Abstract :
Ubiquitous connectivity to the internet coupled with Gen Z preferences to connect and share their learning experience anytime, anywhere, presents an opportunity for academic institutions to promote social learning practices amongst the students and to engage with them in a better way to improve learning outcomes. Technology enablement for capture of student interactions presents rich analytics to map and measure student progress in a connected educational ecosystem. This paper presents an ongoing study of the process of implementing technology enabled social learning in a leading engineering college in India. This paper presents major observations and conclusions from this ongoing experiment.
