Kortrijk, Belgium, 28 April 2021 - As part of a move that started several years ago, INSEAD Business School has launched GO-Live, a powerful platform that helps executives continue their learning from anywhere in the world, based on weConnect virtual classrooms.
With GO-Live powered by weConnect, the multi-campus institution has taken a distinctive approach to live virtual teaching, following two broad principles. The first is being learner-centric. 'You want to keep the learner empowered, active and engaged so that they're immersed in the experience, just as if they were there face-to-face,' says Zemsky. 'The other key principle is to allow faculty to bring their deep skills of creating magic in the classroom from a face-to-face world to a live virtual setting.'
Jan van Houtte, Vice President of the Teaching & Learning division at Barco said: 'The education sector is really embracing digital transformation at the moment. The most forward-thinking educational institutions are using it boost engagement and deliver courses in a way that works with students' lives, meets their always-rising expectations and, most importantly, brings in valuable new revenue streams to facilitate further growth.'
As Peter Zemsky points out, 'The future of management education is blended. Our commitment is to work with our faculty and HR leaders in how best to construct programs out of all the possibilities, face-to-face, recorded asynchronous and now live virtual delivery as well.'
