What is a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE)?
• A virtual learning environment (VLE) is an online set of teaching and learning tools designed to enhance a student's learning experience.
• The time and place of learning is flexible
• Learning becomes increasingly more personalised with the learner at the centre.

What is a Managed Learning Environment (MLE)?
• The virtual learning environment is connected to the Schools Information Management System (SIMS)
• Data can be transferred from SIMS to the VLE e.g. names; courses; timetables, attendance data etc.
• Data can be transferred from the VLE to SIMS e.g. assessment data etc.

What are the challenges?• I don’t know how to use a VLE/MLE.• I don’t have access to a computer.• It’s not always easy to get to a computer.• Some of the pupils don’t have a computer at
home.• I don’t have enough curriculum time to use it in
my subject• I achieve excellent results in my subject without
using a VLE/MLE
