A Pearson Case Study
The customer, Technological University Dublin, faced a challenge with low student engagement and performance in its Fluid Mechanics course. Professor Gerard Nagle found that traditional teaching methods were failing to bridge the gap between complex theory and practical application for future engineers. To address this, the university turned to the vendor Pearson and its product, Mastering Engineering.
Pearson's solution, Mastering Engineering, was implemented to redesign assessments and provide students with regular practice and instant feedback. This led to a clear and measurable outcome: student performance improved by 10-20% after just a few hours of bi-weekly homework using the platform. Engagement soared as students actively sought clarification and participated with the material, creating a more collaborative and motivating classroom culture.
