Digital transformation (Dx) describes a cultural, workforce, and technological shift, enabled by advances in technology that include analytics, artificial intelligence, cloud, mobile, social networks, storage capabilities, and more. Combined with external drivers such as increased expectations from students for a seamless experience, decreased funding for higher ed, and a growing need to advocate for its benefits, these forces make it possible to think differently about higher education, with the potential for new business models, better student outcomes, and different, more innovative, approaches for teaching learning, and research.
Members can use the Digital Transformation (Dx) Institutional Self-Assessment in groups on your campus to build cross-institutional understanding about your digital transformation initiatives.
