Cohort-Based Design

Modality used at MIT, Johns Hopkins, Harvard, and other institutions produces higher learning and better knowledge retention

Greater Accountability and Commitment

Harvard's transition of its case-method online to peer collaboration increased completion rates to 85%, from 3-6%.

MIT research found online course dropout rates of 96% vs 96% completion rate with cohort groups.

More Collaboration and Innovation

Founding director of MIT Teaching & Learning Laboratory, Dr. Lori Breslow, found students collaborating together as in cohorts scored higher than average. The dynamic environment and exposure to new ideas resulted in higher levels of innovation

Higher Motivation and Engagement

Keith Humphreys, Stanford professor of psychiatry, found group programs more effective due to the social interaction and collective emotional support.

Professor of psychology, Spencer Kagan, found interactive processing the most powerful approach to comprehension and retention, when “students engage in interaction with partners producing new ideas and points of view.

Dramatically Enhanced Learning

A 2019 Harvard study, found students scored higher following active learning sessions, retaining more knowledge and actually learning more.

Psychologists and neuroscientists discovered better learning outcomes with this “interleaving” learning - forcing students to intentionally switch between different modalities, topics, ideas, exercises, breakouts, role-playing, discussions, debates, and activities, rather than focus on single subjects.
