The Next Generation Digital Learning Environment
Next-generation digital learning environments (NGDLE) are online learning environments that take us beyond the LMS to fully support the needs of today's students and instructors. In this session, we'll explore the potential benefits, characteristics, features, and barriers to adoption of these environments. We'll also consider what we have learned about the NGDLE thus far and consider the future of this development.
