Michael L. Mathews and Dr. Mark Roberts presented on the Global Learning Center at Oral Roberts University. In the past year, the GLC has hosted over 88,000 visitors and trained 320 faculty members. It has provided students access to augmented and virtual reality technologies from 101 countries. The GLC aims to fulfill ORU's vision of globalizing education and has shown positive student outcomes like a 5% increase in grades for classes using its technologies. Future possibilities discussed include using blockchain for education credentials and global travel within virtual worlds with artificial intelligence.

- 4. Agenda – Global Learning Center • Purpose and Design • One-year Impact and Progress • Transforming Education • Demonstration of Augmented andVirtual Reality • Future Possibilities • Questions and Answers
- 5. 5 Definitions – Flipped Classroom Flipped classroom is an instructional strategy and a type of blended learning that reverses the traditional learning environment by delivering instructional content, often online, outside of the classroom. It moves activities, including those that may have traditionally been considered homework, into the classroom.
- 6. 6 Definitions – Flipped University Flipped University is an educational model that leverages the best of ‘fluid’ technology, and education to meet the needs of a ‘fluid’ world from one central location. OneCampus™ that is flipped around the world for the betterment of humanity.
- 7. 7 The Internet of … The internet of things (IoT) will go down in history as the worst name ever given to technology.The Internet is truly about people, so it should carry a more fitting label such as the Internet of freedom, the internet of dignity, the Internet of light, the Internet of people – not the Internet ofThings.” ~ Michael L. Mathews, United Nations, April 2016

- 18. 18 GLC Design Concept – Assets • 10,000 AVR learning environments accessible on smart phones. • 500,000 AVR immersive learning environments on a theater screens, googles, and iCube. • A Global ‘OneCampus’ methodology to simulcast and multicast all components around the world for traditional and remote attendees.
- 19. 19 GLC Design Concept – Assets • 100% access to all GLC assets via mobile apps for a global audience. • Capture lecture for live recording, archiving, and playback in all time zones. • AVR design software toolkit to develop and create any AVR learning experience from scratch. • Ability to provide training for customAVR designs.
- 21. OneYear Impact and Progress • 88,000 visitors and students have come to see, touch, and taste the experience of reaching around the world with new technology paradigms in education. • 320 faculty members trained on effective use of the technology and features. • Students from 101 countries exposed to the new technologies; each student having smart phone access to augmented and virtual reality, and global zoom connections.
- 22. OneYear Impact and Progress • Ten additional countries reached in new methods with the technologies; including Pakistan, Singapore, Ecuador, India, Bulgaria, Saudi Arabia, Norway, Brazil,Tanzania, and Russia. • Over 800 students and guest lectures piped-into the GLC from around the world. • Students creating their own AVR and Avatar learning environments.
- 23. OneYear Impact and Progress Students attending 65 different classes hosted in the GLC. Classes include… o Theology o International Business o Pre-Med, Biology, Physics o Engineering o Nursing o Sports Management o Finance o Business o Journalism and communications o AVR Programming
