Innovative e-learning practice case studies
These case studies have been produced by a team led by Dr Andrew Ravenscroft of the Learning Technology Research Institute (LTRI) at London Metropolitan University. Offering ‘enabling representations’ for practitioners across the sectors covered by the e-Learning and Pedagogy strand, their primary purpose is to provide information and insights into innovative e-learning practice that can enable similar approaches to be adopted, where appropriate.
Where the practice described is based on the use of specific tools, the case studies still identify generic messages for practitioners seeking to increase their knowledge and understanding of the impact of technologies on the learning process. However, for the widest possible analysis of the factors at play, and to better understand the relationship between context, practice and personalities that occurred in these instances of e-learning practice, a dialogue with the case study researchers or the practitioners at the institutions concerned is recommended. Contact email addresses are provided at the conclusion of each case study.
The secondary aim of this project was to test and, where necessary, refine the evaluative templates that emerged from the toolkit framework developed within the e-Learning Models Desk Study and through ‘Effective Practice with e-Learning’. The case studies can be downloaded as Word documents.
The case study questionnaire used in the interviews and the JISC case study template are provided. See further information about the project of which these case studies formed a part.
