What’s Lumen OHM?
Lumen Online Homework Manager (OHM) is a flexible math homework engine with instructional text and video, algorithmically-generated assessments, machine grading, and immediate feedback for students.
OHM is simple to use for faculty and students. It integrates well with Blackboard, Canvas, D2L Brightspace, and Moodle. OHM compares favorably to MyLabs Math and WebAssign in cost and the ability to customize for your classroom needs.
What you bring to the table
- Minimum of two instructors teaching corequisite math courses with Lumen OHM in fall 2018
- Collaboration on student outcome analysis using anonymized learning data (drop/withdrawal rates, passing rates, grades, demographics) to validate solution efficacy
