Hosted by The Moodle Team from RCT & University of Glamorgan at ESIS, Nantgarw.

In April 2010 Rhondda-Cynon-Taf entered Phase II of the very successful Moodle project with nearly 70 schools involved and using Moodle for a wide range of activities to enhance learning and teaching at all stages. To celebrate some of the exceptional work that is going on, we are holding a seminar at ESIS on 2nd July.

The event will start with lunch and include presentations from primary and secondary schools, the special needs sector and an overview of how the Local Authority sees how Moodle will develop to support its work in raising standards. There will also be an opportunity to share what’s been learnt and pick up some Moodle Top Tips.

The majority of HE-level work-based learning at the University of Glamorgan involves either work-based projects or work placements both of which aim to increase graduate employability.  There are also work-based learning programmes for individuals already in employment providing them with the opportunity and flexibility to obtain a higher education qualification focused around their specific area of work.  An example of this is the MAPD run by Glamorgan Business School.

The University is preparing to re-launch Blackboard with an enhanced feature set and improved look and feel. 

Blackboard Solutions Architect Steve Clarke will demonstrate these enhancements to our VLE, focusing on:

Overview of differences between current and enhanced systems

The implications for Academics

Benefits of new system

Benefits of content collection feature

Ease of Use of the new system

Web 2.0 features

Mash-ups (existing and potential)

Additional features (such as Connect and Mobile)

Presented by Trevor Price (CELT/AT)

J233, Treforest campus

This seminar provides an overview of one lecturer’s journey along the blended learning continuum: from a practicing academic who used only minimal blended learning components, to one who has led the development of a fully at-a-distance post-graduate course fully utilising the Blackboard learning environment.

 1. The module-based Campus Pack tools are now live and ready for use on all Blackboard modules and organisations. This exciting initiative will enable staff and students to add and develop their own content within the VLE, a first for our students.

One year on from the launch of the Campus Pack (Wikis, Blogs and Podcasting) Web 2.0 technologies within the Blackboard environment, this seminar brings together five members of staff from around the University who have actively engaged their students in the use of social media tools for enhanced communication and the collaborative creation and sharing of ideas.

This event is designed to highlight the Studiocode software, demonstrating its diversity and how it has benefited the Coaching Science team. However, Studiocode video analysis software is so versatile, that it can be used and designed to analyse anything that you can point a camera at.
