This curriculum project aimed to improve achievement in A level Biology, a significant factor in which was the very varied level 2 science knowledge and skills of students. M-learning facilitated this through personalised learning and active/interactive independent learning that both enthused and challenged the students.
A case study exploring a project that aimed to enable learners to develop skills in recognising and recording achievements and progression through digital technologies.
The KODE project aimed to provide practical, accessible and sustainable resources to support teaching teams to translate models of blended curriculum delivery into concrete learning experiences. It concentrated on seven specific models which had
emerged from the earlier JISC-funded Curriculum Delivery KUBE project.
This project sought to improve engagement with new, hard-to-reach, younger learners by providing introductory courses in i-media technology at a community location in a deprived area. The project improved links in the community and with the mentor organisation, as well as generating the expertise and software to offer this type of course in the future.
This case study shows how the Bridge Education Centre was able to use increased ICT provision to effectively support both onsite provision as well as offsite mentor-based provision to harder to reach young people, and facilitate the expansion of this provision.
This case study sets out how a Virtual Classroom was used to facilitate remotely delivered Key Skills workshops for those learners who are unable (or unwilling) to attend formal workshops. The key objective was to engage with learners to maintain ‘timely success’ rates and to do so with a reduction in the cost of delivery.
Equality and Diversity Partnership Project Fund final case study for Boston College
This case study explores how one cluster are working together to to seek out and develop high quality experiences of the workplace for a number of young people with complex and multiple needs.
This project will establish a new regional cooperative model of blended ITE that supports flexible access to a wide range of stakeholders within the LL sector. The project will train teacher educators to develop innovative, personalised and accessible new programmes that deliver effective training for English, Maths and STEM teachers.
The five strands of the project to deliver from September 2012 are:
A. A blended learning free standing introductory course (PTLLS) for the first year Planning and Enabling Learning module of the DTLLS (CertEd/PGCE) programme to students working in different contexts in the lifelong learning sector through City Lit.
B. Blended elements into the DTLLS Year 2 on City Lit ITE courses.
C. An introductory online module for new Mentors at level 3.
