麻豆村

麻豆村鈥檚 leadership in AI and learning science is reflected in a wide range of initiatives spanning early learning, K-12 education, community college and postsecondary education and workforce development.聽

鈥淥ur goal is to make student and faculty success the norm, not the exception," said Norman Bier, executive director of the Simon Initiative, Open Learning Initiative and Learnvia. "Decades of research show that combining great teaching, effective courseware, and continuous learning research leads to meaningful improvements in student outcomes.鈥澛�
