Understanding is Everything

As the largest EdTech ecosystem on a global scale, Anthology leverages our vast experience to help clients solve their challenges of today and prepare for the future. 

Our commitment to the members of HEITSA is no different. We are proud to support HEITSA in their mission to transform higher education in South Africa, and are pleased to share some of the recent ways in which we are making an impact in both the global and South African community.  

Since Anthology took ownership of Blackboard Learn, clients have benefited from hundreds of product updates in the past year alone. We launched features that empower instructors to better understand student engagement and quickly recognize and reach out to any learner needing help.

In addition, Blackboard Learn by Anthology was the first major Learning Management System to provide time-saving features facilitated by artificial intelligence. The AI Design Assistant in Blackboard Learn helps instructors quickly build engaging courses, freeing them up to do what they do best – teach! And, following our commitment to clients and community, Anthology is the first vendor to offer these features as standard in the core Learn Ultra product.

Blackboard Learn is complemented by other core components of the Anthology solution suite, all built to support the learner and improve university efficiencies.

Anthology Ally may be used with Blackboard Learn or a number of other Learning Management Systems. Students are unique and so is the way they learn. The solution allows learners to consume content in the format that works best for them. Alternative formats can even extend to the ability to translate content and access it in another language, ensuring that language barriers do not hinder the learning process. This feature facilitates inclusivity, enabling international students and non-native speakers to grasp concepts more effectively and actively participate in their educational journey.

The student information system (SIS), Anthology Student helps drive a robust student experience with easy-to-use tools that give advisors and administrators insight into student registration, degree progress, and future career planning. Anthology Reach, our out of the box constituent relationship management (CRM) solution leverages  Microsoft Dynamics and helps universities manage admissions, student success, retention, alumni, advancement, and more., thus proving a 3600 view of our students.

Because of our holistic EdTech ecosystem, our vision is to help break down silos that currently exist in institutions. We’re pioneering new possibilities with Intelligent Experiences (iX) and bringing that vision to life, using data from inside and outside the classroom to enable more personalized interactions and proactive support for students.   

We look forward to sharing more news with you and discussing the special promotions available to HEITSA members.
