 <\/p>\n

We also asked what other technologies staff would like to use in their teaching. There was no overwhelming response to any single technology but blogs, wikis and teaching content delivered by mobile devices scored highest. Similarly wikis, blogs and lectures available on mobile phones and other devices such as iPods were the most popular tools for learning identified in the student survey along with interactive Flash-based activities.<\/p>\n

If you would like to see some of these tools in action, please sign up for the Friday afternoon event, its not too late and also put your name down to get\u00a0 involved in sample courses we are going to set up on Blackboard 9 and Moodle<\/p>\n

Please get in touch via the blog ASAP<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
