Guroo Producer is an authoring tool that enables the design and creation of learning programs, supporting education providers and businesses to deliver beautifully immersive, self-paced, blended and work-integrated adaptive learning. The Australian Graduate School of Management (AGSM) is part of the University of New South Wales Business School offering general management, executive and leadership development programs. Guroo Producer's simple, but powerful, learning portal 'add-on' enables organizations like AGSM to deliver General Manager Programmes using Learning Locker® and the xAPI as supporting technologies.
The challenge AGSM and Guroo Producer embarked upon together was to update and modernize the delivery of their weeklong General Manager Program to a Blended Learning Program, delivered online and in the classroom to cohorts of emerging business leaders and executive managers.
Part of their challenge was also recognizing that learners who sign up to the AGSM program are not ‘owned’ by AGSM – these participants do not work for AGSM, nor do they exist in their HRIS or LMS systems. LMSs are largely designed to support learners with ongoing learning needs, whereas AGSM sign-up to and complete their short course and that’s where their learning journey ends.
xAPI and LRS’s are supporting organizations like AGSM to overcome these challenges, to deliver streamlined Blended Learning courses to learners who place a high value on the time they spend in the classroom.
Guroo Producer and AGSM set out to deliver a simple, streamlined digital program of ‘pre-work’ outside the constraints of the undergraduate-focused University LMS. The pre-work was designed to ensure that participants were familiar with subject matter prior to the face-to-face component of the course, in order to focus on practical skills, engagement and simulations in the classroom.
They then collected feedback from the participants during the face-to-face component, with the aim of using the data collected to inform and adapt each day’s classroom time.
