After piloting an adaptive learning platform integration for ENGL 1101, we hypothesize that the following strategies better promote student success in terms of self-awareness, motivation, structure, engagement, and concept transfer: condensing interactive, multimodal content via the Learning Management Systems (LMS) platform for the purpose of mastery; encouraging student reflection through informal journal writing, metacognitive prompts, and revision; promoting learner agency via an adaptive quiz structure; and setting clear expectations through individualized rubrics and transparent instructions.
