Learning Technologies Online

Technology use in support of teaching is becoming increasingly prevalent at all levels of education. Learning Technologies, designed for teaching staff and e-learning teams, will explore the ways in which technology can transform teaching and learning, examine the features of a wide range of current digital learning tools and resources, and help staff determine how best to blend traditional and online teaching delivery, methods and resources to meet their learners’ needs.

Comprising over ten hours of media-rich, interactive material, Learning Technologies will help to keep staff up-to-date with recent developments to meet student demand for technology-enhanced learning in today’s competitive higher education environment.

Teaching Online

This program is designed to provide lecturers with the knowledge and skills they need to design and teach effective and engaging online courses.

It will investigate the differences between face-to-face and online instruction, guide participants through the basics of online course design and pedagogy, introduce a range of technology tools, and provide advice on supporting students who are studying online.

The resulting improvement in online course quality, flexibility and efficiency will enhance the student experience, reduce drop-out rates and save money.

Each three-hour online course will be supplemented by a further six hours of optional activities (making 46 hours in total) which encourage faculty to apply newly-gained knowledge to their own instruction and to build a personal development portfolio.
