Elsevier launches Sherpath, a mobile-first, personalised learning platform -

STM publisher Elsevier has launched Sherpath, a first-of-its-kind nursing and allied health, adaptive and mobile-first education platform focused on improving student outcomes.

Elsevier experts created Sherpath to intersperse flexible content modules with frequent assessments to support just-in-time remediation and successful progression throughout the curriculum. With a mobile-friendly interface, adaptive technology, a recommendation engine, machine learning and sophisticated reporting tools, Sherpath delivers a highly personalised, integrated experience for students and instructors.

For the past year, Sherpath has been used in pilot programs at 26 higher education institutions across the country and in a variety of program types. In addition to Nursing Fundaments, the platform also offers collections for three other topics in Nursing (Health Assessment, Pharmacology, and Dosages and Calculations) as well as Medical Assisting. Additional course collections for Nursing covering Maternity, Paediatric, and Medical Surgical are slated to be added in the Fall of 2016.
