Integration & Benefits
The broad range of available content has been specifically selected to complement existing teaching of a variety of different subjects. Additionally, we have drawn upon our years of experience in online learning technologies to ensure this content can be integrated into existing learning environments, or licensed via the HLSN platform for student access.
This forward-thinking solution provides a wealth of benefits to the university, including:
A flipped classroom mode of learning – enabling a more enriched teaching experience for lecturers
Allowing learners to grasp core knowledge at their own pace, in a challenging but engaging way
Reducing the reliance on teaching time and the traditional text book, allowing for larger cohort sizes to be supported by the same number of staff
An intelligent platform, which is able to produce valuable data on student participation, understanding and progress
