Blended Learning Essentials is an open course for Vocational Education and Training funded by the Ufi Trust and delivered on Futurelearn.
Major changes face us across sectors, from area based reviews and development of Apprenticeships in the Further Education system to how we demonstrate excellence in teaching and research in Higher Education. These challenges provided the context for this symposium. The key question explored was how organisational culture can enable effective innovation in Learning Technology - innovation that goes beyond small pilots or islands of best practice.
This week we are seeing the start of the Futurelearn course Blended Learning Essentials: Getting started - A free course for the Vocational Education and Training sector to promote effective practice and pedagogy in blended learning. The course is open to all and by the end of the course, you’ll be able to:
use a range of effective blended learning practices and pedagogies to improve your learners’ experience and attainment
Today an open online conversation was launched to discuss recommendations from the FELTAG, the Further Education Learning Technology Action Group, convened by Minister of
State for Skills and Enterprise, Matthew Hancock at the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills. ALT has contributed to the work of the group throughout the year and we are now calling for our members and the wider community to engage with the conversation at http://feltag.org.uk/ .
