This article is basically a marketing message in the Blackboard-ownes e-learn Magazine, but I think we should take note. Katie Gallagher writes, "Academic effectiveness serves as central focus for institutions of higher education across the globe." I see this as an effort to define (and perhaps own) the term 'academic effectiveness'. What does it mean? The concept is explaiend in several different ways in this article, ranging from a list of practices (content delivery, assessment, continuous improvement...) to product design criteria ("universal, accessible digital content that improves instruction") to more practices ("Creating inclusive learning experiences", "Plagiarism prevention and cultivating appropriate attributions,"...). The content was created in early January but only arrived in my email today.
