New York/Mumbai – April 16, 2020
While students and faculty members are forced to stay at home in these difficult times of the COVID19 pandemic, educational institutions are trying to expedite the implementation of online classes and remote learning models.
In order to battle the challenges posed due to this unprecedented scenario, HurixDigital is helping higher education institutions to migrate their traditional courses to online platforms. This includes developing online course materials and converting traditional courseware into digital formats.
Hurix enables the rapid digitization of content into SCORM compliant courses and transformation of legacy content formats to multi-device compatible formats. The end result is future-proofing the content for the university. Hurix also offers consulting services for universities and colleges on migration to online learning platforms. In addition, the company creates differentiated content for online programs working alongside faculty members.
Online programs are developed in the most student-centric way and are faculty-driven in order to acclimatize everyone to the new learning style. In order to enable the transition from on-campus learning to online learning, Hurix also offers KITABOO – its widely used eBook platform.
KITABOO is an award-winning eBook publishing platform with over 10 million student users across the world, designed especially for educational institutions and publishers. It is a cloud-based content delivery platform that allows universities to create and deliver online learning programs on multiple devices, and track user engagement with the in-built analytics.
“From a global perspective, the current scenario looks quite daunting and uncertain. This uncertainty has led to a significant adoption of online learning tools by virtually all institutions. We are trying to help by offering solutions that will ease and accelerate the shift to eLearning from a traditional learning model. While we are waiting for the world to rebound, we need to address the current challenges, and online learning is the only way we can ensure that students continue receiving quality education. Keeping an authentic learning environment in mind, institutions are struggling to find ways of transitioning hands on and lab components of curriculum to a digital experience. Immersive simulations that we create, accomplish this in many instances.”, says Bryan Kantor, SVP- Higher Education Solutions, HurixDigital.
