Technology has changed the way education has traditionally been disseminated—revolutionizing the dynamics of the entire teaching and learning process in the classroom and beyond. With traditional educational models, students are often burdened to outperform in their academic and professional careers—without having adequate access to technology and a customized learning experience. Institutions realize that overall student achievement is likely to rise when learning is tailored to individual students' strengths, needs, and personal interests. “Personalized learning is an invitation for educators to create opportunities for its students to learn at their own pace with a variety of teaching styles, and formats available to them,” begins Ginger Ackeman, VP of Sales and Marketing, Jigsaw. The power of immersive and personalized learning is one of the key differentiators of Jigsaw—a virtual learning platform provider that offers a multi-dimensional immersive learning environment to effectively engage and motivate students and trainees.

“At Jigsaw we focus on the learning experience and turn passive listeners into active learners,” points-out Ginger. “Based on the individual’s learning style, Jigsaw provides a platform—that accommodates a variety of teaching techniques and learning styles to let each student learn in their own unique style so they optimize their learning time in the classroom.” Jigsaw’s virtual classrooms change the dynamics of teaching and learning by allowing instructors and students to work together using various tools designed to let students actively participate in class, work on projects and review information independently and with the instructors. This immersive type of learning changes the dynamics for the learners by allowing them to “pull” information as needed and create their own learning path for problem solving, critical thinking, and creativity.

To strengthen the learning experience for each student in the class, Jigsaw monitors real time progress of each student and records their activities, performance, and results in multiple formats for further analytics. With these insights, facilitators can easily identify—who is actively involved and document the level of engagement for individuals to ensure accountability.
