The information and case studies are grouped into 6 main themes: Digital Course Material, Inclusivity, Assessment and Feedback, Communication and Key Information, Employability and Student Voice.
Digital Capabilities
Digital capabilities are the skills, knowledge and understanding which help us to live, learn and work in a digital society. They help us to use a variety of technologies, appropriately and effectively in different spaces, places and situations.
Online Classroom/Webinars
Online classrooms and Webinars are a great way of collaborating with your students when face to face interaction is not possible. Here are the guides on what is a webinar and how to set up and run one.
Get Started with Course Resources
