Practice
WCET’s Practice Work
WCET equips members with information about promising practices they need to effectively experiment with, develop, and support digital learning technologies. WCET disseminates digital learning research and success stories to assist members in selecting evidence-based teaching, learning, and student support strategies.
Sharing Lessons Learned from Members
WCET is a cooperative of members who share what they have learned about their digital learning innovations. Many of the resources shared in the Practice topics are blogs, papers, research, and webinars featuring WCET members sharing with others in the community who are eager to learn from their experiences.
What’s New: Equity
As part of our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion at WCET, we’ve launched a new resource page focused on Equity. We hope these resources will enable our members to better serve their students and expand access to high-quality digital learning to all students, especially racially minoritized students and students from other historically underserved communities.

Practice Topics
Equity
Achieving an equitable higher education system, one where systemic inequities are proactively addressed, is critical to student success.
Quality
High-quality online learning is incredibly powerful and effective, and learners of all backgrounds should expect a learning environment that helps them reach their goals.
Assessment & Academic Integrity
Assuring that the student enrolled in a course is the same one who completes assessments using technical and/or pedagogical methods.
Accessibility
Digital learning technologies require using design techniques to assist those with disabilities and everyone accessing the content.
Open Educational Resources
Designed to lower student textbook costs, OER also helps faculty make content culturally appropriate and improve student learning.
Cybersecurity & Data Protection
With the increased use of digital learning technologies in higher education, measures are required to protect data and avoid service disruptions.
Learning Analytics
Measurement, collection, analysis, and reporting of data about learners to understand and optimize learning and its environments.
