Innovation in Skills Development and Delivery Webinar Series: Part 2: Using Adaptive Instructional Systems for Skills-based Learning

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Singapore is a leader in the field of workforce development. It has invested significant resources in the development of skills maps and the instructional infrastructure needed to help workers develop those skills. Now it is interested in exploring options for using adaptive instructional systems to support that process.

The webinar will consist of a 40-minute presentation followed by 20 minutes of questions and answers. The presentation will focus on the challenges and opportunities of implementing adaptive instructional systems for skills-based learning. It will outline the relationships between technology and pedagogy that are critical to the success of an adaptive systems implementation.

This webinar will include clear explanations of what adaptive instructional systems are and how they work, specific examples of how they are being used in courses and data on the results from the implementation of the systems at scale.
