Learning Technology Team
We support staff wishing to use technology in their teaching and learning. This includes guidance and help in producing resources in a variety of formats, some for face to face use, others for on-line or remote use. We hold workshops for staff to see how various tools and concepts work and will work with individuals or schools to enable staff to become confident in using the technology. Much of our work involves supporting Blackboard, the online learning system, integrating different resources eg Panopto, Turnitin and troubleshooting problems.
