Using Technology to Support Postsecondary Student Learning

Each session will focus on one recommendation from the guide:

  • Session 1: Use communication and collaboration tools to increase interaction among students and between students and instructors.
  • Session 2 (March): Incorporate technology that models and fosters self-regulated learning strategies.
  • Session 3 (April): Use varied, personalized, and readily available digital resources to design and deliver instructional content.
  • Session 4 (May): Use technology to provide timely and targeted feedback on student performance.
  • Session 5 (June): Use simulation technologies that help students engage in complex problem-solving.

Message from the Vice President Academic & Student Affairs

Iọkwe and welcome, CMI Navigators!

Whether you are a new, returning, or continuing student, we are so glad to have you join us as you undertake your educational journey. As happy as we are to have you here, we hope that we will be able to help you complete this part of your journey efficiently so that you and your family can gain the benefits of being a college graduate sooner. The most important thing you can do to reach that goal is to make sure that you understand the requirements of your program. The program pages in this catalog will list all the requirements, but if you have any questions, you can meet with your faculty advisor for assistance. If you’re not sure who your advisor is, you can talk to your department chair. Your advisor can also help you make a plan so that you will always know how close you are to graduation. If you are a full-time student, we recommend that you take at least 15 credits every semester. We call this #15toFinish. In 2021-2022, we saw our largest summer enrolment ever; summer courses also help you graduate sooner.

This is an exciting time to be at CMI. In 2021-2022, we had our first Adult Basic Education graduations on Wotje and Kili; we hope to see college-level graduates on Wotje soon. We also opened the Santo Sub-Centre to offer Adult Basic Education and workforce development training. In the spring, ACCJC approved our substantive change application to make the Ebeye Centre into the Kwajalein Campus: the first full programs we will be offering there are the Certificate of Completion in Construction Trades and the Certificate of Completion in Automotive Service Technology. These programs are designed to meet local workforce needs. There are several other news programs in various stages of development as well.

Remember, everyone who works at CMI is here to support you and ensure that you have the best environment for learning, but ultimately learning is your responsibility. Be sure to attend class or, if you can’t, talk to your instructor. Do your best work on assignments and submit them on time. Visit your instructor during office hours and ask for help from the Academic Support Program tutors. Asking for help shows strength, not weakness: you just have to take the first step.
