
Digital Accessibility
The University of Nebraska System believes access should not be a barrier. We aim to create environments where everyone, everywhere can access information.
Across all four of our campuses, we work toward a an accessible digital ecosystem. Systemwide training and standards, coordinated review processes, and expanded advocacy and education efforts that support the access of information technology are integral for faculty, staff and student success.
