data-block-key="ecet7">Learning analytics refers to the measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of data about student progress and how the curriculum is delivered.</p><p data-block-key="1pb6c">Students using digital resources and systems generate data that can be analysed to reveal patterns predicting success, difficulty or failure which enable teachers - and students - to make timely interventions.</p><p data-block-key="9th48">Importantly for this guide, these metrics can also support a more accurate, data-informed approach to curriculum design.</p><p data-block-key="5022f">Already, colleges and universities are using dashboards which provide see-at-a-glance evidence of resource usage and student engagement.</p><p data-block-key="en6vq">This makes possible a more fluid, dynamic response to curriculum development. Essentially, you don’t need to wait for a distant course review to make any changes that are necessary.</p><p data-block-key="c4820">Measures derived from this data can also support the institution’s submission for the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF), be used in preparation for inspection or form part of routine quality assurance.</p><p data-block-key="2ahm1">The benefits of analytics for staff, students and institutions are becoming clearer, but our research also argues for care over how data is interpreted and presented to staff and students. This is an area where we are still gaining understanding, particularly of the <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20240406100246/https://repository.jisc.ac.uk/5661/1/Learning_Analytics_A-_Literature_Review.pdf">ethics</a> of using student data.</p><h3 data-block-key="f4ffa">Why analytics matter</h3><p data-block-key="cj38t">With the benefit of analytics, large higher education institutions can spot differences in the amount of teaching and assessments used to deliver learning outcomes of the same credit value on different courses and disciplines. Equally, this kind of data analysis can reveal examples of over-teaching or over-assessment.</p><p data-block-key="2f550">A brief overview of learning outcomes can reveal similar discrepancies. Often you find that some learning outcomes on modular courses are assessed multiple times in different parts of the course whilst others are ignored.</p><p data-block-key="bcbcp">Even a review of course information in a virtual learning environment (VLE) can be instructive. Imagine how useful it would be next time you are designing a unit of learning to know which learning activities have been used the most, which have resulted in high achievement, and which presented the greatest difficulty.</p><p data-block-key="cv3kg">Access to this kind of information enables you to improve the design of your programme, course or unit of learning year on year - and to track the impact of any changes you make.</p><h3 data-block-key="2chnv">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="9cej7"><p>“There is an increasing number of studies using control groups that show that retention and other measures of student success can be positively influenced by the use of learning analytics.”<br/><strong>Niall Sclater, consultant in learning analytics</strong></p></blockquote><p data-block-key="45jui"><a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20240406100246/https://repository.jisc.ac.uk/6560/1/learning-analytics_and_student_success.pdf">Read our 2017 briefing on learning analytics and student success (pdf).</a></p><h3 data-block-key="6t8a3">Be inspired: case studies</h3></div><section class="mt-10 mb-10 border-t-jiscAlto border-t-[.0625rem] border-r-0 border-b-0 border-l-0 border-solid" data-testid="expandable-group"><details style="background-color:#fff" class=" border-t-0 font-normal text-jiscBahamaBlue webkit-details-marker-hidden focus:text-jiscBlack focus:no-underline focus:bg-jiscDandelion focus:outline-transparent focus:outline focus:outline-4 focus-not-focus-visible-text-jiscBahamaBlue focus-not-focus-visible-underline focus-not-focus-visible-bg-transparent focus-not-focus-visible-outline-0 focus-not-focus-visible-hover-text-jiscRegalBlue active:text-jiscBlack border-b-jiscAlto border-b-[.0625rem] border-x-0 border-solid print:border-b-0" data-testid="expandable-block-5-expandable-1"><summary class=" font-normal text-jiscBahamaBlue webkit-details-marker-hidden focus:text-jiscBlack focus:no-underline focus:bg-jiscDandelion focus:outline-transparent focus:outline focus:outline-4 focus-not-focus-visible-text-jiscBahamaBlue focus-not-focus-visible-underline focus-not-focus-visible-bg-transparent focus-not-focus-visible-outline-0 focus-not-focus-visible-hover-text-jiscRegalBlue active:text-jiscBlack underline list-none cursor-pointer expandable-summary " data-testid="expandable-block-5-expandable-1-summary"><h2 class="flex items-center p-4 my-[unset] font-sans text-[1rem] antialiased font-normal leading-[1.5rem]" data-testid="expandable-block-5-expandable-1-heading-element"><span class="grow" data-testid="expandable-block-5-expandable-1-heading-content">Ulster University -

digital technologies, keep the following key questions in mind to ensure that your designs really do enhance your students’ achievement:</p><ul><li data-block-key="e1e2k">What are your institution’s strategic aims for learning, teaching and assessment?</li><li data-block-key="9unpq">What points for improvement have been identified in programme/module reviews or external inspection reports?</li><li data-block-key="58d5g">What learning outcomes are you trying to achieve?</li><li data-block-key="2d1jd">In what context will the learning take place?</li><li data-block-key="fmevt">What technologies are available to enhance learning?</li><li data-block-key="8mk6g">What support do you need?</li><li data-block-key="3joui">What do you already do well?</li></ul><p data-block-key="d63ci">The answers to these questions provide the building blocks for your choice of approach - see the approaches to learning design section. Getting the mix right will enable you to deliver a high-quality learning and assessment experience.</p><p data-block-key="ega17">Do not be surprised, however, if your design ‘template’ differs from context to context – one size does not fit all.</p><h3 data-block-key="3k2vv">Why digital quality processes matter</h3><p data-block-key="cqumd">Digital learning is increasingly embedded into quality assurance procedures. There are a number of reasons for this.</p><p data-block-key="cektu">Large institutions, in particular those offering modular programmes or courses split between different campuses, including as a result of mergers, need to provide parity of experience for all students and staff – for example, by ensuring consistent, comprehensive access to high-quality digital learning that has been fully ‘thought through’, as outlined above.</p><p data-block-key="34q1q">The need to improve assessment has led some higher education institutions to standardise the credit value of modules. Some have set a maximum number of learning outcomes and assessments for a certain number of credits and many more are working to ensure information about assessment is easily accessible to students and tutors. However, achievement of this goal depends on efficient and effective processing of data about the curriculum – another way in which digital technologies impact on quality assurance.</p><p data-block-key="eduub">Further education colleges are similarly working towards a standardised student experience by rolling out institution-wide technologies such as a new VLE, Office 365 or iPads. Such whole-scale change is often driven by the need to improve the quality of learning across all courses, but can only be achieved by embedding digital use into routine quality assurance and CPD processes.</p><h3 data-block-key="cfhll">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="cqor1"><p>"Quality matters - it is not about the percentage of online content but how effective the learning is." <strong>James Kieft, learning and development manager, Activate Learning</strong></p></blockquote><h3 data-block-key="fs07f"><strong>Be inspired: case studies</strong></h3></div><section

Without leadership and strategic direction, digital learning and assessment – and the benefits these can bring – are likely to only exist in dispersed ‘pockets of good practice’ rather than becoming the norm.</p><p data-block-key="3joa1">When implementing your strategy, aim for an open, supportive culture and instil a passion for good learning throughout the institution. Such a culture empowers teaching staff to experiment and provides the motivation to work through initial difficulties.</p><p data-block-key="5ur2b">Recognising this, many institutional leaders now participate in digital training sessions alongside their staff to demonstrate their commitment to the organisation’s strategic goals and to unite everyone behind the common goal of providing a high-quality learning experience for all students.</p><h3 data-block-key="cop77">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="f3ice"><p>“The digital student experience is not ‘one thing’ but is many faceted and born of complex and fluid relationships between different elements… Taking a strategic approach ensures the benefits of any interventions are realised.” <strong>Clare Killen, educational consultant</strong></p></blockquote><p data-block-key="77cvg">Read more in our <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20240406100246/https://www.jisc.ac.uk/guides/enhancing-the-digital-student-experience">guide to enhancing the student digital experience: a strategic approach.</a></p><h3 data-block-key="dfulq">Be inspired: case studies</h3></div><section class="mt-10 mb-10 border-t-jiscAlto border-t-[.0625rem] border-r-0 border-b-0 border-l-0 border-solid" data-testid="expandable-group"><details style="background-color:#fff" class=" border-t-0 font-normal text-jiscBahamaBlue webkit-details-marker-hidden focus:text-jiscBlack focus:no-underline focus:bg-jiscDandelion focus:outline-transparent focus:outline focus:outline-4 focus-not-focus-visible-text-jiscBahamaBlue focus-not-focus-visible-underline focus-not-focus-visible-bg-transparent focus-not-focus-visible-outline-0 focus-not-focus-visible-hover-text-jiscRegalBlue active:text-jiscBlack border-b-jiscAlto border-b-[.0625rem] border-x-0 border-solid print:border-b-0" data-testid="expandable-block-24-expandable-1"><summary class=" font-normal text-jiscBahamaBlue webkit-details-marker-hidden focus:text-jiscBlack focus:no-underline focus:bg-jiscDandelion focus:outline-transparent focus:outline focus:outline-4 focus-not-focus-visible-text-jiscBahamaBlue focus-not-focus-visible-underline focus-not-focus-visible-bg-transparent focus-not-focus-visible-outline-0 focus-not-focus-visible-hover-text-jiscRegalBlue active:text-jiscBlack underline list-none cursor-pointer expandable-summary " data-testid="expandable-block-24-expandable-1-summary"><h2 class="flex items-center p-4 my-[unset] font-sans text-[1rem] antialiased font-normal leading-[1.5rem]" data-testid="expandable-block-24-expandable-1-heading-element"><span class="grow" data-testid="expandable-block-24-expandable-1-heading-content">Staffordshire University -

students to study for qualifications without attending classes.</p><p data-block-key="9ieih">More and more colleges and universities have used online learning to broaden their customer base and reduce their fixed costs. And increasingly, today’s time-poor and economically challenged students have been attracted by the flexibility of online distance learning.</p><p data-block-key="2p5b0">This mode of delivery can also enable an institution to maintain choice for students by offering low-enrolment courses or modules online.</p><p data-block-key="f9esq">However, the ubiquity of access students have to the internet can mask how fundamentally different an experience a wholly online model of learning can be. Both students and staff need support and training to gain the most from this mode of learning.</p><p data-block-key="e4a38">In general, it is best to be led by pedagogic purpose rather than the availability and appeal of particular technologies when deciding which approach to learning to adopt – see the section on principles.</p><p data-block-key="2vaeq">Nonetheless, partial or wholly online learning increases learner responsibility and control.

digital, how will you know you have achieved successful outcomes? Is success just about course completion?</p><p data-block-key="f09bt">In other parts of this guide, we look at how you develop good practice in digital learning and assessment. Here we invite you to envisage what success looks like.</p><p data-block-key="8dig6">There is overlap with the topics of digital capability and employability as we ask what qualities you would like your students to have as a result of studying at your organisation.</p><h3 data-block-key="96sm4">Why this matters</h3><p data-block-key="9jmok">It is important to consider the impact of digital learning designs on students and to discuss with them what they will gain from the models of learning you have adopted.</p><p data-block-key="2hvc5">Many students are challenged by the level of autonomy expected of them at college or university and some are unclear what they are achieving through independent learning. Equally, we can learn a lot from the strategies and approaches students have discovered for themselves.</p><p data-block-key="3pfde">Creating a dialogue around the theme of what successful digital learning looks like, and linking this to outcomes such as future employability, can address this issue. Defining success will also assist you in future curriculum planning.</p><h3 data-block-key="5fmel">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="4tq9h"><p>“Increasingly, learners expect their digital skills to be a resource for getting on in life, and getting an education. They have innovative learning habits of their own, and they have creative ideas about how educators could better support them.

Designing a new course or programme from scratch happens infrequently. More often than not, courses run for a long period of time and are only subject to review, reform or update at intervals.</p><p data-block-key="duea5">The overall learning aims of a course are thus interpreted many times by staff who teach elements of the course (see the section on modules) and in the day-to-day interaction with students as they complete learning activities (see the section on lessons).</p><p data-block-key="3tuat">In higher education in particular, modularisation of the curriculum has meant that not all staff will have experience of designing a whole course or programme.</p><p data-block-key="d8c15">Whole-scale changes to the curriculum have occurred more frequently in further education where government initiatives and reforms have had an impact in recent years.</p><h3 data-block-key="8augu">Why good course design matters</h3><p data-block-key="dlbj5">Students as consumers of learning are increasingly seeking good value from the courses they select. This means resolving issues presented by:</p><ul><li data-block-key="3ujfo">Multiple pathways and options – this can mean individual students having different experiences on the same course</li><li data-block-key="e1800">Different staff teaching small elements of a course – this can result in confusing variations in interpretation and pedagogic approach</li><li data-block-key="pb4l">Difficulty integrating work-based/placement elements of the course – this can mean breakdowns in communication, even isolation</li><li data-block-key="8jq7m">Modular courses and assignment bunching – modules setting assignments at the same time of the academic year cause an uneven distribution of effort and prevent students from applying feedback</li><li data-block-key="5nlaj">New syllabuses and frameworks – these need interpreting and translating into a coherent package for students in the most cost-effective way within the resources available.</li></ul><p data-block-key="91r8u">As a consequence, designing a whole course inevitably means working as a team and taking time out to plan together the learning activities students will experience. It also means thinking of learning design at a holistic level.</p><p data-block-key="7rrhp">Read the interview with Helen Beetham, consultant in higher education, who shares her views on the most effective approach to course design:</p><p data-block-key="7qpj"><a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20240406100246/https://repository.jisc.ac.uk/6787/1/helen-beetham-audio-transcript.pdf">Download interview transcript (pdf). </a></p><h3 data-block-key="2c2qh">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="9te6i"><p>“The initiation of course design is best facilitated by an all-day event involving all programme team members and associated stakeholders … (such as students and employers), if this can be ‘hosted’ by a specialist in learning and teaching, or at the very least, someone from outside of the normal programme team, this objectivity can sometimes be helpful.”<br/><strong>Paul Bartholomew, pro-vice chancellor (education), Ulster University</strong></p></blockquote><p data-block-key="57mat"><a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20240406100246/https://bcuassets.blob.core.windows.net/docs/The-Rough-Guide-to-Curriculum-Design-4th%20Edition.pdf">Read Birmingham City University's Rough Guide to Curriculum Design, 4th Edition (pdf).</a></p></div><section class="mt-10 mb-10 border-t-jiscAlto border-t-[.0625rem] border-r-0 border-b-0 border-l-0 border-solid" data-testid="expandable-group"><details style="background-color:#fff" class=" border-t-0 font-normal text-jiscBahamaBlue webkit-details-marker-hidden focus:text-jiscBlack focus:no-underline focus:bg-jiscDandelion focus:outline-transparent focus:outline focus:outline-4 focus-not-focus-visible-text-jiscBahamaBlue focus-not-focus-visible-underline focus-not-focus-visible-bg-transparent focus-not-focus-visible-outline-0 focus-not-focus-visible-hover-text-jiscRegalBlue active:text-jiscBlack border-b-jiscAlto border-b-[.0625rem] border-x-0 border-solid print:border-b-0" data-testid="expandable-block-43-expandable-1"><summary class=" font-normal text-jiscBahamaBlue webkit-details-marker-hidden focus:text-jiscBlack focus:no-underline focus:bg-jiscDandelion focus:outline-transparent focus:outline focus:outline-4 focus-not-focus-visible-text-jiscBahamaBlue focus-not-focus-visible-underline focus-not-focus-visible-bg-transparent focus-not-focus-visible-outline-0 focus-not-focus-visible-hover-text-jiscRegalBlue active:text-jiscBlack underline list-none cursor-pointer expandable-summary " data-testid="expandable-block-43-expandable-1-summary"><h2 class="flex items-center p-4 my-[unset] font-sans text-[1rem] antialiased font-normal leading-[1.5rem]" data-testid="expandable-block-43-expandable-1-heading-element"><span class="grow" data-testid="expandable-block-43-expandable-1-heading-content">Staffordshire University -

you need to know</h3><p data-block-key="cklbt">Courses or programmes of study are often broken down into smaller chunks of learning as modules or units.</p><p data-block-key="6fthb">In theory, modules are the building blocks that combine to form a coherent learning experience. They can also provide a convenient way of organising a complex curriculum and can offer efficiency gains – for example, when modules on a common topic are reused on different courses.</p><h3 data-block-key="62qfu">Why good module design matters</h3><p data-block-key="6k93t">In practice, a modular programme can result in a fragmented and unbalanced experience of the curriculum.</p><p data-block-key="7i9mf">Problems can also arise when courses are standardised to give all modules the same value. Simply requiring modules to be redesigned to a common pattern can produce artificially manufactured solutions.</p><p data-block-key="9qndc">Thus, while a modular programme is often promoted as a way of offering choice and flexibility for students, designing modules requires a macro-level response. A key finding from our research is that learning designers need dedicated time to fully think through how a redesign will work in all its elements – and, in particular, how it will be assessed.</p><p data-block-key="c5goq">What has proved particularly valuable in all parts of the sector is the card and storyboard approach pioneered by our Viewpoints project at Ulster University. This approach to designing whole programmes and modules allows teams to play with (ie visualise, undo and remake) a design until all the elements work effectively together. The ABC model from University College London is one such example.</p><h3 data-block-key="2bu1">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="4s2u4"><p>“Having all the programme team together in one room for two hours is very powerful because it helps people see the whole picture. Individual module designs can be presented to the rest of the team. The whole programme team can then discuss whether something is missing that will impact on the student experience, a meta-level discussion that encompasses the whole programme not just elements of

and feedback lie at the very heart of learning and teaching, so getting assessment and feedback right pays dividends both in terms of successful learning outcomes and improving student satisfaction.</p><p data-block-key="eh99q">One of the biggest shifts we have seen in learning design in recent years is towards assessment for learning, an approach that focuses on high-quality formative assessment and feedback rather than assessment of learning, typically at the end of a course or module.</p><h3 data-block-key="9h78s">Why good assessment design matters</h3><p data-block-key="43pdp">What we now know is that assessment for learning can encourage students to take responsibility for improving their own performance as they progress through a course or module.

Formats other than the written essay are harder to plagiarise too</li><li data-block-key="a6cfg">Ensure that learners can act on their feedback by making visible when all assignments in a modular programme are due. This helps avoid assignment bunching, evens out student effort and shows exactly how students are to be assessed</li><li data-block-key="2u8lj">Provide opportunities for self-testing.

data-block-key="clm91">Staff development is a crucial part of making learning and teaching fit for purpose in a digital age.</p><p data-block-key="3o4da">How you set up your initiative for digital learning is a matter of choice but some aspects will need to be in place before you start:</p><ul><li data-block-key="eg7qg">Planning for staff development is embedded in the organisation’s strategy for learning and teaching</li><li data-block-key="7agqm">There are clear goals and a timeline for their achievement</li><li data-block-key="82gjs">All staff understand their role in bringing your organisation’s digital goals to fruition and feel appreciated for taking part</li><li data-block-key="74k9j">Support is available in different forms: ‘away days’ for team planning, micro-learning videos for just-in-time support, IT helplines, peer mentoring, learning walks, student ambassador schemes are just some of the ways our research has shown work well in practice.</li></ul><p data-block-key="75dlf">Remember that if you introduce technology too early without adequate support and planning, it becomes a barrier to staff engagement that can be difficult to overcome.</p><p data-block-key="5p4up">Many experienced in staff development say it is best to identify first where you want to get to, and then decide how to get there, with the primary focus being on people rather than technology.</p><h3 data-block-key="i02t">Why this matters</h3><p data-block-key="f9kkc">Enabling staff to become digital professionals in their own right is essential to achieving your organisation’s vision for teaching and learning. This is so that staff are able to use appropriate digital tools in their role as educators and as professionals in their disciplines.</p><p data-block-key="9d033">Arguably the most important reason, however, is that staff who are digitally competent and pedagogically informed will be able to help their students to learn in ways that are appropriate and relevant to today’s digital world.</p><p data-block-key="662o4">Case studies in many sections of this guide yield insights into how institutions have achieved these goals through staff development. More are available in this section.</p><h3 data-block-key="e2ffu">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="9s5i1"><p>“Teachers need help with making effective design decisions that are pedagogically based and make appropriate use of digital technologies.” <strong>Gráinne Conole, educational consultant</strong></p></blockquote><p data-block-key="1f2ab"><a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20240406100246/https://www.slideshare.net/GrainneConole/the-7-cs-of-learning-design">Read more about the seven Cs of learning design</a> in Gráinne's presentation on SlideShare.</p><h3 data-block-key="25cqr">Be inspired -

for electronic management of assessment. As not all staff had the necessary skills to meet these objectives, Helen Dixon, NRC’s head of digital learning, has pioneered a micro-learning approach to staff development.</p><p data-block-key="7j6ni">This has meant creating a web of short, interconnected resources organised under topics rather than a linear course containing information an individual might not need. Bite-sized and flexible, these small ‘chunks of digital know-how’ can be shared readily via social media.</p><blockquote data-block-key="10hag"><p>“Staff can pick and mix what they feel comfortable with. In choosing what topics and activities they do, they feel in control over the pace and pathway of their learning. Face-to-face sessions can then be offered for the less confident.”<br/><strong>Helen Dixon, head of digital learning, Northern Regional College</strong></p></blockquote><p data-block-key="cgd45">See

institution’s infrastructure that support digital learning.</p><p data-block-key="34kmg">The changes experienced in this area in recent years shows just how great an impact the fast-changing technology scene can have on educational providers.</p><p data-block-key="97vn4">Almost ubiquitous ownership of smartphones and free cloud-based tools have now challenged the virtual learning environment (VLE) and desktop PCs as the way into online learning. Now investment in robust wifi connections and a ‘bring your own device (BYOD)’ policy are increasingly being adopted by colleges and universities to accommodate student preferences for flexible, anywhere-on-campus learning.</p><p data-block-key="1akhr">This in turn creates an obligation to ensure that students’ access to tools and learning materials is device-agnostic, that there are effective mechanisms to ensure acceptable use, and that students who do not own their own device are not disadvantaged.</p><p data-block-key="4t1ol">Furthermore, the same seamless access to essential resources and information is required from any of the institution’s sites, an issue many merged colleges and higher education providers have had to tackle.</p><h3 data-block-key="buntb">Why a robust digital infrastructure matters</h3><p data-block-key="4hf5d">Despite the costs and complexities of ensuring an infrastructure that is fit for purpose, many institutional leaders see their digital learning environment as a means of reaching out to and retaining students.</p><p data-block-key="68avu">And students who have to fit learning into increasingly demanding lifestyles expect to be well prepared while on course for the digital world beyond.</p><p data-block-key="5i12u">Staying ahead of the game in terms of digital environments is therefore something an educational provider can ill ignore, but given the range of tools now available to learners, many institutions support only a central core of technologies, providing a list of recommended learning tools hosted elsewhere as additional options.</p><p data-block-key="etlkd">Equally important to digital learning is high-quality content. For many colleges, that has meant installing platforms and tools that staff find intuitive and simple to use so that the student digital experience is consistent from course to course and teacher to teacher – an aspiration that is a challenging but nonetheless an essential part of realising your institution’s digital strategy.</p><h3 data-block-key="afrb8">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="37aa3"><p>“Consistency in the student experience of digital learning is a key aim for my team.

of the experience of digital learning.</p><p data-block-key="6gimj">Ideally, today’s learning spaces should be able to support a range of activities, online and offline, collaborative and individual, while also motivating and inspiring students and being adaptable to changing needs and agendas.</p><p data-block-key="cnitb">If your institution is planning a new build, technology, furniture and other forms of infrastructure can be integrated from the start to facilitate any approach to learning.</p><p data-block-key="f5vfg">Increasingly, this has meant providing independent, social and collaborative learning spaces adjacent to teaching spaces so that a continuous flow of learning ensues from formal classroom or lecture-based sessions to informal study.</p><p data-block-key="9h8do">However, our case studies also demonstrate that spaces can be reconfigured at low cost to achieve your digital learning goals. Making spaces work harder – for example by sharing spaces between disciplines – is another way of getting the most from investment in a new build.</p><h3 data-block-key="amgas">Why learning spaces matter</h3><p data-block-key="1e0if">Our research that shows that students who are using a variety of technologies in flexible ways in pursuit of clearly articulated learning goals are more likely to engage deeply with their learning and spend longer ‘on task’.</p><p data-block-key="5881f">In addition, many universities and colleges now see supporting business start-ups and entrepreneurial companies as a part of their core mission. Providing facilities that are fit for these purposes adds value to the local community, builds contacts with employers and bridges the gap between learning and the workplace.</p><p data-block-key="b5k7">And for students, an attractive, welcoming physical learning environment that is able to support the way they learn can be as important as any other aspect of college or university life.</p><h3 data-block-key="a0eb1">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="6opeb"><p>“Designing for the future is not easy. We know that it will be a technology-rich and social future but we cannot anticipate all future requirements. When designing learning spaces it is important that we build on what we already know to be good pedagogic practice and that we do not create barriers to doing things differently in the future.”

assessment design is the importance of dialogue and exchange of ideas within a community of learning designers. In fact, you could argue that learning design should never be other than a collaborative, social activity.</p><p data-block-key="ed175">Exemplars in this guide have illustrated the importance of meeting together as a team in one physical space to discuss and create designs for learning. We have also advocated that students should be participants in these sessions alongside teaching staff so that learning and assessment are seen from their perspective too.</p><p data-block-key="alvhi">But a learning design community does not always mean being in the same space at the same time.</p><p data-block-key="7obq5">Virtual spaces in which curriculum teams can discuss issues, develop knowledge and share successes and failures are also invaluable ways of generating and sustaining the design conversations which reflect the growing importance of making design processes both richer and more transparent.</p><h3 data-block-key="4dim2">What the experts say</h3><blockquote data-block-key="gkg8"><p>“Increased interest in learning design may be the result of the increasing demand on academics to show what they do, and how they do it, to their colleagues, their institution and to the students as well.” <strong>Nataša Perović, digital education adviser, University College London</strong></p></blockquote><p data-block-key="9de1c"></p></div><div style="background-color:#fff" class="mb-10 mt-10 " data-testid="embedded-media"><div class="pb-[56.25%] relative [&>iframe]:w-full [&>iframe]:absolute [&>iframe]:h-full [&>iframe]:border-[unset] [&>iframe]:top-0 [&>iframe]:right-0 [&>iframe]:bottom-0 [&>iframe]:left-0"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://web.archive.org/web/20240406100246if_/https://www.youtube.com/embed/Kx5M1H-QC_k?si=35NDQXMH09nZZM4x?rel=0" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer;
