• Collaboration for Success

    On Monday 28th March a new work-based MA Education Programme, from the Faculty of Education, was approved (with some conditions) at Institutional validation and notably received a commendation for the “teamwork and the holistic approach to the intelligent use of technology”. This is welcome recognition of the invaluable collaborations between Faculties and Learning Services which help assure an excellent student learning experience.

    Thanks from the proposing team to Hannah and Meg for their contributions with regards to the VLE and other learning technologies are also extended to the wider Learning Services team who work with the Faculty to provide excellent information and media resources and learner support.

    On the 29th March the Learning Technology Development Team are offering their second staff information exchange session in this series:

    Coming of Age: Professionalising the Blog

    EdgeHill News 21Mar11 screen captureDo you have an image and message you need to get out to a wider audience? Are you a blogger or thinking about starting a professional blog that focuses on aspects of academic practice?

    Blogs are now a mainstream social media tool used to promote the ‘business’ of Edge Hill.

    As an information/education tool blog owners are increasing concerned with blog ‘etiquette’, editorial guidelines where there are multiple authors and finding better ways of improving ‘discoverability’ and impact.

    This session will bring together current and prospective bloggers to discuss the pros, cons and pitfalls of starting, maintaining and promoting your own blog.

    To join the discussion staff can follow this link to reserve a place on the session:
