About Digital Education
The Digital Education team helps staff use digital tools for teaching and learning. Digital Education means applying information and communication technologies in different educational settings, such as online, face-to-face or blended learning. The team supports staff with using Moodle, the core Virtual Learning Environment, and other technologies in their practice. The team also offers advice and training on embedding classroom technologies, designing the curriculum with technology, evaluating and improving the student experience of Digital Education, and conducting research and case studies on Digital Education. The team analyses student feedback on Digital Education from the Internal Student Survey.
