ClassLink Reduces the Strain of Remote Learning for Northwest ISD with Access, Analytics, and Rostering
Classlink and Northwest Independent School District
User: K-12
Goal: Evolution to transformative digital learning for students, parents, and teachers
Challenge: When instruction moved online, everyone in the district needed access to more digital resources, automated rostering, and analytics to show when and which students were not engaging in online learning activities.
Solution: Tool adoption and the rostering process are notably faster because of the OneRoster standard.
Learning Impact: Northwest Independent School District used ClassLink to quickly shift 25,000 students to remote learning while avoiding the login and access issues that could have disrupted education. Built-in detailed usage analytics give teachers get a behind-the-scenes window of what their students are doing in a remote learning situation.

Integrated Education and Training Platform with Seamless Integration of On-Demand and Live Streaming
IMS Japan Society Learning Impact Award Winner
Digital Knowledge Co., Ltd.
User: K-12, higher education, workforce/lifelong learner
Goals: Deliver online education through live distribution in corporate training and school lessons.
Challenge: Live streaming solutions alone are not enough to make training and lessons more effective. In addition, the decentralization of functions by multiple solutions leads to the decentralization of learning history and educational content, which hinders the improvement of learning efficiency and educational effect.
Solution: LMS and Zoom will be linked to realize online collective education through live or on-demand distribution.
Learning Impact: Currently leveraged by five organizations and reaching over 500 users, this feature seamlessly integrates Zoom and the LMS. Users register, teach, and manage their classes and lessons solely from the LMS, eliminating the need to switch between the two solutions, making learning more efficient. Face-to-face learning can be brought online, as live delivery can now be done from the LMS. This reduces the costs associated with arranging venues as well as travel time and travel costs for learners. It also makes it possible to offer classes to learners in distant locations.
