Good use of technology comes from good teachers

Learners don’t always know how to use technology to effectively support their learning
“To begin with it was a bit daunting…. different from regular essays… but I found it really good.”

Context is key
“The seminars we did with [Lecturer A] were really good and helpful and they tried to make us comfortable with the technology we were using.”

Social tools can help build group rapport
“I ended up talking a lot more to people that I normally work with and they probably wouldn’t talk to you in class at all.”

Use of technology can be more rewarding but requires more work
“[T]he easier option is to write an essay but you learn more from the group.”

Lessons for the sectorBenchmarking must not be a box ticking exercise
Many small scale projects are better than one big one
Understanding the student experience is key
The student experience needs to feed back into curriculum design
The idea of Digital Natives is a myth
If you want to be excellent, you need to study excellence
