Our primary focus is courseware that applies to gateway courses. However, we recognize that various types of instructional products are used broadly and can be important drivers of students’ learning. As CourseGateway evolves, we will include additional product categories in the platform. Related review frameworks will be developed to support the expanding product catalog.

Products are constantly evolving. That's why we have established a process through which products can be resubmitted by suppliers to CourseGateway for re-review after a material update or refresh. Our aim is to publish new and updated product reviews frequently to ensure institutional users have the most recent information during key adoption cycles.

We recognize that adding course-specific content reviews will offer users even richer information to aid their decision-making. To support future updates, we are exploring ways to include reviews that illuminate the topics, sequences, and learning objectives within course-specific instances of featured products and related content.

Results in the classroom are not solely attributable to the selection of a high-quality product that fits a given context. Effective implementation is key (and difficult). That's why CourseGateway is exploring how to best curate research, resources, services, and crowdsourced input to ensure users get the most out of courseware products.

The more voices that contribute to CourseGateway, the better. That's why we are evaluating robust mechanisms for capturing faculty and student feedback on products and their implementation. The fusion of perspectives–from seasoned digital learning practitioners who are experienced with products, to faculty who are teaching gateway courses with featured courseware, to students who are using those products–will create a rich set of data and insights supporting decision makers, institutional users, and suppliers.
