A case study of the development of a blended learning package which includes self-guided distance learning based on Google.
A toolkit for, and case study exploring, a project that placed teacher staff in industry work placements to accrue experience, then cascaded their experiences to colleagues, and ultimately endeavoured to improved students' learning experiences.
Abingdon and Witney College worked with industry/vocational experts to deliver outstanding teaching, learning, and assessment (OTLA) in programming for robotics and automation and simultaneously upskill college staff in an area of engineering critical to the future of the sector. Selecting a mandatory, externally assessed BTEC engineering unit which required programming expertise outside of that held by the college’s engineering and computing staff, the project paired an industry expert and a teacher to co-deliver the programming elements of the BTEC unit.
This outstanding teaching, learning and assessment (OTLA) project developed a series of projects for use in the training of Civil Engineers and Building Services Engineers.
Cheshire College South and West outstanding teaching, learning, and assessment (OTLA 2) project in 2016/17 focused on using information and learning technology to improve teaching and learning in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects, including engineering, construction and motor vehicle.
As part of the OTLA National Technical Programme, Harlow College worked with a group of other providers to develop a CPD package that aimed to improve teaching, learning and assessment in Engineering, Manufacturing and Construction.

Technical Route - Engineering and manufacturing:
One of the barriers to developing maths and English skills during work placement is a lack of awareness and in depth understanding of how maths and English GCSE’s and FS link to occupational areas within the 15 technical routes. These flyers attempt to summarise that mapping. Job roles are considered, recognising the importance of the technical skills that employers need plus promoting maths and English skills under calculation and communication.
