7 Things You Should Know About...

This week on the education blog we'll look at a resource that may fill an existing gap for you: EDUCAUSE's library of "Seven things you should know about..." 

These short meta-analyses provide a synthesized, at-a-glance summary of many pressing issues in education today. Each entry also features case studies and examples that provide down-to-earth help for everyday practitioners such as ourselves. I believe you'll find these resources informative but also accessible and easy to read. Enjoy!


For example:

Seven things you should know about:

1. Research on Active Learning Classrooms
2. Developments in Learning Analytics
3. The 2017 Key Issues in Teaching and Learning
4. Personalized Learning
5. Institutional Self-Assessment 
6. Cross-Institutional Collaboration
7. Developments in Instructional Design 
8. Gamification of Education

And many more. The archive goes back to 2005 and contains about 150 discrete articles.
