Ongoing work...
SLIDA - supporting learners in a digital age
This is an ongoing project led by Oxford Brookes University. The SLIDA project is investigating how institutions are creating and enabling opportunities that promote the development of effective learning in a digital age. The main deliverables of the study are 10 institutional case studies and a final report with recommendations for further and higher education on how to develop effective institution-wide strategies and practices which better support effective learners in a digital age.
Digital Literacies Pilot Materials
JISC has provided funding to support the sharing of practice and piloting of materials that emerged from the Learners Experiences of e-Learning programme and the LLiDA project. These materials are intended to support institutional and curriculum development in the area of supporting digital learners.
Student Materials
We are pulling together examples of materials developed for students from both the original exemplars and from the above two initiatives. Feel free to suggest resources to add to this page.
The wiki is not open for editing by the public but these pages can be read without a password.
