Introducing Acadly Enterprise
Learn how institutional deployment of Acadly can help faculty and university leadership achieve higher goals
Acadly is a student engagement platform for synchronous teaching and learning. It helps professors boost interactivity and automate administrative chores in both online as well as in-person classes. For online teaching and learning, Acadly leverages integration with Zoom and adds interactivity and attendance automation features to Zoom’s core video conferencing experience.
How Acadly works in individual classrooms
Professors can use Acadly in their classrooms by setting up their respective courses. Two kinds of courses can be set up on Acadly:
- Acadly Basic courses are ideal for in-person teaching and learning. They include features such as polls, quizzes, and Acadly’s attendance automation feature for face-to-face classes
- Acadly Pro courses are ideal for online teaching and learning. They include Acadly’s Zoom integration feature and its attendance feature for online classes
However, for institutional deployment of Acadly across courses, there are certain gaps in the overall experience that remain unaddressed:
- Integration with a university’s LMS
- Automation of administrative tasks such as enrollment management and course setup
- Automation of tasks such as syncing the gradebook with the LMS
- Administrative dashboard to manage the deployment of Acadly across courses
Introducing Acadly Enterprise
Acadly Enterprise helps instructors streamline the administrative aspects of their experience, and helps administrators get insights on teaching and learning across the institution. Here’s a first look at the key features of Acadly Enterprise.
Early Alerts on Acadly Enterprise
Acadly generates valuable data on student learning and participation during classes and makes it available to instructors and universities on a realtime basis. This includes data points such as:
- Student attendance
- Participation in polls
- Quiz performance
- Discussion activity
- Post-class engagement
- Offline participation
- Engagement with content
However, collating and analysing data can be a complex task, especially on a realtime basis. Acadly Enterprise simplifies this process with realtime alerts on student performance based solely on their engagement with a course hosted on Acadly.
These alerts detail not only who is at-risk but also why the student has been flagged as “at-risk”. This makes it possible for instructors to identify the root cause for possible academic issues, such as poor attendance, lack of participation, or irregular engagement.
