Using personalized learning software in a large class

In the course Introduction to Business Administration, a large class with over 650 students, we offered students the possibility to learn with the personalized learning software cerego. After we introduced the tool in the first lecture, 435 students signed up and 375 became active users. We report on the integration of the software solution into the course design, user experiences from teaching assistants who created learning content, usage statistics from students, and course evaluations. In the discussion, we ask about the potentials of using personalized, cloud-based learning solutions in higher education, including more responsive instructor-student interactions.
