A New Way to Foster Adaptive Teaching Online

Adaptive teaching is aimed at achieving successful instructional outcomes in classrooms by adopting different learning strategies to different student groups. Traditional teaching methods in higher education are adding a burden on students. Engaging with the study materials and resources creates a learning problem for students. It means that students that learning will be tedious and boring. Very few learners can link pedagogical methods to outcomes. 

Modern approaches in adaptive teaching offer a solution to these problems. Smart classrooms engage the students and equip students with the necessary knowledge and skills to benefit from various instruction channels that result in optimal learning. Adaptive teaching leverages various digital tools and mobile devices to support longstanding learning practices such as text books and resources. Technology is personalized toward individual learning styles.  Technology-enabled teaching is an invaluable pedagogic practice which can be applied to various classroom activities using powerful online tools and techniques:
