LEaD this year are developing and sharing expertise around inclusive learning - I wonder if Wolverhampton would come and do a piece at our conference learning@city in June? This project will deliver a new module around the idea of inclusive teaching that will be available for the professional development of teaching and support staff.

This clip shows a real lecture where Personal Response System and interactive teaching with peer instruction are used effectively in Physics teaching. For those teaching large classes and/or Science and Engineering this is a great demonstration of the technique.

The Spring 2014 issue of this bi-annual e-learning journal published by the Learning and Teaching Institute at the University of Hertfordshire contains useful research on the educational use of blogs and wikis and the use of quizzes for formative assessment.

Good breakdown and explanation of Blended Learning as an approach to learning and teaching. This combines and aligns learning undertaken in face to face sessions with learning opportunities created online.

This report has been developed as part of our research project Flexible Pedagogies: preparing for the future. Technology-enhanced learning is one of five main focus strands embedded within the theme of flexible learning. It offers a summary and analysis of the current state of play, as well as recommendations for developing robust and appropriate flexible pedagogies with a view to influencing policy, future thinking and change within the rapidly-shifting landscape of learning and teaching in HE.

Sandra, thank you for sharing this report. I hope to find some good insights for our "new" topic, final project and life in HE!

Humanism - Carl Rogers - "best known contribution - the 'core conditions' for facilitative (counselling and educational) practice - congruence (realness), acceptance and empathy)." "We cannot teach another person directly; we can only facilitate his learning"

This blog post shares students views' on mobile learning from a survey carried out at the University of Liverpool. One of the most interesting aspects of this post is the summary of student views in response to the question; 'How would you expect to use mobile devices at University?'

Thomas thank you for sharing. I wonder whether digital natives and "others" would have different opinion? Also I can not guess on how much of a difference would UG students have to part time PG students. Do you have any idea on that or maybe a good resource to look at?

This web and pdf resource from University College Dublin, offers helpful guidance on structuring your modules and considering what the best sequence for when and how students might access resources including the blend of content, activities and resources.

Thomas, blended learning is something i am focused onto in this phase of my Project development. Thank you for sharing this source.

an interesting debate on the effectiveness of students evaluation
