AIH is proud to present Web-based educational system for learning Python programming. All students who are enrolled in the unit Foundations of programming can use the adaptive Web-based system designed by the University of Pittsburgh. It supports open learner modelling and different types of learning content. It tracks student activity and provides recommendations and feedback to the student.

In this research project, we plan to analyse data obtained from applying the adaptive platform that provides access to different types of learning resources including problems, quizzes, examples, reading material, visualisations, and simulations. A wide range of adaptative technologies (including adaptive navigation, intelligent tutoring, adaptive recommendation, etc.) is integrated to support personalised learning.

Learner behaviour in the system will be observed. All the actions made, problems solved, and visited animated examples will be analysed. By analysing the students’ interactions with the system, we will be able to understand their interests, intentions, goals, and knowledge level. The study will contribute to a better understanding of how weekly practice with the system during the course correlated with encouraging effect on engagement and efficiency, helping students to complete more practice content faster, and easier.

We expect higher learning gain by encouraging students to use the additional educational resources provided through the system and improving students’ learning experience.

From the studies conducted at Pittsburgh, USA, and Novi Sad, Serbia, significant parameters were extracted and they will be compared to the study being performed at our institution, AIH, Sydney.

The safety and wellbeing of all our students is a priority.

The Australian Institute of Higher Education is following advice from the Federal Government and NSW Department of Health.

Any students who have travelled to China should follow the advice of the Chinese Government and avoid travel if they are ill. We will support them if they are unable to travel to Sydney in time for the start of T1, 2020.

We advise staff and students to avoid travelling to the Hubei province until further notice.

On campus, students or staff who are feeling unwell are being advised to phone a general practitioner or their local hospital for information.

We also remind staff and students to follow the basic hygiene advice below to stay healthy:

• Using soap or alcohol-based hand wash frequently and washing hands for at least 20 seconds each time;
• Covering their mouth or nose if sneezing or coughing with a flexed elbow and disposing of tissues immediately;
• Avoiding contact with anyone who is unwell, including avoiding areas where there are people sneezing
• Not attending study or work if they’re unwell.

We held our 2nd Alumni Event at The Rawson Bar on 9th May. We welcomed Antonio Tirado who passed on his knowledge of Negotiation Skills for Organisations. It was a great opportunity for our Alumni to network and reconnect with former colleagues. Thank you to all Alumni and Academics who attended and we hope to see you at future events!

We had a full house for our CPA Presentation with guest speaker Anthony Matis. Thank you to Anthony for your engaging and informative presentation to our students regarding their different options and pathways they can pursue with their Bachelor of Accounting from AIH. Thanks to all students who attended and we look forward to seeing you at future industry events like this!

On 13 April we welcomed Anthony Ellard and Madelaine Cook from the Australian Computer Society to AIH Campus. They provided their insight on the importance of businesses adapting to the ever evolving technology today. Thank you to our guests and all of the students who attended!
