Strategic Education Initiatives (SEI) in the MIT Office of Open Learning supported MIT’s collaborations with other universities, foundations and trusts, non-governmental organizations, and national governments to experiment with and implement digital learning. Some SEI projects spanned across nations and hundreds of schools, helping to advance the field of digital learning for practitioners, researchers, and learners at MIT and around the world.
SEI also partnered with faculty to create new digital tools for use in MITx courses in edX and in residential teaching. SEI’s work in other settings can lead to new pedagogy and curriculum design at MIT. Through these initiatives, MIT is furthering its mission to advance learning worldwide.
The Strategic Education Initiatives unit of the Office of Open Learning was led by Vijay Kumar with Brandon Muramatsu and Jeff Merriman as Associate Directors from 2014 to 2017.
