Deep dive into how Delphinium works:
What does a face-to-face class have that online course materials are missing?
The answer is "You".
Online education is missing all that our teachers bring to motivate and engage your students in the room. The way you capture students' attention; your personality and how you "connect" with students, and keep things interesting and fun; your ability to "catch students doing the right thing" and celebrate success; the time you take to guide students to higher performance and shepherd struggling students; how you give students the chance to express themselves and connect with other students—their friends; and the way you help students feel what needs to be done NOW.
Teachers help students grow as learners, build confidence, stay on task, and work well with others; and as a result, your students learn more, get better grades and find more success and completion. With Delphinium, you can have all of this in online education too! Delphinium makes the online portion of your class more "YOU" and helps students WANT to learn. The results are dramatic improvements in completion and performance!
All this and Delphinium only takes 15 minutes to install, you don't have to change your current online materials in any way, and there is practically no maintenance!
Return on investment
For many schools, legislatures and other stakeholders expect results for their investment. Let's consider a hypothetical example: A large university or school district can have an annual budget of $250M to cover all of the expenses, including buildings, grounds, teachers, administrators, etc. and they might produce 3,700 graduates a year.
With a little math, we can see that each graduate costs ~$67,000!
If we could use Delphinium to improve the graduation rate by just 1%, 37 more students would graduate a year, lowering the costs per graduate by $670 which would result in $2.5M spent more efficiently EVERY year!
If we want to use a more conservative estimate and improve graduation by just .1%, the result is still $250K spent more efficiently every year.
The investment in Delphinium has a clear connection to being a better steward of the resources we manage for our stakeholders, and more important, Delphinium yields a better investment in our students!
