Who are we?
We support the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences with their teaching and
learning needs by working with staff to build pedagogical understanding and
knowledge and develop their ability to use technologies to enhance teaching and
learning. We provide research based support and work to enable staff to make
appropriate choices in using technologies that will improve teaching and
learning experiences. To this end, we work in terms of a distributed learning
model that makes use of a variety of delivery formats and mediums - print,
digital, online, and traditional face to face delivery methods that help
students to learn.
What drives us?
We are driven by the philosophy of being learning led and technology enabled.
This means that we emphasise good teaching and learning practices and we
encourage use of technologies only when they will enhance teaching and learning.
We are active in research with a focus on evaluating and improving learning
designs for flexible and distance teaching.
