Adaptive learning offers new opportunities to students, instructors, and institutions. However, there is still much to understand about this technology and its impact on learning, outcomes, and behaviors, in particular. Before we can provide effective guidance on how to engage with these systems, we must first gain a much deeper understanding of the behaviors that can emerge. This session will present new findings on how students behave in adaptive learning courses. We will present new prototype behaviors that emerge as a direct result of the self-paced nature of adaptive learning with a comparison of these across different domains and institutions.
Outcomes: Articulate the new behaviors that can emerge in the self-paced and self-directed space enabled by adaptive learning * Understand the challenges and open questions surrounding these new prototype behaviors * Take a more informed approach to their guidance of students in an adaptive learning setting
