Engage your Engineering students with leading textbooks and digital courseware
The technical complexity and depth of content in Engineering courses has always created challenges around student engagement and progress, but Covid has exacerbated this further. A 2021 HEPI student survey demonstrated that only 54% of students were satisfied with the quality of their online teaching and learning resources.
So just how can we address the decreasing engagement and retention and the need for greater inclusivity and flexibility for learners?
This is where blending robust, digital learning solutions with in-person teaching can offer real value and many universities have been finding ways to address this head on.
