Student Success: Flexible learning part one

As part of our Connect Benefit Series for 2021-22 on Student Success, the flexible learning literature review project looked in-depth into 105 research articles published between 2016 and 2021, including Advance HE’s report on the topic. The papers reviewed detailed research undertaken across the world, using quantitative, qualitative and mixed methods, including a few conceptual articles. Initial findings reveal that Covid19 was a key driver for the increased adoption of flexible learning by HEIs. Nonetheless, flexible learning was also a deliberate strategy in some HEIs.

These podcasts complement this review, looking at different, yet equally important aspects of flexible learning.

In the first episode of the series, Stuart Norton, Senior Advisor at Advance He and Dave Thomas, Senior Advisor at Advance HE discuss the opportunity to infuse diversity within higher education to ensure practices and process are flexible to promote student success for increasingly diverse cohorts, as well as advice on how institutional systems and structures can support flexible learning.
