The brand new E-education system at KDI School

KDI School, like many academic organizations in recent years, has launched a brand new “E-education” system to offer quicker access to the School’s academic services. This new interactive platform allows students to connect and collaborate with their peers much more conveniently which ultimately helps them study more efficiently and effectively. It also aims to reflect the individual needs of new students who may need to attend foundational courses such as basic math and economics courses online.  In the near future, KDI School also hopes to incorporate ‘Turnitin’ to help students check their own papers for improper citations or unintentional plagiarism before submitting them for a course.
Not only is the new E-education system great for students, it’s also a significant upgrade for KDI School’s professors and alumni members. E-education is designed to support KDI School’s alumni by giving them easy access to special lectures, lecture series, public talks, and non-degree programs offered by the School. It functions like a remotely accessible, self-paced classroom which helps professors reach a wider audience with their courses and keeps alumni members close to the School even after graduation.  

KDI School now on iTunes U

E-learning courses developed by KDI School are now on iTunes U. 20 classroom-like lectures or documentary videos (mostly 10~15 minutes long) on Korea’s developmental experience by experts from KDI School and KDI are available for Apple users. KDI School on iTunes U allows the School to share Korea’s knowledge and experience in its socio-economic development to a wider audience. 
Some of the more popular contents available on the platform include, “Public-Private Partnership,” “The Role of Vocational Training,” and “Reform on Transportation System.”
KDI School hopes that the site will become a gateway to further knowledge for its alumni and students to help them continue their studies anytime, anywhere.
All materials are online, free, and publicly available. For more information, please visit KDI School on iTunes U (itunesu.kdischool.ac.kr). Should you have suggestions or inquiries regarding KDI School on iTunes U, please contact the e-Learning Team at js_jang@kdisSchoolchool.ac.kr
