Our traditional model of learning in the classroom with a sage-on-stage paradigm has been tested since the beginning of the pandemic. Campuses, students, and faculty have adapted to remote technologies, blended learning, flipped classrooms, and online learning at rates no one ever thought possible. As students return back to campuses, we need to rethink our classrooms to take advantage of the paradigm shifts and build better learning environments for our students.

Students now expect a more mature campus technology experience. Thenew Students expect an environment and applications that blend the power of on-demand, personalized, and self-paced learning environments with the power of immersive, facilitated, and collaborative classroom experiences. Closing this gap seems almost impossible, but this has been achieved in leading institutions through the power of innovation and integration at campuses worldwide by thoughtful leaders.
