Leaders in the higher education sector
converged in Panama to discuss the merits of a collaborative
environment to improve access to higher education
NEORIS, a global innovation services company, presented its
hyper personalized education model that promises to disrupt the way
that individuals, groups and organizations evolve and align to new
global digital demands in the higher education sector. More than
200 leaders from 41 higher education institutions throughout Latin
America that attended the Ilumno Summit 2018 in Panama discovered
how to accelerate digital transformation and adopt a
student-centric strategy during a keynote address delivered by
Anthony DeLima, NEORIS Head of Digital Transformation.
Ilumno is the largest pan-regional higher education network of
universities in the Latin America and Caribbean region. By
implementing technology and innovation within its partners, Ilumno
seeks to increase access to quality education, while growing
student outcomes and improving lives in the communities it
serves.
Technology is reshaping every aspect of our lives including how
students, teachers and educational institutions, interact, operate,
and deliver value. De Lima shared NEORIS’ proprietary research
focusing on how institutions of higher learning need to customize
the learning experience in a digital native society, shifting from
mobile first to AI (Artificial Intelligence) first to keep in line
with global pacing.
“As the economy becomes globalized and information based, those
with greater access to education will benefit the most,” said Pete
Pizarro, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ilumno.
Pizarro said that “connectivity is transforming emerging
economies, labor markets and education systems, driving the demand
for more extensive and more dynamic in-person and online learning,”
and emphasized that “universities must adapt quickly to continue
serving as a viable source of education for the new generations of
students.”
“Change drivers such as online learning, cloud-based work
spaces, technical specialization, millennials and re-entry students
are creating a digital mindset for a hyper personalized,
student-centric experience,” said Anthony DeLima, NEORIS Head of
Digital Transformation. “The journey is a complex one that involves
the fundamental restructuring of how education is delivered,
achieving a more collaborative educational model, helping faculty
to transform itself from being teachers to educational coaches and
leveraging technology to enable smart interactions with students.
Diagnosing and assessing where you are on the digital
transformation journey and developing the digital roadmap is an
important first step. Taking bold action, getting out of the
traditional comfort zone and having the courage to experience the
possible are critical factors to achieving change.”
