ALT-Classroom: Building a Dev Studio Inside Academia for Student and Partner Success - Ann DeMarle
Much of education delivery is through formal coursework; pre-set learning objectives, and grading systems but what happens when that model is flipped and students possess the expertise? Recently celebrating its 10th anniversary, Champlain College’s Emergent Media Center is a fearless learning community designing dynamic processes and tools. In its interdisciplinary studio, students work alongside partners including IBM, Ford, and the United Nations developing games, apps, VR, and blended media solutions to complex issues. For the client this has meant successful, innovative approaches. For the students this has meant 95% persistence to graduation and career placement in 6 months of graduation.
