Program Description

The at ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ University is a collaborative learner-centered program that embraces technological innovation through collaboration and active and authentic learning. In creating significant learning environments (CSLE) by giving learners choice ownership and voice through authentic learning opportunities (COVA) we help our learners grow into digital leaders who can embrace the opportunities of the future.

In our online program, we create and model significant learning environments where the learner takes control and ownership of their learning. Through authentic learning opportunities ADL students learn how to purposefully assemble all the key components of effective learning and create their own significant learning environments that will then, in turn, help their learners to learn how to learn.
