What is the NGDLE?

Get used to seeing this acronym: NGDLE.

It stands for Next Generation Digital Learning Environment. Educause explains in 7 Things You Should Read About NGDLE:
NGDLE is an ecosystem of interconnected and flexible applications that support learning through five key domains: interoperability; personalization; analytics, advising, and learning assessment; collaboration; and accessibility and universal design.
Even if we're on the front end of teaching and learning and not actually building these learning networks ourselves, it behooves us to be part of the conversation about how they are designed and implemented and well-versed on how they work and impact teaching and learning.

Educause is hosting a webinar titled, "Sustainable Innovation + Faculty Choice + Student Centered Design = NGDLE" and it's free for any Educause member.* Even if you can't attend, you will receive the link afterward for viewing.  Did you miss the webinar? Watch it here!**
