In pilot initiative, Strayer University launched in-house film studio to create content that drives online learning and student attainment outcomes
The initial results of Strayer University’s new approach to online education, Strayer Studios, which features interactive, cinematic curricula produced by Emmy Award-winning film producers, show improvement in student engagement and persistence. Launched in 2015, the online learning platform connects curricula with episodic, documentary-style films that are relevant and relatable to students.

Strayer estimates that 52,000 classes will have been delivered in the Studios format by the end of 2017. That number is expected to double by the spring of 2018 as the University introduces new stories and classes.
The model was developed by a team of in-house filmmakers, producers, course designers, and faculty to help make challenging course material more accessible to students.
“The challenge was, how do we grab a student’s attention? We thought a lot about binge-viewing and not being able to wait for the next episode of a show. Why can’t we do that with academic content?” said Brian Jones, president of Strayer University. “This new approach to online learning is receiving positive initial feedback, which has important implications about how the Strayer Studios approach can improve student outcomes long-term.”
Despite the rapid growth of online education, students who take online courses can often lag behind their in-class-only peers in performance and degree attainment. Strayer designed its Studios curriculum to change this trajectory by creating course content that students would actively seek—leading to the concept of television-style, binge-worthy content.
The Strayer Studios platform also provides real-time data about each student interaction with the course material, enabling Strayer to promptly incorporate feedback and adapt course material much faster, often immediately. Initial findings include:
