Digital Learning Strategy | Office of the Vice-President, Academic and Provost – University of Waterloo
The University of Waterloo has long been a Canadian leader in distance and online education, and is proud of its title as Canada’s more innovative university. By drawing on its resources and aligning its focus, Waterloo can establish itself as a leader once more in the evolving arena of digital teaching and learning.
The Digital Learning Strategy (DLS) is an institutional project, aligned with the University’s 2020 – 2025 strategic plan. It was designed with the goal of developing a comprehensive framework for digital instruction and program design, including selection of digital teaching and learning tools and support for the learning experience.
The Digital Learning Strategy Working Group has developed a set of recommendations and directions, which will be a great accelerant to bringing the DLS key strategic directions to life for the University. This framework is foundational and will be tested as elements of it are implemented through ongoing consultations with the community.
General oversight of DLS and implementation of the framework will be the responsibility of the Associate Vice-President, Academic (AVPA), David DeVidi. The AVPA portfolio collaborates and coordinates with other units, councils, and functions of the University, and David’s leadership on other institutional initiatives will help to seamlessly integrate this framework across the institution. The DLS will serve as an integral component in helping build a resilient University of Waterloo.
The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
