Digital education workshops

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.

To find out how the Digital Education team can help and support academic staff, please visit the Digital Education Intranet (staff only).

What people say

Workshop attendee

"It provided a great overview of the accessibility issues we need to consider and how to both embed simple practices into the development of resources and ensure that we are aware of issues that may affect specific learners."

Guest session requester

"The kind of work that you led this afternoon, and the discussions that came out of that, were exactly the kind of work and thinking the university should be doing. It was such a fabulous session, and I can't thank you all enough for the thoughtful and thought-provoking work you put into this."
